Are you using proper forwards from your old HTTP to your new HTTPS URLs? Wired also took a seo hit and this was probably their problem.

If you use permanent forwarding (HTTP 301) then you should be fine.

yes we have permanent 301 forwards set up since day 0. but still it happened in the short run.
