Detecting ovulation based on body temperature

If you want to maximize your chances of getting pregnant, taking your body temperature can help you know when to conceive.

  • During your cycle, your temperature fluctuates.
  • If your cycle is not regular, analyzing your temperature curve can help you identify when you are ovulating, that is, when you are most fertile.
  • From the beginning of your cycle (first day of menstruation) to day 14, your temperature is pretty much the same, around 98,6 °F. It drops sharply just before ovulation and then rises back above 98,6 °F. It is this sharp drop that you need to spot.
  • For a reliable result, always take your temperature at the same time, in the morning when you get up.

Hello ladies I just began my journey for my rainbow baby. I know you can ovulate two weeks after mc and today I not only got bfp ovulation test but also a high bbt temperature. This would be calendar day 11 for me I'm so nervous but I really want to baby dance now. Anyone else try right after mc to get pregnant or did you all wait?
