taking temp after bfp
I am debating if I should still temp? I worry that I will drive myself crazy if I see a dip in my temperature...but at the same time I want to make sure everything is still okay.
Advice? Suggestions?

I wouldnt- only because you might make yourself worry for nothing! You want to be as stress free as possible- I know, easier said than done!

I was thinking the same thing when I found out. I didnt do it because I didnt want to freak myself out.

I am going to put the thermometer away. I decided that even if my temps drop there is nothing I can do about it right. My goal is to try not to stress too much this time around.

Re: taking temp after bfp
Put the thermometer away! I had a dip the few days following my BFP and thought for sure it wasn't going to be viable. The worrying sucked.....
I'm 18.5 weeks now......

You are so right! I didn't listen and temped today, it went from 98.7 yesterday to 98.5 today. Still way above my coverline, but this little dip has freaked me out! I need DH to hide the thermometer. I took another hpt and got a darker bfp than yesterday on the frer test. Okay...must get rid of the thermometer....
I hate worrying....

Re: taking temp after bfp
I would not. I know that my temps did weird things after I got the BFP. The hormones surge at weird times & it is pretty random.

Re: taking temp after bfp
My neurosis after BFP was that the test was lying to me. I POAS about 7 times before I finally beleived it. DH spent many trips to the store and about $100 on digi tests
Congrats!
