This is how I started off at first. I just invest in the Clearblue Easy Monitor and will use it when we start TTC again. We are giving our self a break from TTC . If it happens then it happens.

If I knew how to chart-- maybe I would!

We are not really TTC til May/June though-- after our big "before we have a baby trip"... by then, maybe I will.

nope. charted and used OPKs for 3 months and ovulated on the same day every time. i figure that if we bd around that time every month we should be fine.

no tp tell you the truth I went to FF and the chart confused the hell out of me, so then I went back to mymonthlycycles.com and checked we I was OV and have been winging it since. Its 100% on when I get AF, but no babies yet!

Re: Is anyone not charting?

Not charting. Not temping. Never have. Never will.It seems like something that would be more counterproductive than helpful to me. It would never change the days DH and I BD anyway. My doctor said, and I quote "I havent recommended a basal body thermometer in over 10 years." The truth is, our issues are beyond charting and temping.

Re: Is anyone not charting?

I never really did. I did chart my cycles but never did temps. We used OPKs, very easy, and it worked great!

Re: Is anyone not charting?

I never charted. I only used a saliva OPK to check to make sure I was ovulating. (Because I went through such medical 'stuff' over the past few years and wasn't ovulating.)

I am not charting. When we start TTC, I am just going to wing it (I have a pretty good idea of when I ovulate each month). We shall see what happens!

Re: Is anyone not charting?

I've stopped charting. It gets to be too much and I obsess way too much.

If your cycle is the same every month I don't see a need to chart.

Not charting...don't know if I ever will.

Just BDing during the time mymonthlycycle.com says and also during the time it calculates if I have a 40 day cycle. (mymonthlycycle.com takes the average of the last 8 cycles) but for the last 3 months my cycle has been 40 days.

We are starting to TTC soon, but I am going to hold off on charting until we've been trying for 2 or 3 months.

Re: Is anyone not charting?

I'm charting but not to figure out my O days just to see my body temps after O. I use the CBEFM to figure out if I'm Oing.
