TTC After a Loss

Charting Question

I started charting this cycle, so far there isnt much there but 3 temps... well my temp today was an open circle, I am assuming that is because I marked sleep deprived. 

This is the problem, I can't really sleep through the night now because I know I have to wake up and temp.  I know it sounds funny, but I have to temp at 4:00 with DH when he wakes up because otherwise I wouldn't have the same time everyday (I dont always go back to sleep).  Did you have a hard time sleeping when you first started, and should I just ignore the sleep deprivation mark? 

Re: Charting Question

  • I don't think I would mark sleep deprived if you are getting atleast 3 hours of sleep (that is what they tell you to get for accurate temps)? I have marked it on my chart but usually it is when I was in bed for 6-8 hours but didn't stay asleep, or tossed and turned all night. IMHO...HTH.

    If you keep marking sleep deprived you will just have a chart will all open circles. Consistency is good too, so if they circles don't bother you, I don't think they effect FF...

  • Thank you.  Now one more question... how do I put the FF ticker or link in my siggy?
  • Oh, that is easy. If you go to your chart there is an option just above the calendar that says "ticker" if you click there it will give you the code.

    If you want the link to your chart for your siggy, I can't remember how to do it :( sorry. But I know someone else does - you may need to post a new thread to ask.

  • Here's how to get your ticker in your siggy, and click through to your chart.

    Log into fertility friend.  On the left side, click Sharing, then go to Tickers, click on Customize Your Charting Ticker, go all through customizing it.  Right before you click Done, copy the html code, and paste that into your profile on thebump.  Don't forget to click Done after you've copy and pasted it into your bump profile.

    I did have a hard time sleeping when I first started charting. The first cycle were TTC w/ temping, I was so nervous about Oing I messed up my temps right in the middle of my cycle because I couldn't sleep! Now it's totally routine, even on the weekends. GL
