Low BBT?? I'm worried.
Should I worry if I got a low temp this morning? I got BFP on Clear Blue pregnancy tests Sunday & this morning, but this morning my temperature was below coverline (97.7 versus 98.4-98.6 since O). Isn't that a bad thing when you're pregnant? I want to let myself be excited to be pregnant, but I'm worried now!!! Has anyone gotten a low BBT early on but went on to stay pregnant??? Can you send me sticky vibes please?? Thanks so much.

Re: Low BBT?? I'm worried.
This is probably going to sound ridiculous, but I have no idea what a BBT is.
I never did ovulation predictors, temping, or CM checks so I'm really unfamiliar.
But, best of luck!

Re: Low BBT?? I'm worried.
I don't want to freak you out, but a falling BBT can indicate a miscarriage. How far along are you? I actually had to stop temping shortly after I got my BFP because my BBT was fluctuating and I totally freaked. I stopped temping and had no problems with the pregnancy, so a falling BBT does not always indicate a problem.

Re: Low BBT?? I'm worried.
I could see if it was falling rapidly every day to be a little worried. Just like before your BFP, you temperature will not be the same everyday. You may have taken it at a differenet time in the morning, or the temperature in your room may have been off.
I would give it a couple of days and see how it goes.

Re: Low BBT?? I'm worried.
They always tell you to stop taking your temp once you get your BFP. Pregnancy hormones throw your temp all out of whack and your temps can fluctuate a lot.
I know, easier said than done - I think I continued temping for a week after my BFP!!
