TTC After a Loss

BBT Recommendations

Since MrsErinH brought up the subject--can I get some feedback on which thermometer brand works best for you ladies.  Currently I have the CVS one, but I think it is wonky...temps all over the place, and it always "recalls" the last temp read as 97.70.  I'm going to use it for the duration of this cycle since we are TTA anyways, but want to buy one to start over with for next cycle...

TIA!

** BFP #2 - expecting a little leprechaun!! EDD 3/21/13 | HB 7/30/2012 (6w3d) **
NT Scan 9/4 - looked great! | Grow, baby, grow!!! | A/S 10/29

Re: BBT Recommendations

  • I just bought mine from the local drugstore and it's worked for me so far.

    I also wanted to see how you were doing holding out during your fertile window? I'm grumpy that I know I'm Oing and that we had to use a condom.

  • I have a Mabis and I have no complaints. I have had it for like 5 months but only used it for 3 of those, but not consecutively (due to the m/c).

    Hey Jenn!!

    Thanks for checking on me...I am super grumpy.  LOL! I got all sexied up last night and we did BD, but it's super frustrating to have to use protection when we are married.  And want children.  And are fertile.  Ugh.  I'm trying to look at the big picture here though :)  And I'm using your words of wisdom as my mantra--I want my next pregnancy to be with a healthy body so that I can do everything I can to nourish that LO.

    ((hugs)) to my fellow benchwarmer!!

    Edit: becuase I can't smell today

    Lmao: further edit because I really can't spell today.  At all.

    I have the 3M digital one and honestly, it beeps a LOT.  If a less beep-y one is an option, I'd go with that.

    Well I'm glad I can be here for you to support you. We can cheer each other on! And I agree about how much it sucks using protection when you're married and want a baby. It's like a slap in the face.

    And I love how you can't "smell" today. LOL!

    Since MrsErinH brought up the subject--can I get some feedback on which thermometer brand works best for you ladies.  Currently I have the CVS one, but I think it is wonky...temps all over the place, and it always "recalls" the last temp read as 97.70.  I'm going to use it for the duration of this cycle since we are TTA anyways, but want to buy one to start over with for next cycle...

    TIA!

    Ditto to this. I was starting to think there was something wrong with me. Glad to know it just sucks. Going to the store to get a new one tonight.
