BBT thermometer recommendations

Can anyone recommend a BBT thermometer please? 🙂

I'm going into month 4 of ttc and want to make sure ovulation is happening

Hi OP, I know it's not what you've asked, so if nothing else it will give this a bump!

When I looked into it, BBT tracking had mixed write ups on accuracy and ability to help with tracking for ovulation. Is there a reason you don't want to try hormonal tracking? I'd tried a few things and then tried a Clearblue ovulation test, discovered my peak days were two off what I was expecting and it worked.

(Sorry that sounds like a bloody Clearblue advert, it's not supposed to. Other brands of ovulation tests are available 😂)

Thanks for replying! I have been using the pink clear blue tests where you get the smiley face and they have shown my LH surge (didn't have one this month though) but they are quite pricey. I'm going to try the easy @ home ones this time round. Which clear blue have you used?

I saw that tracking your temperature can confirm ovulation actually happened but not sure where to even start with that!

I have the same question @sjwx so hopefully someone will pick this up (or did you get an answer elsewhere?) I've actually got a thermometer from Amazon, but this morning decided to take my temp three times in a row to test it, and I got three very different answers. So that's been a waste of time!
