BBT after BFP?

Is there any reason to keep temping after you get a BFP?

I always stop after my BFP, but I get late +'s (18-19 DPO).  If I tested + early like around 9-11 DPO I would probably continue to temp for a few days.

Yes there is a reason, to drive you Bat Sh!t Crazy.

 

Seriously, I'm a a charting ADDICT, like SERIOUSLY  - it's worse than heroine, and I put my thermometer down after a few days. Step away from the thermometer

I don't think so. I did it for a couple days after my BFP but found myself trying to over analyze.

Not good for my PGAL brain.

I was so glad to stop temping after BFP. I think it will drive you crazy more than do any good.

::lurking:: I temped after both Bfp and even though both of those were early losses, temping actually prepared me better for the loss as opposed to just bleeding.  For future Bfps I probably won't temp, but my ob will also probably do betas so I can know that way.

Not really.  Sometimes the temps go up and down a little, which can cause you to stress out.  :)  It's probably best to stop temping and stop testing, but I know how hard it is to stop!
