Basil body temperature?

Question

How am I supposed to start tracking my bbt? I know it's supposed to be the same time everyday, but does it need to be when I first wake-up? Could I set an alarm for like 10:00 and take it at that time everyday?? Also us there a specific thermometer that I need to use?

Answer

I posted a picture of my chart yesterday bc it looked out of wack, and the responses I got were so helpful. This is what I got from it:

1. Try everyday at the same time.
2. Which ever way you do it (mouth, vaginally or rectally) that's how u must continue the rest of the month.
3. If ur a mouth breather, ur chart might be off, so do it vaginally.
4. Testing should be done with at least 4 hrs of uninterrupted sleep. So if u have an alarm set for 6:30, but u wake up at 5 bc u have to pee and you've had at least 4 hrs of good sleep, ch check it then.
5. Chart everyday for a clear pattern.
6. For most people, you will notice a spike in temp if you ovulated.
7. This method helps recognize when ovulation occurred, not when it's about to happen. So, if you are looking for something that is going to show it's about to happen, I would do opks and check ur cervical mucus daily.
 
Once you get a clear pattern, then u start to notice it month to month.

Hope this helped, and good luck. Baby dust!

Had to be when you first wake up before you even get out of bed! Xx
