Thread: Hi there!

Hi everyone! I just went off my BCP in hopes of TTC #2! Last time it took us 7 cycles to get pg, so this time around I have decided to start charting. Wow, there is a lot to learn!

Welcome, Amanda (I assume that's your name?)

It is a lot to learn in the beginning, but you'll be a pro in no time. Will you be using Fertilityfriend.com? They have a tutorial that really helps.

LOVE the pic of your LO in your siggy. So cute!

Yay! Hi, Amanda!

I agree with Mary. On Fertility Friend, they have a great charting course that takes you through everything you need to know in small sections so it's not overwhelming. Also, you could read Taking Charge of Your Fertility. They both cover the same material.

Ooh, I hope we get to share a birth board again! Good luck!

So I totally suck at temping. I'm always forgetting, and DD has me up a lot at night so I never get a full nights sleep. Also I work shift work so I work nights and that is totally thowing me off. But I am really liking the charting without the temps. Just keeping a record of Bd'ing and CM etc. Hoping I O soon as I am starting my days off and can actually BD! (working opposite shifts as DH is NOT good for TTC!! *lol*)

Just wanted to say good luck!!

Don't worry about the temping. I can't imagine trying o temp while working your shift. Monitoring your CM will give you a ton of info about when you're fertile. Are you using OPKs too? Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!
