I used a cheepie digital thermometer when I started temping, it only had one decimal point 0.0 and it worked fine. You could clearly see OV etc. The batteries didnt last very long tho so I got a new Basal 2 decimal point thermometer 0.00 and works great lasted 5x as long as the cheepie one and still going strong.

But yes as Pixie said taking your temp the same time everyday and after a good sleep is most important ]]> Sun, 15 May 2011 09:28:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39174&PID=1326326&title=thermometer#1326326 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39174&PID=1326173&title=thermometer#1326173 Author: PixieL

A Basal is more accurate because it gives you 2 decimal points. I used a digital and it was fine because the temp drop was not so slight that you need 2 decimal points. Ovulation was clear from the digital (cheaper) thermometer. Does that make sense? Most important thing is to temp at the same time every morning after being asleep for a few hours. If you do at different times or get up and go to the loo it doesn't work at all. I set my alarm for early then went back to sleep. Good luck!]]> Sat, 14 May 2011 21:43:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39174&PID=1326173&title=thermometer#1326173 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39174&PID=1326007&title=thermometer#1326007 Author: Cinderella

Am planning to start charting temp for ov this month. Period due tomorrow. What is the difference between a digital thermometer and a Basal thermometer? Don't want to go out and spen money if my own is accurate enough.]]> Sat, 14 May 2011 16:27:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39174&PID=1326007&title=thermometer#1326007
