BBT During pregnancy, to temp or not to temp?

I'm a long term user of natural cycles and I'm 4 weeks pregnant.

In January I got a bfp and continued temping. Temps were all over the place, slowly went down and I bled about a week after AF was due. Early m/c or chemical.

This time I got a bfp at 7dpo and my temp has stayed high and steady. It's been a great comfort that it's different to last time. But.......

Now I'm feeling happier should I stop now, I don't want to panic if I see a dip but at the same time maybe temps remaining high will make me feel better if other things like cramping are bothering me?

Has anyone temped right the way through? Or anyone strongly against?

Stop temping is my advice. I carried on until 6 weeks with my first pregnancy and miscarried at 9. I then had a couple of chemicals and the drop in temperature was really depressing to see. With this successful so far pregnancy I stopped as soon as I got a BFP and didn't restart even when I had some bleeding. I don't think it tells you very much, there are too many variables and it's just another stress you don't need.

I stopped temping about 3 days past BFP (got BFP at 10dpo) because it was starting to go down and was stressing me out. Now 27 weeks so all is good!
