Basal body temp?

Question

Can you ladies tell me about your experiences with charting your bbt while trying to conceive? I’m considering on buying one and sticking to it since we’re having trouble conceiving our second I’m trying to do anything I can to see when I’m ovulating. I’d really like to hear your journey with this!

Answer

I love BBT! Used it to conceive our first and as part of our NFP strategy to avoid pregnancy until we were ready for #2. It's the only way to confirm when/if you're actually ovulating and there's no guessing about LH strips.

Answer

Got pregnant in two months doing this!! Never tookan ovulation test strip

Answer

I find it helpful but it takes a little practice. Strongly recommend the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility if you’re considering starting BBT temping. Another good resource is the Fertility Friend podcast, which goes through the basics. I also recommend using OPKs and monitoring your cervical fluid to help guide your timing as well.  Keep in mind that the raised temps following ovulation confirm ovulation, but can’t tell you when you’re about to ovulate.  Because it is best to time sex at or before ovulation, you should use other signs to determine when to have sex.
