Re: Basal Thermometer
I don't know what the difference is, but I know you have to use the basal thermometer.

Re: Basal Thermometer
Basal gives you a more accurate reading I believe. For example, if you took your temp, and it was 98.6 on a regular thermometer, on a Basal, it will tell you 98.62.

Really?? Which one are you using? I use BD & it only gives numbers like 98.6.

Re: Basal Thermometer
I got mine off of Amazon. I don't have it on me, but when I get home I will look into the brand.
ETS: yours could automatically round your temp down, which I believe (I could be wrong) is what some of them do.
