Probably a dumb question, but I just ordered a basal thermometer on Amazon and was wondering if you're supposed to take your mouth temp or your vagina temp?

Vagina

You can do either, most people start with oral though.

Oral temping works, unless you’re a mouth breather then you won’t get reliable temps. Temping is seriously the best way to know when your body ovulates tho 🙌🏼 I always thought I ovulated two days after my positive opk and as it turns out i release my eggy the very next day. It’s awesome!

Orally, but you've got to do it the moment you wake up, before moving from bed or anything.

@bellyfullofbaby, you just blew my mind. I think I am a mouth breather and this NEVER occurred to me that it could be why my temps are always weird until I read that. 😲

Good to know! I think I'll start with vaginal, because I mouth breathe a lot during the spring and summer bc allergies
