I think someone may have asked about this recently, but I could not find the post.

My post-O temps are barely over the coverline and they aren't over 98.0? Is that hot enough? Is that a sing that I am not pregnant? Or that I cannot maintain a pregnancy at those temps?

Thanks!

I think I'm going to break down and test tomorrow (particluarly because I think FF has it wrong and I'm actually 12 dpo (not 9 like FF says)).

GL testing tomorrow...I really think you o'd earlier too ;) ;) Your temps are just fine as long as they're above cl still. You'll find that you don't always fit in the "normal" range, but that doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with your cycle either. I've always had cl's at 97.8 and this month my cl temp is 97.3 and I've not gotten more than 97.7 above cl, where with my 97.8 cl I'd be into the mid to high 98's...so it can vary- and even from cycle to cycle. Don't take too much into temperatures, go with your instincts and knowing and feeling that your cycle is "normal" to you. Hang in there and I hope to see you posting bfp tomorrow!!!

Laura Jane,

Goodluck testing tomorrow! My temps are low too. This morning I actually hit an all time low of 96.4! I was wondering if I was still alive LOL. They typically average 97.0 pre-O and 97.9 post-O. I temp at 5am and I believe the earlier you temp the lower your temps are but I could be wrong on this. This is all based on 1.5 months temping. I kinda freaked out when I started temping because it seemed my temps were so low. I have since verified that there are many others out there with low temps. I don't think it means anything. Now I realize why I'm always so cold LOL.
