Amber - i found this on another forum ...
"Fallback rise is a BBT chart pattern in which your temperature rises after ovulation but then falls back down immediately. This usually happens at 2-3 dpo. It then goes back up shortly after.
Before O, estrogen levels peak and then drop, causing LH level to peak and then drop, causing ovulation. One theory of fallback rise is that the estrogen level is still dropping after the LH level has dropped, and the progesterone levels have not risen high enough to push the temperature up. Estrogen causes low temps, progesterone high temps. By the next day, the estrogen level is down and the progesterone level pushes the temperature back up. The result is a chart that looks like mine this time.
This pattern doesn't happen all the time but happens often. I think it depends one what time you O compared to when you take your temps, and how high the estrogen level really goes.
Unfortunately, until you have more high temps after the drop at 2dpo, it's very difficult to figure out whether or not you have ovulated...like me!"
Jolene - yay! welcome to the 2ww.
Kat - don't freak out hun, there is a reason they tell you not to test bbt during the day. it is unreliable. fx'd that it will be back up in the morning.
Kelly - good to see you!
ok, so, not sure what is going on with me. i checked my cervix when i woke up and it was super high, medium, and closed and my cm was watery. i started to get excited as those to do not seem like signs that would happen if you are about to get af. now, as i was typing this stuff, i am starting to get cramps (well i guess, they are more these weird twingey pains)
i am scared to go check
