Tracking BBT?
| Thu, 08-14-2003 - 2:58pm |
OK, AF began today right on schedule. Since I am starting with a clean slate and its my fourth month TTC, I thought I'd try tracking my BBT.
Is it ok to do it in the bathroom after getting up? My only activity would be picking out clothes for the day and wandering into the next room. Is that too much activity? I know, dumb question. But I have never done this before. I think it's time I get serious about this.
Thanks!

My doctor said that the BBT needs to taken before any activity takes place. Before you go to the bathroom or open the blinds, etc. I generally keep the thermometer by my bed and when DH wakes me up every morning he hands me the thermometer and I take my temperature. It really helps to have DH involved, he is such an angel.
I wish you much luck.
For some good resources:
1) The website at www.fertilityfriend.com - they've got a free online charting tool, as well as an excellent "handbook"
2) The book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler - everything you ever wanted to know about charting is in this book!
Good luck to you!
