Charters Enter (Clicky Poll)

I'm curious to get everyone's take on fertilityfriend's role in charting. Also, if you care to share below the poll, did you chart before FF or was it your introduction to charting?

    I just wanted to throw in there, when I disagree with FF, it is typically due to user error. For example, I am the one reading the OPKs and, as we all know, they can be a little tricky. Or if there are extenuating circumstances, like I was sleep walking and I think it jacks my temp, or something like that, I will then throw my own interpretation in there.

    I started charting on FF after reading about FF on this site and talking to my sister who also charted with FF.  I also have read TCOYF (or at least most of it) and feel pretty confident that I could chart without FF's help.  I voted that I mostly trust FF, but occasionally we disagree.  Usually when we disagree it's because I have had a few weird temps, and I have never thought that FF was off by more than a day so I have never had to override FF CH.

    I started learning about charting by reading TCOYF, but I first started charting my own cycles with FF. I said I mostly agree with it. The only times when I've disagreed are when my BBT was favoring temps and when I had a weird sleep deprived temp on a day with a positive OPK. In the latter case, FF changed my O date to the correct day when I discarded the weird temp.

    I read about charting in one of my TTC books and started doing it on paper. As I got closer to O, though, I started wanting more certainty about the date and decided to start using FF to see how it would interpret my info. I still use the paper version too, in addition to FF.

    I had no clue what charting was- had never heard of it- until I got on TB, and was referred to all the posters to check out FF. I'm still struggling to be consistent with the charting but it's kinda neat to get into.
