Anyone have any insight? I was very steadily indexed, then a sudden drop to 5 pages and 10 pages today. Screen shot is attached. Any thoughts?

Usually I see the opposite. Rankings drop but the indexing is fine. Actually this is a good sign then. Maybe check if your sitemap's settings are normal. If you didn't do anything funny or tried to trick Google, don't worry about it.

Sitemap seems to be fine. Thanks for the info. It's strange and while I have some experience with Google Webmaster tools, this seemed pretty odd to me.

Did your traffic drop?

No the traffic is about the same.

How many pages/post do you have on your site?

I have about 10 pages and probably 40-some posts.

Well then it should show all 50+ indexed. Are you going in at least once a week and clicking on the update button on each one?

Yup! And i did a "Fetch as Google" to see if there were any errors on my site that might have caused this and it's showing as fine there too. Very odd.

That does sound strange. Sorry, I can not help you here.
Good luck
