I was just thinking... I remember a number of us talking about our charts looking really wonky earlier this month. I also remember a thread about Walgreens BBTs not being quite right, giving some funky temps. I'm the newest addition to that list.

I'm now wondering if there is a correlation between our wonky looking charts and these crap BBTs. I mean, I posted about my body loving 97.33 this cycle when I had gotten in 3 times in 10 days, I ended up having that temp 4 times. Now today after O'ing, it tries to give me 97.33 again when my other BBT says 97.71. Now we hear that jewelsgurl is on a 97.33 streak with her Walgreens BBT.

This is very curious...

Hmmmm....that is VERY interesting. i would probably write a complaint to WalGreens and let them know. I would also return my BBT.

I'm sure glad I still have my first one. It may take longer to register a temp, but at least it gave me a temp that makes sense for where I am in my cycle.

I don't use the Walgreen Temp, but for the 6th time in 11 days since i O'd, I got 35.50! I have been using a normal thermometer, but had bought a BBT one for next cycle. So this morning, after getting 35.50 AGAIN, I used the BBT and got the exact same temp!

Could it be that, that is just my body temp now. I don't think I'm pregnant, as all the signs are pointing to AF, but my temp is higher than pre-o'ing.

Get the Walmart one, I haven't had any trouble with it so far. That is odd that so many of you are getting repeat temps over and over. I get some that are close, but always slightly different, even if it's just 97.32 to 97.33, it's different.

Okay... something has got to be up with that BBT.

I just took my temp with the Walgreens BBT and it came back at 98.90. I immediately took it with my Rite Aid BBT and it came back at 99.14

I wouldn't think there should be that much difference between the two, ya know.

I can't remember where I bought my thermometer this time around. I know it's been stuck on certain temps as well. I think that's kind of common no matter which thermometer you use.

That's why I think I'm gonna stick with my old Rite Aid BBT. It might take longer to give me my temp, but it's never done anything like this new one is doing.

Wow, that stinks! It could really mess you up! I have the WM one and don't remember getting the same temp twice...

See... I think it's very strange that this many girls in so many different places would be having the same complaints and the only common denominator is the Walgreen's BBT.

Odd.
