@Jay-Bee01, my clicks one does the same, it just takes forever and does not beep, that is why I am so confused :unsure:

@ Blou, I take my temp each morning at the same time with a Clicks digital cheapie. I press the button and then my previous temp flashes and then it goes to 37 degrees and then to nil. I put it in my mouth and +- max 10-15 seconds it beeps with my new temp.

7 Minutes sounds way to long as it is supposed to be quick and even if your temp fluctuates the thermometer should still work. Very strange.

How does your Clicks one work?

Hi ladies. I received my basal thermometer yesterday, I am on CD21 already, so I think I will finish this cycle with my old thermometer otherwise it might mess up my charts. :blink:

I have a question for you ladies tracking your bbt, with both my clicks digital thermometer and the new basal thermometer, they take too long to beep to indicate they have a stable reading, I heard my old thermometer beep once, otherwise I just wait and wait and wait and nothing, with the new basal thermometer it is the same thing, I waited for 7 minutes this morning when I tested it, and finally stopped because I cannot wait that long.

With my old thermometer I just used to take my bbt for the same amount of time every morning and used that reading. I am not sure if my temperature just fluctuates too much for the thermometers to get a stable reading, do you have the same problem or is it just me? :S

How long do you take your temperature? :huh:

Hi ladies

How is everyone doing? Brr its cold in Cape Town and I have been eating up a storm.. very naughty :laugh:

AFM, since Friday my temp has risen each day by a degree and on Sunday and Monday it stayed the same as 36.7 so yesterday Ovufriend app has set my ovulation date as Friday. This morning my temp is 36.8 so Ovufriend set my ovulation date as Sunday so now I am only 3DPO!! My cover line post ovulation is always 36.4 but luckily we covered our bases.
Will have to wait and see what my temp does tomorrow, so frustrating.

@Chanti, I have also been using a regular Clicks digital oral thermometer, but it only has one decimal place. I decided that I would give an actual Basal Thermometer a try ;)
