From my understanding and I am new to bbt as well but you start the first morning of your period. It has to be the same time every morning. I don't think you can tell when your pregnant from the temp. I have found it difficult to chart my temp everyday because I wake up at different times. No worries about the spelling mine is bad too. If your looking for a buddy to talk to I wouldn't mind one. Me and my OH have been trying for 3 months now. Good luck!

Here's a good article about BBT

https://www.justmommies.com/articles/bbt-charting.shtml



Also, fertilityfriend.com is the best website to chart. You can put down symptoms, CM, OPKs.. it's the best and I think most ladies on here will agree. And it's FREE!! Just make sure you take your temperature at the same time every morning-- VERY IMPORTANT.


Good luck hun xxx

You actually can tell you're pregnant by temping, at least according to the awesomely comprehensive book Taking Charge of Your Fertility.

Your temperature goes up the day after ovulation (1 day past ovulation, or 1DPO). If it stays up for the next 18 days you are most likely pregnant. It will drop back down for your period, so if you see it dropping you are likely not pregnant.

One dip in the middle of the time after ovulation (the two week wait) isn't a big deal, if it goes back up it's still considered up. In fact that dip might be an implantation dip, which 10% or so of women who aren't pregnant get and 20% of women who are. It happens right around when implantation might occur.

Thanks!!! I was going to ask the same question. Just ordered my thermometer and should arrive tom. AF came today. Is it ok to take temp around 1-2 pm? Its the easiest time for me to take it daily.

Can I start temping mid cycle or is it best for me to wait until CD1 of cycle 2?

I've just started temping & you can start at anytime in your cycle but you have to do it first thing in the morning though.
