Charting and Technology
Hi all
I'm just starting my first cycle of FAM for TTA. I'm wondering what means you all use for charting? I got in as a BETA tester for the tcoyf web-based software, I have a FertilityFriend account, and I have the paper charts. Which method would you recommend?? I'm not opposed to paying for FF if its reliable, but the tcoyf one seems great too...

For TTA, the tcoyf software is better. I have the software on my machine for the past 5+ years and so worth it to me.

For TTA, I personally wouldn't use Fertility Friend. I use paper charts (simpler and quicker, IMO), and it's happened more than once that when I put data into Fertility Friend, FF "disagrees" with the NFP rules I learned... That might be ok if you're TTC and BD'ing every day or every other day anyway, but when you're TTA, you want to follow the rules as closely as possible.
I have heard that TCOYF's software is good, but I haven't tried it myself.
Ditto.
Me too. I don't have any desire to go online with it. I try to keep it simple so I just write everything down right after I take my temp.
I'm TTA too. My first 3 months paper only, this month I'm using FF too to see what I think. I plan on always paper charting because it's easier to circle my temp first thing in the morning and not have to remember anything.
I am experiencing that FF is a little different from what I can decipher on my paper chart using the rules in TCOYF, but it still predicts my menses quite well, so it's not too far off.
Long story short, I plan on doing both.
