BBT cover line

Hi ladies,

I am 6 dpo today and I noticed a slight dip (very slight) in my BBT this morning.  According to my chart on fertilityfriend.com, my cover line is 36.6 degrees celsius.  My temp this morning was 36.80, yesterday it was 36.85.  I'm new to charting, so not sure what to think.  Does this slight drop in temp mean my progesterone levels are dropping or do I only worry about it if my temp goes below the coverline?  Thanks.

I don't think your progesterone levels are dropping at 6 dpo; it's probably a random fluctuation.  As long as your BBT stays above the coverline you are OK.

Good luck!

Thanks!  AF actually showed this a.m., so I am out this month!  But I am okay because I finally feel like I am on the right track!  I am taking Fertility Blend, seeing an acupuncturist and will start with a new ob who specializes in Napro!  I think that this is my "year"! :)

Thanks for the input!  I'm new to this whole charting thing, but glad i finally decided to chart.  At least i know i'm ovulating...before i wasn't too sure.  Did you test yet?  I saw a post you did yesterday saying you were trying to wait until monday.  Good luck, i hope this is your month too!

I think that you only need to worry if it goes below the coverline!  I also don't think that the hundredths place means as much - meaning 36.8 is 36.8!

Good luck - I hope this is your month!! :)
