Do you do online or paper charting. I've always done a half-a$$ attempt at paper charting in the past, but now that we're starting to TTC this cycle I'm obviously going to pay much more attention. Just wondering your thoughts on the difference between online and paper charting.
TIA!

I really like FF, mostly so I don't have to figure out my chart for myself. Not to say I always agree 100% with FF, but I love all the features, and playing around with it, etc.
So, online!

Online is so much easier. but the paper ones help you to identify why your online chart says what it does. Like when you ovulated and what your coverline should be. You can just plug in the numbers online and it'll tell you what it thinks but if you know how to do the paper version then you understand why FF is drawing certain conclusions.

its obv a personal preference, I used to exclusively chart with paper charts, but switched over when I started posting here, as it was easier for everybody to reference. I'd suggest charting online, and if you want a paper copy of it, you can always print it out.
this. plus it's just plain easier
Ditto.
I use the TCOYF software but update FF so that people can see my chart, if they want to.
