PREGNANT AND BBT DIP

Hi ladies.. would you mind awfully coming to my rescue again?!  I am up to high dough here.. My bbt have been around 37.1c since my chart went triphasic several days ago.  I am 4 wks 3 dys pregnant and today my bbt has dropped to 36.9..  Should bbt drop like that if all ok with pregnancy?  It is still higher than my cover line by 0.2c but should it stay up at triphasic level during pregnancy?

I also did another preg test - I got 15 paper ones so I have been using them to monitor hcg levels every day or other day.. and today it was darker + line than yesterday and twice as dark as day before!  So looks like my hcg levels are on the up.. but I cannot help but worry about the dip in temp... Anyone else get a dip and still have nomal pregnancy? Any replies much appreciated, x

hi. I'm 5 weeks preg...I took the home pregnancy test 3 days ago and it was positive:) but now I'm freaking out bc/ my BBT has been dropping since that day and yesterday it has dropped below the coverline. It went up by .1 degrees f. I have bled or experience any other miscarriage symtoms. Am I doomed for miscarriage?

Many thanks for reassurance... I am pleased to say that my bbt has shot up high again today- 37.3 (highest yet).  I had the window open the night before and usually have it closed so that was probably the reason why lower bbt.  But yes you are right temping when preg prob not best as gave me a day of real worry y'day... just I know it can be warning of m/c if keeps dipping so thought maybe could do something to prevent if I see signs... But you know what I guess I should just put my faith in the Lord and put away the thermometer... At the end of the day if our baby is meant to meet us in 8 mths he/she will.. x
