Hi ladies! I am new to the whole TTC journey and even newer to the fertility charting game. This is my first month trackng BBTs, plus I used an OPK. I am 11DPO (or 10, depending on the website I check) and my temps are still high. I think I saw a very faint second line on the HPT this morning, so now I'm looking for other "signs" since I probably won't test again until Thursday (if I can just control this urge to POAS) 
Anyway, here's my question: how many days before AF rears her ugly head do your temps start to fall? My cycles have been irregular because I am still breastfeeding, so I'm not even sure when she's due. Any thoughts/comments?

Hi Jennifer,
My temp usually falls the day before or the day of AF, but I think it can depend a number of other factors, too. I've been fighting a bug, which has kept my temp a little high when it should have dropped. Plus the building I live in just cranked up the central heat, so I've been really overheating at night and not seeing drops in temp on my BBT chart!

Thanks for the info, ladies! This was my first month charting, so I wasn't really sure what to look for. As it turns out, I didn't see that pre-AF drop in my BBTs because I'm PG!
Best wishes for baby blessings to all!
