I just posted this in the 1WW, but then thought maybe it would get noticed more up here!

So anyway, if your temps are going to take the pre-AF plunge, when do they normally start to slide? I'm 8 dpo and they're still up there. Just wondering if this means anything. I'm hopeful, because I've also been nauseated for two days and have some cramping today. AF is 5 - 7 days away.

Please let me know what you think!

Thanks so much!

Usually they drop right when AF is here-- either the day of or the day before, but not usually much sooner than that. YOu should go to FF and check out their chart gallery-- have you done that yet? THen you can look at a bunch of regular (non-PG) charts and see what their temps do.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!

Hi Kristin,

My temps drop a little before spotting starts, but stay above coverline, but still a noticable drop. Then they drop a little more the day of spotting, then drop to coverline or lower the day AF comes full force. Usually only a couple tenths at a time. Like last month my last high temp was 98.3, then dropped to 97.7, spotting day temp was 97.5, then AF temp was 97.4. But that is just me. My temps don't drop until 14-16dpo, I hope yours don't drop at all!! Good luck!!

Hi Kristin,

Everyone is different, but last cycle, my temp didn't drop below CL until CD 11, which of course drove me crazy thinking maybe I could be PG even with AF. Of course, I am not. So I don't think I'll rely on temps too much in my case. My body's probably just wacky, though! I hope you don't have to wonder about it, and your temps don't ever drop this cycle! Good luck!

Hey Kristin,

My temps usually drop the 1st day of red flow of AF. I usually spot 2 days prior to AF, but everybody is probably different. I'm only on my 4th chart, so I'm no expert yet by any means. But, HTH and GL to you!!!
