Implantation dip or am I out?

Is this dip enough to be called "the dip" or is my temp just on a wild roller coaster ride? I had some mild cramping very low in the abdomen while at work last night

but I never want to put it down in chart area just in case it was gas!

It's hard to say what the dip is. I had a big one last month and thought for sure I was pregnant, but AF showed up. I hope for you it's an implantation dip.

Humm I am in a similar situation. I guess we'll know in a few days if our temps keep rising. Good Luck. I hope for both our sakes its not a wacky chart.

Jackie,

I am no expert, this is my first month charting...

BUT - I can tell you that I got a dip like that yesterday and it went back up today!

It could be an estrogen surge, or plantation! I bet it will go back up tomorrow.

(That is what everyone told me yesterday, and they were right!!)

Good luck to you!

Here is my chart - it looks alot like yours.. :)

So after I posted this morning I went back to bed... for about 3 and a half hours. I decided to take my temp again and it was 98.1... thats a big jump and I cant figure out what the heck is going on. I think I will be going to the dollar store today to do a little bit of cheap stock piling on HPT's. I need to put my mind at ease here until AF due in 5 days!

Maybe you were cold last night and your temp was down a bit. I live in S. Florida, and it even cooled down here last night to 60 degrees!!! Our house was a freaking ice box this morning when I woke up!

GLTY!

Stephanie, 60 degrees? Let me tell you, I was waiting for the school bus with son this morning and it was around 30 with 25 mph winds! thats freakin' cold!LOL I think thats why I went back to bed! BTW, I live in NH.

When is AF due for you? Any symptoms? My bb's are hurting and I keep getting these little cramps way down low... God I hope its not AF!! I hope that my CP being so low is not the precursor to the old hag!

Hi Jackie!

I miss the cold so bad!!! Our in-laws are in PA and I tell my hubby all the time that we need to relocate!! :)

If we get lucky, we may see 40 at night in the dead of winter here!

Here is my chart...

I am a little concerned how my temps are going up and down!! What do you think??!!

The actual temperatures are less important than noting a biphasic pattern (a pattern that shows lower and higher range temperatures). If there is no pregnancy, then your temperature will stay elevated for 10-16 days, until the corpus luteum regresses, at which time progesterone levels drop dramatically and you get your period. Your temperature normally drops at this time as well, though it is not unusual to have erratic or high temperatures during your period.

I took this right from the FF handbook...I know if you are anything like me, then this wont put your mind at ease! Your temps though are still above coverline... I wish that I could help you more but I am too new at charting! Lets keep in touch.... when are you going to test?

I have a DR's appt next Thursday at 12 DPO, so I am going to try and hold out until then.

BUT I have a brand new box of FRE with 3 test sticks, so who am I kidding??!!! LOL

I will prob test this weekend and early next week, then hang on to the last stick until the morning of my Dr appt..

I am not sure how long my LP is going to be because my cycles have been so irregular lately. I had to take Provera to induce AF this cycle, and Dr also had me take Clomid.

This is all new and a total mystery to me!

When are you going to test?

Keep in touch!

JACKIE~~ OMG i have the same question... my chart is doing the same thing, I dipped to cover line too! and have had that twinge since yesterday.

here's my chart

http://circles2.fertilityfriend.com/home/2ec9b

I don't know if it's the dip or not, it's good timing i think for both of us...but I really don't know what to think at this point. I'm wondering if it's not just because of the cold weather it's been really cold here and wondering if that caused my dip....guess we will find out soon!
