Question for you ladies..

in Trying to Get Pregnant

I am completely new to the TTC lingo and how charting works. We are considering TTC sometime next year, but I am confused about temps and charting and all that other stuff.. to be honest I thought you just had sex and did it the old fashioned way! I didn't realize there was so much more..

 Is there a website (on thenest or other) that explains charting and temps and all that other crazy stuff?? And also what all the abbreviations are? (BFP, LMP, etc?)

 Sorry for such newbie questions, but it would really help, thanks!

    you can learn a lot through the tutorials on fertilityfriend.com  but the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility was the most educational.

    <~~ at the bottom of all the boards and "my boards" is a bump glossary. GL!
