That is I think what would make me worry. I am going back to look for you at my charts:<br /> -two months before my positive test I was 0.5 above the coverline on 12dpo, dropping to 0.2 above on 13 and below coverline on day 14/day 1 of AF<br /> -the month before, temp was 0.5 above coverline on day 11, 1.5 above coverline on 12 and 13, then dropped all the way past coverline on day 14. I would copy my charts in but I can't seem to remember my login for the computer. :bummed:<br /> Thanks for the good wishes too--11 weeks along already! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999986 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 16:34:39 +0000 Crystal 1999986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatyLady: @shellio: thanks!</p> <p>@MamaCate: (I'm still so excited for you!) yours is a little before too... Mmmm...</p> <p>Mine usually drops about 10DPO, with AF starting at around 14DPO. At one point my doc suggested low P, but hasn't wanted to discuss it since. I'm trying to determine what's normal so I know if I need to push it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999980 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 16:31:26 +0000 sapphire 1999980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine usually dropped the day before, but sometimes the day AF started. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999977 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 16:29:02 +0000 MamaCate 1999977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine usually dropped by 12 or 13 dpo prior to AF arriving on 14dpo. It usually wasn't back to the coverline until day 13 or 14 but headed that way. It was sort of a warning about what was coming, so sometimes I was already ready to move on by the time AF actually showed. With this pregnancy, it dropped a little on 13 dpo (so I had a beer that night) but then bounced back the next day, which is when I tested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999965 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 16:19:51 +0000 shellio 1999965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just looking back through my charts - day it starts, or occasionally the day before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999962 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 16:18:37 +0000 CatyLady 1999962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine drops the day it starts, so I know that day it's coming </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-before-af-starts-does-your-temp-drop#post-1999902 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 15:05:18 +0000 Crystal 1999902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How long before AF arrives does your temp drop? </p>
