Question

Temp dip at 4dpo - fall back rise?

Hello, i have had a temp drop today (4dpo) this is my first month taking my temps. I got abit stressed seeing my temp has lowered this morning. Took my temp at the same time, 6.40am the only difference is i didnt really sleep well lastnite. Could this be why it has dropped? AF is not due till the 3rd of April. I have read about fall back rise dips, could this be that at 4dpo?

Usually when u dont sleep well, temps are higher becuz ur body never fully hits "rest" mode. Dont worry about the drop, it could be a FBR (typically 2-4dpo), gotta wait n see what tomorrow's temp is.
Good luck! =))

Just looked at ur chart and yesterdays temp was down as well, so it wouldnt really be a FBR, thats a single temp dropping then rising, but this is still very normal. Hopefully it does go up tho, u dont want too many declines in a row.
I never got a msg, I wouldve replied. Hmmm...maybe it didnt send, this site has issues sometimes and msgs either dont send or send multiple times. Its a guessing game lol! =))

No no, it doesnt mean ur out at all...its just nice to see temps stay above the coverline, not hovering around it. But if it does lower again, I would start using opk's and bd'ing again, cuz O may not have occurred when initially thought. It does look like it did, but with temps falling, if they stay there then that would make the chart monophasic again. It should go up again tho, dont stress over it.

IMO I would remove your temps from CD11&CD15... I think your coverline is set a teeny bit too high given the rest of your temps. My chart is looking a bit wonky like yours btw lol and I'm also not sleeping so well the past few days so my temp isn't rising like it did last month.

According to FF I actually ovulated on cycle day 17 not 16 as I first thought, I am away to change my ovulation day to cycle day 17 and see what that does. I was ill from the 11th - 13th of March.
