Nasim Malik the doctor said on the video sleep 3 hours unbroken sleep for 3 hour and then take your body temperature, So I think it should matter what time of day you have to work just long as you’re sleeping three hours unbroken sleep when you wake up no talking no drinking no moving out the bed she said to have Your thermometer next to your bedside on the floor or table before you take your body temperature that’s what she said on the video, she said on the video to use a app or you can write it down as well I Hopefully she’ll text you as well, i’m tracking my BBT too. Good Luck!!!
Ha Nasim and Eureka- that's correct- you just need a three hours unbroken 'chunk' of sleep- doesn't matter if it is earlier or later in the evening. So shift workers can BBT too :)
Thanks for your comment- Electric blankets can be a bit disruptive yes- I don't recommend them. Extra clothes shouldn't disrupt your temp too much, as long as you are not overheating!
My period was due on tue 9, 4 days later I did a pregnancy test, was positive:-), my Q is, about the temperature: Taken temperature Friday 12 July was 98.09f Saturday 13 was 98.2 Sunday 14 was 98.16 Monday 15 was 97.93 Is this normal the temperature to go like this?
Qi Medicine acupuncture Melbourne fertility and pregnancy. Temperature was going up and down, when I had my first scan they was to much water around the baby, Hos told me I could’t keep the baby, this explain why my temperature was going up and down, I had problems with pregnancy and did’t know it
Ugh thank you! Ever since coronavirus came around I have been taking my temperature more often and I run a temp of 99 but my regular temp is 98.7. An I just found out about this. They really need to teach us better in sex Ed. I have NO symptoms but a headache which is normal due to my medicine and I been getting on my mothers nerves. An it is just starting to be embarrassing. My period usually is hectic so my calendar isn’t really helping.. I think after lock down I am going to get birth control 🙇♀️
Thanks for your comment. yes- there is so much they do NOT teach us in reproductive ed, like how to track your cycle! It's so unbelievably important. Good luck getting through corona, and if you would like some more help with your period you can always book telehealth with me, doesn't matter where you are in the world! I should be able to give you some good guidance. www.qimedicine.com.au/book-acupuncture-online/
Qi Medicine Acupuncture Melbourne Fertility and Pregnancy I have a question! If my temp is 99.0 and I spotted my last cycle, me and my boyfriend thought I was still protected by my birth control (nexplanon) it expired 7 months ago and I’m having symptoms. What’s the chances I could be pregnant??? (I had no idea it was expired)
Not too much. It depends on when you got up to pee. You want to make sure you are testing after at least 3 hours of sleep, no less than that. Ideally, after 5 hours of sleep. I have an issue where I wake up about 2 hours before I need to, to use the restroom, so I just ordered Tempdrop (arm band that tracks BBT for restless sleepers) and went for their plan that allows you to get a full refund if you're not pregnant within 6 months of purchase.
Hi Ingrid, good question. This may interrupt a fully accurate reading yes. But I would encourage you to chart anyway, as this will still give you a general idea of where your temps are throughout your cycle. Good luck with the sleep apnoea, I hope this gets sorted for you soon :)
Why did I think BBT was inserting into the vagina to measure temp LMFAO. Was starting to think how can I do this when I have a period. Gross haha. Thank you for the video
I still don't understand how the BBT method can predict ovulation. It looks like just another gentle dip in the follicular phase temperatures. I personally find my mood more reliable and easier than this. If I feel absolutely amazing, that is simply my ovulation day. I tried ovulation tests but they are scandalously expensive, and I notice a lot of contradictions as the whether to use morning or afternoon urine. Mine said to not use morning urine!
Ah and I made my own cycle calender in word and I track my cycle, where I write down my dates, moods, cycle length, averages, LH peaks, temperatures, and days I had sex. I find apps unreliable. Everything shifts and moves and is all over the place, if I edit something in the past! It's so unreliable!
