Ovulation basal body temperature

Hi

Did anyone chart their basal body temperature to find out when they’re ovulating and did it work?

I dont temp check. But i was thinking about getting opks maybe the cheapie internet ones. Havent decided yet. My hcg os finally neg i wait now for af.

How long before your first af?

I use a BBT but it will only tell you after you’ve ovulated. Ovulation kits or cervical mucus is more useful.

I did before my first pregnancy (living child) and before this current pregnancy of unknown location. Yes, it worked in terms of finding ovulation day. I really like fertility charting because I know so much more about my body

I chart my temps, and as mentioned above it only indicates when ovulation has already occurred. Cervical fluid/mucus is a better indicator of when it’s about to happening or is happening. I’ve charted for about 10months and using this method I got pregnant with my ectopic on the first try. I’m just now chatting to chart again after my ectopic. A good book to read to learn about temping and charting is called Taking Charge of My Fertility. It reviews the whole process what everything means, different indicators, and common problems or illnesses that women face. I highly recommend it. My friend had recommended it to me. It’s basically everything that should have been taught in health class but probably wasn’t.

I have that book! Why isn’t it taught at schools! I was even teaching my mum from it!

I know! Isn’t it awesome! I’m so glad my friend gave it to me to read.
