I have a question for all you experts out there, I am currently taking my temp which I am doing first thing, when I get up, but should I be doing it while still in bed?

sarah i started temping this month too - my temps are taken each morning at 6am when alarm goes off and i leave thermo by the bed ready. Its a bit hard when its so cold and all i want to do is get up and pee but i force myself to take temp first (orally!). Not sure what to make of my temps so far and so far FF says I havent Oed yet I am on day 17!!! of an average (over past 7 months) 28 day cycle. I am just hoping I oed and we hit it before DH went overseas!
Best of luck temping let me know how you go. I cant even bare to try and do the how high is my cervix today test they recommend! Temping is plenty!

Hey Sarah - yep you should take it while you are still in bed - before you do anything else. I would wake up and groggily put it in my mouth and sometime dose off and the beeping would wake me up!!

Bombshell - I never tried the 'how high is your cervix' either. It just seemed a bit confusing and I agree - temping was plenty enough for me!!

well I really don't think the in bed thing will work with this thermoeter then, the beeping of it would get me killed, it beeps while taking the temp sporadically and then beeps continually when it has decided on what my temp is.

mine beeps when temp is done...im usually about to dose back off about then...LOL

Sarah - some hope for you...my chart today shows I Oed on day 14!!!! yipppppeeeee I cant tell you how pleased i was to see it bring up red lines and an "ovulation detected" message!!! I was wondering if I was really Oing and now FF has convinced me I am...and DH and I managed to BD big time right before he went away on morning of day 15.....Ive been on a high all day - silly I know but I am just soooooooo happy it did this.

The husband will get used to it! All BBT thermometers do that so that you know when the temperature is ready to read.

Apart from the first morning temping when the husband rolled over and said "what the hell are you doing?" He just slept through it!

Your temp starts to go up as soon as you get out of bed - so unless you're temping as soon as you wake up, it won't be accurate and won't be worth doing.

if you use fertility friend you can keep track of your temps and they will show you when or if you ovulate, length of your cycle and then if like Sarah beth and I also when you are pregnant....
It was helpful to know i was truly ovulating....and often isnt when you think you are....
if you go the the website - its a dot com....have a read up there....Sarah beth and I both started charting this past month....

Sounds like you're very excited - good on you. How long did you TTC for (if you don't mind me asking) - just seems like you really really wanted this to happen.

we started ttc in Jan this year, but I had gotten used to getting negatives every month. I guess once the positive finally showed up it was more than a little surprising.

< language=> and then there is me at the other end of the scale weve been TTC for 2 years & Ive been on FF for one but then I dont have a "nornal" cycle & have PCOS so that does add a bit of a challenge to the mix LOL.

I highly reccommend temping thats the only thing thats been keeping me sane!!! i would be POAS more than I do now LOL. and i could prove to my fertility specialist that i was infact ovulating just late.... which has been great in helping the dx meds along...
