I know this isn't a good sign. My temp dropped this morning. Not a huge amount, it's still above my cover line, but it's now at my 'normal' post-ovulation temp range, rather than the higher pregnancy range of temps.

Did anyone else continue charting their temps while they were pregnant? As I'm more prone to miscarriages than others, I wanted to keep charting so I could get a 'warning' if I was going to miscarry.

Just to make this day even more sh*tty, it's the 20th May - my due date

I charted for a few days and my temp dropped. I think it's the norm.

I looked in TCOYF and it says 'miscarrage'.

I didn't temp after O was confirmed or after I got a positive HPT mainly because I knew it would just make me worry. I bet one temp doesn't mean much. I would think it is a sustained drop that is a bad sign. I hope your temp comes back up tomorrow!

Thanks girls. I think I might temp over the weekend to see what happens, and if my temps stay low, I am going to ask for my scan to be a bit earlier to see if there is a heartbeat. I don't want this to drag out any longer than it has too.

If temps go back up again, I think I'll stop temping from Monday onwards... it's so easy to make myself stress out!

I'll be sad if I miscarry, but a small part of me will be happy - it will mean my body is doing what it is suppose to and miscarrying unbalanced babies... Meaning no termination.

When I miscarried, my temp dropped around five weeks, and below the coverline. but with this baby, my temps never got up to pregnancy high. They when up to after ovulation high, and after a few weeks when back down to exactly my coverline temp... and stayed there.

I don't think one lower temp is a big cause for worry. I know it's hard, but I think it's best not to temp because sooo many things can affect your temps and I don't even know if the temps stay high all throughout pregnancy.

lol! Good idea!

Last time, I just temped til I ran out of room on the page I was using... this time, I've gone over onto a new page.... So who knows - the exact same thing may have happened last time, but obviously I had no idea.

Thanks Alice, good to know your temps seem to be the same as mine.

Right, chilling out now

PS Morning sickness is getting worse each day... I guess that is a good sign.

Morning sickness is a great sign but even if that seems to fade, no worries as it can come and go!

I'm sorry I don't know much about the temp thing but I would assume that a continual decline in temps would mean more then just a single temp drop. I too suggest to stop temping lol

I didn't realise we were due on the same day either!

I'm doing okay today. I think the fact I am pregnant again is really helping me get through the day. My Mum just rang to say she was thinking of me too, so that was nice.
