How do you tell when you’re ovulating using BBT?

Question

How do you read a BBT chart and what are you supposed to be looking for to know when you’re ovulating? I started tracking BBT 2 days ago so still trying to figure out what I’m looking for. I’m also on my day 3 of my period if that matters, am I supposed to be taking my temp on my period as well or do I start after my period ends?

Answer

Start from day one of your period. If you are currently on your period, you’re not ovulating yet. Keep temping. 
I recommend the fertility friend app - there’s guides to read for beginners

Answer

Hi! You take your temp from CD1 which is the day your period starts.  Every day first thing as you wake up. This is because you need to know your base line temp as it varies from women to women.  You confirm ovulation after you had 3 higher temperatures,  above the base line. Also some women have a dip in the temperature on the day of the ovulation.  I posted my chart from when I bbt , I got pregnant that month.
