hey purpley... why would the instructions tell you to keep it in for 5 mins if it starts beeping after 60 seconds?! Surely the beeping means that the temp is taken and you can take it out!!

I am with the other girls.. doesnt matter what way you take your temp as long as it is same time everyday and after 3 hrs solid sleep.

I did start off temping orally and I found that my temps were just all over the place so decided to see the difference on this cycle and went vaginally.. check out my charts - the blue is orally and green is vaginally. but in the end it is up to you which way you find more comfortable.
