Apparently there is a certain test that you can get all i have is a normal thermometer where can i find this special thermometer

Pharmacy and Walmart are probably your best shot. You can get digital and glass ones. THey both work the same from what I understand, just a matter of preference.

so a regular thermometer would be okay cause all we have here in jackson is a kmart and i checked there and i didn't see em.

A basel thermometer is way more accurate then a regular one. You could try it, but it probably wouldn't work all that great. If you have a k-mart with a pharmacy they should have them. They are usually with the OPK and such. Any pharmacy should carry them. You can also order them online too. I can't give out website addresses, but do a search and you should find them.

The first few months I charted, I used a reg. digital thermometer that I bought at the Dollar General store for $3.99. It worked fine for me and gave me a clear O. I finally found a bbt at cvs...it's a cvs brand digital bbt therm. So that's what I've been using this month. I really can't tell much of a difference in my charts now that I'm using a bbt.

As the previous poster said, there are sites online that sell them, you should be able to find one by searching. Good luck!!
