How do I monitor my BBT?

Question

I’m very very new, this is my first month trying BBT. I’ve been having a hard time pinpointing my ovulation with just OPKs. I have a bbt thermometer arriving this week, I’m still on my period (CD3) 
What are the basics I should know? Im absolutely clueless and coming into this with a blank slate so dumb it down for me lmao

Answer

Were you testing 2-3 times a day with opks?

Answer

Download the fertility friend app to track your temps. They have guides to get started.

Answer

With BBT, it confirms ovulation once it has happened. 
So OPK's tell you when your body is trying to ovulate and BBT confirms ovulation. 
The basic behind is: 
1. Try to take BBT at same time everyday. 
2. Make sure you had a sleep of minimum 3-4 hours. 
3. Take the temperature as soon as you open eyes... Before getting out of bed.. 
To confirm ovulation, you should have 3 temperature higher than the previous 6 temperature. 
You can start BBT now as your current cycle has started.
