Basal Body Temps when Conception in Successful??

jenweber03

I've of course been charting my bbts for months now and was just wondering if any of you still saw or know if I will still see a slight dip in the luteal phase when a successful implantation occurs?  At around 7 days after I ovulated I saw a decline  a little below 98.0 for a couple days then today it went back up past 98.0.  Does this mean I am mostly likely not preg or am I overanalyzing? I was comparing last month's chart and it did the same thing with the dip in temperatur, so I took that to be discouraging news.  Anyway, I am interested in feedback regarding how your chart differered the month you conceived from the others.  I seriously think if I am not preggo this month I going to go insane.  SERIOUSLY -  THE WAITING GAME IS KILLING ME!!!!  Ugh, testing tomorrow as it will be 10 past ovulation - using the 6 day early test...   thanks for your input

I am seven weeks pregnant and I had no implantation dip. My temp just steadily went up.

 I didn't chart for that many cycles, but this last cycle I did have a bit of a dip in temp after O, however; it did not dip below the coverline. Then it went back up and stayed up for 10 days which is when I tested and got my BFP

The two cycles before my BFP I had huge dips that I thought could be implantation.  Nope, not at all.  The third cycle, I had a very teeny tiny dip and this was the cycle I got my BFP.  Not all people get implantation dips either.

My husband and I have been using Natural Family Planning, which involves charting of daily temps along with other bodily signs to determine ovulation, etc. The day after we conceived, my temp rose to the 98s and has stayed there for the whole time. The lowest time I've had since conceiving was 97.95 but what a "rise" for you will look depends on your normal temps. I have low thyroid function, so my temps are generally low. Anything in the 98s is high for me.

The general rule of thumb in NFP is that if your temps have spiked and stayed up for 14 days post-ovulation, then you are probably pregnant! If you want to learn more about reading your charts, The Art of Natural Family Planning is quite good. Good luck!

I am probably not much help with your actual question, but my doctor actually told me to lay off the charting for a bit because it was stressing me out. She said the stress was probably not worth it. I started using just the ovulation predictor kits and a little app for my phone instead (PinkPad...fabulous!). It was much less stressful for me, and a few months later, we were pregnant. Hang in there! And, good luck!

Do you have your BFP chart? If so could I see? I had a slight dip today...and hoping its a good sign and it raises back up the next few days.

From my experience, implantation dips and spotting are very rare and really you can only call it once you have a positive pregnancy test.

BBT's vary so much that it's hard to be sure of any pattern until its in retrospect

Feel free to chart stalk below.  I had a very obvious implantation dip at 9DPO.

Some women get an "implantation dip" every month, regardless of pregnancy.  It's not necessarily a sign.  I don't remember if I got one or not, but you can check out my chart in my siggy.  Just to warn you, it's a wacky one.

You can drive yourself nuts trying to figure out what your temp means (I know I did) I didn't have an implantation dip and from what I have read they are pretty rare but also a dip does not necessarily mean anything either. You have to look at your pattern. Have you had them in the past? Mine was totally different from my non conception charts b/c literally for 14 days in a row my temperature only fluctuated 1/100th of a degree. It was weird to draw a perfectly straight line, I kept making DH take his temp with my thermometer to make sure it wasn't stuck, haha. Good luck with your wait and your test tomorrow. Remember if you don't get your BFP tomorrow do it again in a few days. I know waiting is complete torture.  Hoping for BFP for you, fingers crossed!

I had a dip at 8 DPO and it stayed low on 9 DPO, then went up on 10 DPO (the day I got my BFP).  Try not to overanalyze though. I had a few months there where my chart looked really pretty but still got BFNs.  Good luck!

Yes,I'm trying to figure out how to get a link on here for it.

I had a dip. It went BELOW my coverline but it turned out to be implantation. I didnt get my BFP until 12DPO though. Keep your head up!
