Hey, Don't round your BBT numbers off, that is why they're so important in charting because you need it to be accurate to that degree because a slight shift of even 0.01 will be noted in your chart. When you do your temps you need to lie in bed and take it first thing when you wake up and make sure you don't move/stand up or move the thermometer in your mouth. This accuracy is why it's recommended not to use the standard thermometers by OBGYN's and most fertility specialists.

Using a BBT thermometer you get a more accurate reading.
It takes it to the 100th instead of the 10th
Example:
BBT : 97.45
Reg : 97.4
You can get them at Walmart or Walgreens for under $10.

I have a BBT thermometer but it only takes it to the .10. I was disappointed when i realized that, but decided to use it anyway.
