Faint positive 10dpo then big dip in bbt?

Hello, I was excited to get a faint positive (pic attached) on 10dpo. But then today (11dpo) my bbt dropped dramatically, which usually happens before a period. Test this morning no darker. Does this mean I should expect a chemical?
I know ultimately need to wait and see but had a chemical back in July (waited to test til 2 days late for period, got weak positive then started bleeding) then a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks in September so I’m going a little mad!!!!

Any changes in your temping? Same time, didn't get up or have a drink anything like that?

Thanks for replying. I did have a disrupted night. Was up 3am - 4:30 with my older child. But this type of night happens a few times a month (joys of parenting!) and don’t usually notice an impact on my temp.

If anything mine is usually higher than normal if I don't fully get back to sleep after that.

Its hard to say from one temp reading.. realistically it could mean a chemical and that AF will arrive soon but I think just as equally it could be a random dip in hormones or an odd one off reading.

Totally appreciate how anxious it must be waiting, I had a MC in June and it was worse than I had appreciated when I knew friends who'd been through it. I come on here wanting to hear a realistic answer tho so I hope I'm not being unnecessarily brutal!

I will keep my fingers crossed for you xx

Yes you’re right and thank you. All the times I’ve been pregnant previously (2 successful, 3 losses) it has been very obvious from my sustained high temperatures. So I’m more or less expecting chemical. Serves me right for testing so early! I had vowed to wait til period late but just had no self control.

I am totally the same, even tho I tell myself each cycle I will just wait I always cave..! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you xx
