Question(s) about charting
Where do I start getting info about all of this? I'm going off BC in June, and we're starting the whole TTC process in July/August, so if anyone can fill me in on where to go, let me know. I know a lot of you have used that book (Taking Control of your Fertility?), but if there are any online resources, I'm curious to hear about them!
Re: Question(s) about charting
I use Fertility Friend online (as do most people on the nest), however there are other sites. When you sign up they email you everyday for 20 days a new lesson about charting and fertility monitors, etc.
I havent read TCOYF... if we don't get another BFP in the next month or so, I'll probably pick it up.

I loved TCOYF and Fertility Friend.
They were both very helpful! I had no idea there was so much about my body I didn't really know.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
I definitely recommend Taking Charge of Your Fertility. I think you can find it on Amazon for pretty cheap. I tried their website for charting and didn't really like it though.
Instead, I use FF for charting and read the lessons that they send you in the beginning. It's a ton of information, but I honestly think it's worth it to learn so much about your body.

Ah, I totally could have given you mine.. save the postage
I really liked the free tutorials on FF, more so than the book actually. The book is a great reference but the FF tutorials were much more to the point.
Baby #2: Surprise BFP 9.19.12, EDD 5.24.13, natural m/c 10.19.13 at 9w
I use FF and recently started temping and using OV kits, which have proven to be much more insightful than just looking up my "fertile week." charting was really confusing to me at first, but the more work I did as far as taking notice of things such as temp and CM, the more it made sense. I would definitely recommend the FF lessons as well. I have TCOYF but I haven't read it yet. like Erinn said, if I don't get a BFP in the next month or two, I'll probably read it.
good luck!

holy temp dip! Hope that's an O dip, if so, AWESOME timing!
This is everything I used as well. Good luck!
