Silly temp/charting question

When do you take your temperature if you hit the snooze button in the morning?

Do you do take it when the 1st alarm goes off? or the 2nd... which in my case is 20 min. later.

I've been taking it after the 2nd alarm...

Re: Silly temp/charting question

My snooze is goes off about 7 minutes after the first. I sometimes take it with both - 10 minutes is not going to change much.

I am not sure about how 20 minutes will affect it.

I think if it was me - If you seem to be taking the temp with the second alarm, I would take it then. But lets hear what the other girls have to say.

I think you have a grace period of up to an hour for temp taking. Not sure if that means an hour before or after the waking temperature, or if it's within an hour of it (30mins each way - before/after). Chat Icon

Yup! I was always told it has to be as soon as you are awake and try not to move much until you get a reading. That's why my thermometer is always on the nightstand.

Supposedly the Eckerd thermometer doesn't take that long. I am thinking about buying one for the next cycle.
