Bfp using CBFM and BBT

I looked everywhere for a post like this so I’m posting my experience.

I used the clearblue fertility monitor to track ovulation. I also bought a bbt thermometer the month I conceived. I tracked both for one month and my hubby and I DTD on my first peak and second peak (we used preseed on 2nd day only).

Tracking my bbt was a life saver. It confirmed ovulation on first peak day. My temps stayed high except for a dip in cd5-6 which i wasn’t concerned about. On CD14 when my temp shot up even more, i knew i was pregnant.

I think y’all will save yourself a lot of anxiety over testing and ovulation if you temp. If you’ve ovulated and your temp stays high for 14-18 dpo take a test at that point. If your temp drops during those days, AF is on the way.

**I highly recommend researching how to track your bbt. Because even though your opk says “peak” that doesn’t mean you will ovulate! Temping for a full cycle will confirm it.

Hope this helps!

It kept me sane! No guessing about whether or not I ovulated or if AF was coming. Game changer

I was thinking I should check temp and your post just confirmed I should. Thanks! I’m still confused about it all but I’ll do the research. Thank you!!! And congratulations!!

The FAM fertility awareness method board is a great resource for BBT and cervical mucus tracking.
