Im out!
This month I was 3 days early (TBAF) last month I was a week late (assuming because of meds).
Ok, that's it..I want to start charting!!!
If anyone can give me the "steps" I would appreciate it.
TBAF showed today, when would I start charting?
I have been on here for so long, thought I would have it "down pat" but it looks like charting may be the way to go!
Why is my cycle so wierd (late, early)..its hard to "keep up".
Im still not giving up!! I know its a long process, but, im ready to be announcing BFP Soon!!!
TY ladies for letting me ask/vent!

Re: Im out!
I am so sorry. I am 90% + that I am out too. TBAF hasn't made her appearance but I know she is a comin'.  I want to start charting too. I am clueless about it.

Re: Im out!
Dawn, My cycle was really weird too for a year- anywhere from a 27 to 36 day cycle. I charted for 1 month and my dr said not too. I hated it too. I only used the Answer OPK test. Finally the last 3 months my cycles were either 29 or 30 days and my OPK was positive CD15 for those 3 months too so I basically knew when I was going to O. I also just had an HSG so that could have done something or maybe not, could have just been that we just finally got it right. What I did different this month from any other was had BD 2 days prior to O day so cycle day 13 and 14 got my surge on 15 BD on that day and on CD 16 and 17 b/c on CD 16 I still got a positive OPK took a break on CD 18 and then BD on CD 19, and it worked for us. I wish you the best of luck !!!!

Re: Im out!
I have been charting for the past year. If you don't already own it, I would get the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. It has all you need to know about charting. I refer to it all the time.

I just started charting as well. fertilityfriend.com seemed to have a lot of information and I know a lot of girls on this board use them as well.

Re: Im out!
I'm sorry. 
I'm out this month too and though we've only been trying since December, it is very frustrating. I would definitely recommend the book "Taking control of your fertility." I've been using fertility friend and tonight, I'm buying some OPKs.
Don't give up!
ETA - I've been charting since the end of January and I've noticed that the more I chart, the more I learn. It may take a while to start seeing patterns and recognizing signs.

Re: Im out!
I have become a huge fan of charting. After 8+ months of charting, I am still learning things every month! It's well worth the minute or two it takes it the morning!!
