Hi Becky....

BBT are hard to find. You can order one online at: http://www.am-i-pregnant.com/products/process.cgi/category.html?categoryid=29

(sorry it is so long..it's the first link I came accross)

But I, and most of the women on here, usually use a good ole digital thermometer. It seems to be good enough. I would've bought a BBThermometer but all my stores around here did not carry one. (Walmart-Target-Sams etc...)

Gl to you.

Hmmm... I bought my BBT thermometer at Walgreen's. They keep them in the section by the regular fever thermometers; they only had ONE brand/model of BBT though, so I had to look closely. (Needless to say, I had to ask a pharmacist where to find the BBT therms; I was off looking by the OPKs and such.) Maybe your Walgreen's has them; just ask the pharmacist. If that doesn't work, just search online and you should be able to find one.

You can start temping anytime, though right now would be perfect for you since you're hosting AF.

Good luck!

I got mine at Kmart, I can't remember what section of the store it was in, either with the rest of the thermometers, (I can't spell either! lol) or with the pg. tests. But I know it said BBT on the packaging.

Good luck locating one!

I got mine at Target near the OPK's and stuff. Although I have been using a regular digital thermometer. I just got the BBT for next cycle thinking it would be more acurate. Well for the last week and a half I have been using both. Most days they are the same the biggest difference was .2. I will try to post my findings soon. I've read/heard that any regular digital thermometer is fine and only use a BBT. I think I may stick with my regular thermometer because it takes my temp much faster than the BBT i bought.

Goodluck!
