Your chart looks slightly triphasic and it does spike after 6/7 DPO, which would be the right timing  for implantation.  But keep in mind that triphasic pregnancy charts are not that common and plenty of women get a triphasic looking chart and are not pg and vice versa.  Your temp hasn't really dropped per se- it's still well above the coverline, just not within that third level of temps.  Often when a women is about to start her period or begin spotting in anticipation of a period the temp dips close to or below the coverline, though certainly not always!   Is this your first chart?  Do you know how long your typical luteal phase is?  I see you're at 14 DPO right now.  I lot of women feel like they are about to get their period and also spot around the time of their expected period when they are in fact pregnant.  Have you tested again yet?  14 DPO is usually plenty of time for most women to get an accurate result on an HPT whereas 12 DPO can sometimes be a bit early with a less sensitive test.  If you are pregnant and the pregnancy is viable, your hCG levels should have doubled over the last two days, making it much more likely to get a BFP at this point.  Go for a First Response Early Response or a generic drug store or dollar store test that only requires an hCG level of 25.  Or you can wait a few more days and see if your temp really drops and if you start to full on bleed. 

 

Keep us updated and good luck!

Wow, the second picture is really interesting to me, since the pattern was increasing darkness, then a decrease, then a blaring positive. I didn't know they went back up like that. Hmm. Maybe i need to continue my OPKs for longer...
