Charting......


Hey girls

OK, well as you can see by my ticker we are going to start TTC later this year, but my periods are not exactly regular since having Alfie. They vary from 28 - 33 days, which is very unlike me as I used to be 28 days almost to the hour

Well, I am hoping to get an idea of my cycle as I am no way near as sure of it as I used to be, so I am going to start charting in order to get some sort of idea about what and when things are going on with me.

I have joined FF, and I have 2 lessons on the whole charting thing, which I am going to have a look thru in a little while.

To get me started, where do I get the thermometers from, just a normal chemsit, and is it called a BBT or something like that?
And I am going to need lots of help as it is all gobble de gook to me

Any help really appreciated! x

Hey Tam!

You can get a BBT set from Boots (around about £9.00). It comes with a thermometer and a little book to chart your temps in (and a little file thing to put them away in).

Good luck for later on!

Thanks CherryBlossom.....I will have a nose in a mo!

According to Fertillity Friend, I have a high chance of already conceiving As my periods are all over the show, it has given me 2 possible days AF will turn up, and 3 possible Ovultion days........and a BD session not long before they have estimated my 1st ovulation, which was a day or so before my estimates!

Oh well, I am due on the 7th or the 8th so I will have to wait and see! But I don't 'feel' any different to normal when about this far off AF.

I am sure FF is wrong? (I mean I have only been able to put in the last 3 cycles as I can't remember before then).....hence the wanting to chart! x

Got one from boots at £12 - book was useless if you use fertility friend charting site!

When I started again I think I got a .2 digital thermometer for like a couple of quid from ebay. Make sure its a .2 thermometer!

Already told you on MSN what I think if you have irregular cycles now and are NOT ttc now then its really pointless for you at the moment x x

Thanks girls...

Thanks Wobs, what you said made perfect sense, so I will hold off on that then come back to you when I start! x

Thanks Suz I am too, but I wanna get a few things sorted before we do and would be nice to have a bit more alone time with Alfie.......so late 2008 it is! Oi Suz, maybe we could be going thru it together eh?! x
