    Mine said under the tounge but not directly in the middle... our Bbt thermometer Was cheap but seems like any other. Whether it is or not Im unsure of but Walgreens sells one that's cheap! Good luck lady!

    I was always told to use a bbt thermometer, they are more accurate.

    I would buy a bbt.. I took my temp by mouth

    Get a bbt I do it by mouth as well. Just make sure its at the same time everyday.

    bbt by mouth. Do it first thing in the morning as soon as you wake, before you get up to use the restroom. Also I cut out all alcohol, drinking the night before can affect your temp, that's what my dr said and I found it to be true.

    They say bbt is best b.c. that's what its designed for. I liked doing vaginal b.c. there are less variables to worry about. You may sleep with ur mouth open and not know it.
    If you have a smart phone like iphone or droid I suggest downloading ovuview. Its a digital bbt and it graphs it automatically which is nice. Also it has many tools, let's you know when ur suppose to ovulate, when ur expected period is. Has section for syptoms you are feeling. So you can learn about ur body. And see signs of ovulation. There is also an alarm so it tells you when to wake and take ur temp. That's very important.

    I hope you get good results soon! I used this for 2 months(was away from huuby first ovulation) and I got pg in month two. Other things I changed was I used pre-seed lube and elevated my booty.
