When did you stop temping?

I've taken my temp all this week, more out of habit, but I think I wanted it to continue to confirm the baby (or something along those lines.) However, it's leveling out, and I'm assuming I don't need to do it anymore. Did you? How long did you keep temping after your BFP?

    Stop temping ASAP.  I kept on for a few days with steven, and my temp PLUMMETED and I lost my shiit.  Obviously, everything was fine, but I would stop if I were you.  :)

    Stop temping. Being pg will make your temps do wacky things and will only serve to freak you out unnecessarily.

    Only for a couple of days after I got my BFP.

    I temped through my first ten or twelve weeks. I was seeing an acupuncturist, and she said it is a good way to monitor your own progesterone. A friend who also sees her had a drop in temp during the first trimester, and the acupuncturist gave her some herbs to bring it back up. (Or she could have had a doc test her levels and start supplemental progesterone if necessary.) It was a comforting habit, but I guess it depends on the likelihood that you will panic with the inevitable fluctuations. I also continued acupuncture through the first trimester, as I was nervous about miscarriage (having had 2), for what it's worth.

    Thanks guys. Sorry I was mia, work got nuts.  I think I'll take a break, but I will definitely keep with the acupuncture.
