Basal Body Temperature and Pregnancy

January 14, 2009

When a woman is trying to get pregnant and is having a hard time trying to conceive or even if she is trying to plan it, finding her BBT or basal body temperature can be vital in conception. A for the body is generally around 98.6°F. The degree in temperature will also fluctuate depending on the time of the month such as before, during and after your normal temperature menstrual cycle.

There are actually several different things that can affect your BBT temperature. These include alcohol, stress, the amount of sleep, flying and illness (which includes infection).It is important to take into consideration if you are taking any medications. All of these and a few others can affect your BBT at any given time.

Knowing the proper way to get your BBT temperature is vital when trying to conceive. The proper tool is vital as well which is a glass fertility thermometer, which is the best choice or, a digital thermometer that is unbreakable. The glass fertility thermometer is the best choice for the job. It actually beeps when you have reached a stable temperature.

When it comes to taking your temperature, it can be from the mouth, vagina or your rectum. It is very important that you choose the same way to take your temperature each and every time. Consistency is very important in order to have a pattern in your temperature.

If you are taking your temperature for the purpose of getting pregnant, you will want to use a chart for tracking your temperature. The start of your process is the very first day of your menstrual cycle once it is in full bloom. Remember, spotting does not count. It is important to take your temp during your entire cycle and of course, do not forget, your temp will drop at the beginning.

Fill in all of the information on the chart. Use only a BBT thermometer, take it each morning before rising, do not eat or drink anything before taking your temp, use an arrow on days that you have sex and make any special notes such as illness or issues. Change charts for each period cycle.
