Last month was my first month of charting, and during AF I took my temps orally then after AF i took them vaginally...but not sure if this is the right way to do it...??

During AF do I just not temp, or do I take them orally? How do you ladies do this during AF time??

TIA!

No, you do not take them vaginally. Do you have a Basal Thermometer? You take them orally, at the same time every day usually 1st thing in the morning. If you didn't yet go to www.fertilityfriend.com and you can sign up for free and chart your temps. there. Also they have a handbook that you can read all about how to chart and temp.

Thanks Melissa,

Yes I do have a BBT, and I've been charting at fertility friend since last month, the directions with my BBT said to take it vaginally, so now I'm confused...LOL.

Thanks melissa, I'll check out fertility friend's handbook!

Well I read the fertility friend handbook, and I am still confused, I prefer to take temps vaginally as it's very easy and not at all uncomfortable....however, I really don't like the idea of temping "there" during AF, but for consistency...temping they same way everyday, it would seem like i'd have too...ewww... =)

Thanks ladies!
