Charting ?

Mocha Girl

I have not been good about charting since my D&C, but I was just looking at the 3 temps that I did take this week and I am now officially below the coverline from my BFP chart. It's sad to watch it drop...

Did you pick up your charting habit immediately after your m/c(s) or D&C(s)?

I'm so sorry.  

I didn't chart our TTA cycle right after the D&C, but picked it up the next month once we started actively TTC again.  In my case, it was a good thing because I really haven't been ovulating & was able to figure that out pretty quickly.  

But I know not everyone is as able to jump back into things right away.  I guess to help with my grief I needed to know I was back to TTC ASAP to help.  I can see it being the complete opposite, too! 

Hope this helps, & good luck!

I didn't chart because it caused me too much stress, but I wanted to let you know I have been thinking of you.  When are you going to be in MI next?

I took about two weeks off, while I was bleeding. I didn't see the point and I was still in my black hole.

When I crawled out of my hole two weeks later, I started up the temping again.

I'm planning to pick it back up after my period returns.

Hi there! I was just looking at FB - Did you make it to somerset today?! I don't have my next trip planned, but I'm sure it'll be August or September. I try to go back home as often as I can, even if it's just for the weekend! I'll keep you posted!

I wasn't going to chart since we are TTA until we have the testing done, but I thought I should pick it back up again just so I can keep track of my cycles. I hate it when AF sneaks up on me and when I chart, I can at least be prepared!

no, not charting.  i promised myself i wouldn't chart for at least the first cycle that we were trying (which is this cycle).  surprisingly i don't even miss it.  )  i have a love/hate relationship w/ charting and i just didn't feel up to it again.  so we'll see how long i can go w/o charting.

I did make it over to Somerset, aka the mother-ship, and got some great sales.  I love that place!  Back was hurting though so only spent time on the north

I don't blame you, AF is a mutha-f!

I also have a love/hate relationship. I think this is why I haven't been temping every.single.day.... I want to chart, but I don't want it to make me crazy.

What fun is retail therapy if you're hurting! Ugh - sorry you didn't get to cover more ground at the mother-ship - LOL!

once i start charting/temping i can't stop so i'm trying to hold off.  it's very addicting for me and makes the days drag on forever b/c i can't wait to go to bed so i can find out what my temp is the next day.  lol

I've been hesitant about it. But I wanted/needed to see if I was Oing. But I've skipped some days. It's been hard to say the least

After my first m/c, I thought I'd wait for AF to come back once before I started charting again.  But it didn't come back, so I started charting after like 35-40 days to see what was up.  Then I got pregnant... and then lost that one too.  I haven't started charting again since then (that was April).  I just don't feel like it
