How often do you take your temperature?

How often do you take your temperature (rectal or otherwise) ?

A. When you are in good heath

B. When you are sick

A: In good health, mostly whenever I feel like it, some times once a week, sometimes once a month, basically whenever the mood strikes.

B: When i'm not feeling good, I always check it at the first sign that something might be coming on, then several times a day, usually once in the morning, maybe once when I get home from work, then once just before bed. I'll check it more often than that if i'm really feeling lousy, but thankfully that doesn't happen very often.

Hopefully the more the better!!

Generally 2 times a week. When I am sick, probably once per four hours. And when I am naughty, it stays there for a long time until my hubby thinks I haven't learned my lesson.

Once a week, more if I'm doing Med-Play with my friend.

B: When i'm not feeling good.

B, sometimes A

Once a week

Every day --- usually in the morning before getting out of bed

Once every 2 to 3 days

When needed

When I'm not feeling well and occasionally just to see how I'm doing...maybe twice a week.

Not often enough.

A and B for me...

A. I like to just insert and leave it in for a little longer than usual... and have to twist to be sure I get a good depth and reading.. Once a week at the least

B. Even if I know I have a fever I check it.. Sometimes every 4-6 hours (like a child so I can monitor fever and take Tylenol if needed..)

😃

Usually in the morning before getting out of bed

A: About once a week I usually check my rectal temperature.

B: When I'm sick I check it more often - at least 3 times a day; in the morning, at lunch and in the evening.

I check it several times a week,(By Rectum) and when I'm sick, every day several times until fever is gone,

Not too often usually, but my record was when I was a teenager, I took it every 10 minutes for a whole day to see how it varied throughout the day and with each type of activity I did.

A: not so often

B: When the temperature is high, every few hours.

I realize I started this thread, but did not give my own answers, here they are:

A. As my girlfriend and I enjoy taking each other's temperature it must be at least once a week, usually during the weekend.

B. When I am sick, I take my temp twice a day, morning and evening. But I might take it again if I feel suddently much better or much worse.

During my infant and toddler years, whenever I did not look good in the face, my mom took my rectal temperature.

As I was growing up, my temperature was not taken much. It was taken in the doctor's office under my arm and under my tongue at home whenever I was sick and when I felt warm.

C. To determine my fertility!

C. To determine my fertility! Also, "B", when my husband or I are not feeling well.

Pretty much whenever my Mistress wants too, usually 2 to 3 times a week or sometimes every morning and it is her call!

Usually once a week,when I'm sick every 2-4 hours.

I take my temperature twice a day. Each time I use a rectal thermometer

How often I can. When I'm sick I do it every day, 4 or 5 times.

How often do you take your temperature (rectal or otherwise) ?

A. When you are in good heath

=> Usually once or twice a week for fun with a good old cold glass rectal thermometer in my anus while lying on my back.

B. When you are sick

=> 2 to 3 times a day if the illness comes with a fever.

I cover all areas. I definitely take my temp when feeling feverish, but I also do it anytime my heart desires.

For fun, once a month at most, usually less than that even.

When actually sick (or feeling like it), once or twice a day. Generally once in the morning and once at night.

I take it rectally because I like it and out of habit, rather than any "accuracy" reasons.
