BBT spike then drop, then slow rise - help!

Hi,

I'd love some advice on what my temps are doing. I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks about 5 weeks ago and am desperate to conceive again. I have had one period since then and am now on day 20 of my cycle. I've been charting my temps at the same time of day every day. All was looking good, with a definite spike on Day 15, but then it dropped straighat back down and has only risen slowly since then - barely above the coverline. Was the spike a freak incident? Have I ovulated? Do you think I could my progesterone levels could be low? I normally have a very regular 28 or 29 day cycle.

Temps...

Days 1 - 11: between 36.2 and 36.4
Day 12: 36.1
Day 13: 36.2
Day 14: 36.1
Day 15: 36.7
Day 16: 36.1
Day 17: 36.2
Day 18: 36.5
Day 19: 36.4
Day 20: 36.5

Any help or advice would be amazing.

Thanks x

Thanks for your advice. I hope you're right!

I've started a tracker chart, so if anybody is able to take a look at my temps I'd really appreciate it. They just don't seem to be signifcantly higher since the spike...

Hi - It's hard for me to tell b/c I'm not familiar with cel (v.s farenheit) -- but it seems like your 'spike' at day 15 may not have been a real O spike. Again, I'm not sure b/c maybe in cel. that's a big jump. On the other hand, you have general lows before and general highs after and many women expereince a drop immediately after O (before the rise), so you follow that pattern perfectly. Ya, now looking at it, it seems you O'ed on CD15, had the drop, then got back up above your cover line. Looks good....
