Anyone still temping (BBT) through 1st trimester?

Because I'm worried sick about a miscarriage, I continue to take my BBT every morning at the same time just so I can see my temps staying up.  I'm on progesterone because it's super low so the temping has been helping ease my mind a little seeing my temps high.  Anyone else doing this?  I hate that I'm so freaked out and can't enjoy things but I can't help but be this way...

  • Ya know, I was tempted to keep temping, but knew I'd obsess over it and it'd cause me anxiety if I had a low temp. The best thing I did was put my thermometer away.

  • I've been tempting for the same reason.  I can't handle not know what is going on in my body.  My first doctor's appointment is tomorrow.  Praying that I get the all clear and that he sees something. I'm pretty sure I'm just starting 5weeks so probably wont see anything.

    I'm still temping BUT it is in part because I can't figure out how to turn the alarm off on my thermometer and it's the fastest way to shut it up

  • I was told by my friend (who's a midwife) to not temp once pregnancy is concerned. Apparently temps can vary in early pregnancy, and she says it causes many women to worry unnecessarily...she knows me well, LOL.

    I was warned to stop too. Stupid thermometer.... I have even searched online for the instructions I threw away and apparantly it is the ONLY company that doesn't put a copy of their instructions on their website

    Yay! My RE threatened to come to my house and take mine away by our 3rd IUI. LOL!

    My temps just don't follow textbook. I still was temping but am now too tired to wake up at 6am So I'm done for now.

    So happy for you Nik!!! I don't know about you but I'm exhausted most days & I just don't want to obsess over a low temp right now, let alone wake up early.
