Heating pad increasing BBT?

[sdmommy]

So I started using a heating pad at night trying to get some more ions for my boy sway...but once I started using it I noticed my BBT has been up. I use it on the lowest setting, and last night I tried to sleep with it to the side of me instead on top of me but my temp was still a little high this morning. I'm not sure how/why higher temps sway girl (progesterone?) so is it still ok?

Yes, it will increase your body temperature- but it doesn't reflect what the hormones do to your body.

It def. affects your temp - now whether that corresponds to anything, we don't truly know.

Regardless of ions, I have read a pretty convincing study that found (at least in cows anyway) being kept warmer led to more boys conceived!!

Try to sleep on top of it and don't use cover on top of you if you can sleep like that.
