Basal Body Temperature BBT after 1st Trimester: SHould it drop or maintain?
I read 2 differing views on BBT after 1st Trimester..
1. Some say BBT should be elevated THROUGHTOUT pregnancy. 2. But from wiki or answers.com : " ... If pregnancy does occur, the corpus luteum continues to function (and maintain high BBTs) for the first trimester of the pregnancy. After the first trimester, the woman's body temperature drops to her pre-ovulatory normal as the placenta takes over functions previously performed by the corpus luteum...." http://www.answers.com/topic/basal-body-temperature-2 So which is the correct answer? Thank you! |

Thank you! So are you pregnant after taking your bbt? If so, then the answer is to stop taking your temps and not worry about it. The poin of temping is to catch the egg. You've done that. Now relax and stop taking your temperature. -- Jamie Earth Angels: Taylor Marlys -- 01/03/03 Addison Grace -- 09/30/04 Check out the family! -- www.MyFamily.com, User ID: Clarkguest1, Password: Guest Become a member for free - go to Add Member to set up your own User ID and Password |

Yes, i'm preg. just curious on whether taking bbt beyond 1st trimester is a way of monitoring the status of preg. Not to my knowledge, no. At least not reliably enough to make it worth the stress. Temps can vary for so many reasons, that it would make you nuts if you got a low temp one morning. Better to just stop taking your temps and wait it out, like most people do! Congrats again. -- Jamie Earth Angels: Taylor Marlys -- 01/03/03 Addison Grace -- 09/30/04 Check out the family! -- www.MyFamily.com, User ID: Clarkguest1, Password: Guest Become a member for free - go to Add Member to set up your own User ID and Password |

I read 2 differing views on BBT after 1st Trimester.. I'm not sure, but in my personal experience it has varied. I have had my BBTs drop during the 1st trimester in a normal full term pregnancy. I did not keep temping, so I don't know if they went back up. In a pregnancy miscarried at 11 1/2 weeks, my BBTs stayed high for a month after the miscarriage (until my next period). In my other pregnancies, I only temped long enough to confirm the prenancy. --Betsy |
