What method are you using to TTC?

I think I got most of the popular options but just in case I missed one there is an "other" as well.

If you chose "other" I would appreciate if you explain

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I use OPK's in combination with a saliva monitor

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

We're winging it! Although this is only month 2 of trying so if it doesn't happen in the next month or two, we'll be using other methods.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I had to choose other - I am being monitored by a RE every few days with bloodwork and sonograms.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

We were using a combo of opks and the saliva monitor. Now we are just going to wing it for a while till our next gyno appt in Nov. I was getting so tired of it all that I just need a small break.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Well, in the beginning we were just winging it but only for a couple of months. Then we started using OPKs and last cycle was my first temping. We're on to month 5 or 6 (not sure!) of TTC. And we've been using preseed since the begining. It's starting to get frustrating.....

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I temped and followed my CM. I tried OPKs one month and it messed me up so that was it for me.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I answered other, natural family planning. Used to avoid pregnancy also

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Winging it right now, this is only my 2nd month off bcp, we will see what happens and after a few months then we will try other methods iff needed

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

OpK's and temping from day one

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Temping & OPKS.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

We used OPKs

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Never wanted to do this, but upon request from my RE, I use OPKs and temping/charting. They are consistent with each other.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I have been using OPK's and temping/charting after winging it for the first 2-3 months. Using both OPK's and temping has been really helpful in terms of timing.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I have done all of the above, but right now I am just using the fertility monitor and OPK's to back it up.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I hit other.
I am just bding every other day from cd 8 - 20.

I did try the OPK thing but either I am not ovulating, I missed my surge, or it didn't work right; it was very cheap.

I will probably invest in a more expensive one this month if AF shows up.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Just starting trying, used answer OPK this month. I'm 6 DPO today.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

We winged it the first 2 months and then used an OPK the 3rd month and I got PG that month.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I'm not sure yet what we're doing.
The first month we just winged it and this month I bought OPK's but I never got a + so I think I tested too early so we just BD everyday for about a week. If we don't get a BFP this month I'll buy them again and test earlier.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

this month i will be using OPK's and getting down and dirty with my DH

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

Seeing an RE...currently in the middle of my second injectible cycle.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

I was using the CBEFM, and I thank God that I spent the money to buy it. It's how I found out I wasn't ovulating.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

My plan and my GYN's was to wing it for 6 months. Well, we got PG in the first month of trying. My doctor told me to come back in 6 months if I was still not PG, I came back in 3 weeks and I was.

Re: What method are you using to TTC?

We are taking the "if it happens, it happens" approach. I won't start to chart/temp/use OPKs until nothing has happened for about 6-7 months.
