Hello everyone! My name is Andrea, but you can feel free to refer to me however you like. I'm new to the community (literally just joined like, ten minutes ago), and I've read through the FAQs to get started. I guess it'll help if I go ahead and use the question guide thinger to get things started:
1) Are you new to FAM or an experienced FAM user?

As an example, my average post-ovulatory "jump" is about 0.56°F... So an error margin of ±0.3°F, being over half of that amount, could easily obscure the change.
E.G.: if my temps on a more accurate thermometer are (ovulation-date bolded):
96.85 96.43 96.85 97.19 97.32
An unfavourable 0.3° shift could make those same temps look like:
97.0 96.7 97.1 96.9 97.0
Which makes it really hard to tell where the ovulation is, since there's no distinct shift.
You can often buy basal thermometers in the drugstore, too -- check in the 'family planning' section with the pregnancy tests, or ask the pharmacist.
