BBT Thermometer. . . save or splurge?

[AlaskaWife]

Hello.
I am just curious what type of BBT thermometer you are using. I tried a nexcare basal thermometer which turned out to be a pink regular thermometer that just took forever, and beeped a lot. (I also don't think it was giving accurate results as it said I was 93.7 EVERY morning.) Do you have one that actually reads to the 1/100th degree, and preferable doesn't wake the whole block up with it's beeping? I have looked at the iBasal, but is it worth all the money?

dont think you really need a BBT that reads 1/100th of a degree. I spent $10 (USD) on my BBT and it worked great! Got it from a local drug store (CVS/Walgreens).. it beeps after it's done taking the temperature (takes up to ~1 min).

did you take it at the same time each morning BEFORE you move(got up/drink water/walk/etc.)?

Yes I took my temp at 7 on the dot every morning while still lying down in bed. I think it's just busted. I tried to take my husbands temp with it and he got the same.

Yeah... In that case.... Change a thermometer~
