This is my first month doing BBT, but DH and I are in our 8th month of TTC. My chart looked really awesome until the last couple of days. I O'd on cycle day 12 and then had a temp spike and ever since 5 DPO my temps have been drastically falling! Today, I started spotting which is pretty normal a couple of days before AF starts (today marks 9 DPO). Has anyone had charts like this? Could it possibly be low progesterone or maybe a LPD? Any help would be super appreciated.
Re: Has anyone seen this before? Chart stalk please!
My guess would be that AF is on the way. However, CD1 is the first day of red flow, so you're not out yet. I sometimes have spotting for 3-4 days before AF, which I recently saw BBJ (I think) say can be an indication of low progesterone. I had 7DPo BW done yesterday, so I guess I'll find out.
I don't recall if I've ever seen a chart that literally looks like a hill like yours, but anything is possible.
Usually, LPD is looked at after 3 consecutive charts with an LP of 10 days or less. So keep charting. Don't look for problems, but keep an eye on it.

this.
Several of my charts (click ticker) when I began charting had the downhill spiral.
Agree with BP, get a couple of months of charting down and then see.
