to me it seems very different than all the other charts I've been looking at. This is also my first chart I have done.

I don't know much about ff but Take Charge Of Your Own Fertility is an awesome book and comes with a program. You can install it on your computeror you and buy just the program online and it's wonderfull. You have to adjust your temp if you wake up at different times i know that and it does it all for you. Might be worth giving it a shot.

good job on your chart Annick!
So far so good, i dont think you ovulated yet, unless you ovulated on day 9...(though i think that would be too early given your longer cycles) but you are doing great. keep it up.
our charts allll look so different, and when you have longer cycles, you are bound to see some ups and downs. are you temping same time every day etc?
Thanks for sharing!
What is going on with ff on your end?

Thank you

I may go purchase that after a few months of TTC on our own and it not working.
I think my DH isnt happy with my charting...he knows I used to get pregnant on my own no problem etc. Says if I add the stress of making sure my temps are up and my cm is there, then it will decrease our chances of TTC following reversal in a couple weeks. Which I agree with him, but this is something for me to do to get a feel of how things are going in the month with my body until TR, not as a thing I must do just yet. I've been proned to delayed cycles due to the littlest of stresses, which is not good. But a major stress I had was not being able to conceive with him. (hes not my kids father) I had my period delayed for weeks(13 to be exact) and Im thinking its becasue of the stress that I was letting his family and friends down. I would cry the last many months, knowing I wanted another baby but didnt have the funds to get it done, and was worried I wouldnt be a candidate to get it reversed.My DHs friends would ask, "so when are you going to have another and make him a daddy?", and when I say I have my tubes tied, I get weird looks and nasty comments. One had asked me, "Have you ever thought to take him into consideration being he may want kids?" I was in shock...LOL Dh said to not worry on their comments. We knew each other for years prior to getting together, so he knew I had them tied..Oh well, they can keep saying those things, Im not worried. We will have it one day
Again, thanks, I will go check it out.

FF still the same thing of the error message. I even used my other email addy and it says its declined...I got an email from customer service and apparently I tried to sign up too many times. Which to me is a load of dung. But which ever, I printed up the chart and been doing it myself.
Im proned to either ovulating early or late...when I got pregnant with my 2nd son Justin, I had ovulated during my menses...and conceived him on my last day of my menses...Kevin..my first period after Justin was born was a 33 day cycle, but I didnt conceive him till day 30 (that was my last period till I had him LOL)...Sean was pretty much inbetween my cycle and Jayson, well i didnt even get a cycle after kevin was born cus i was bf'ing him 6-8/day, so I didnt know I was pregnant until I was close to 13 weeks along. I was in denial..LOL that I could be even pregnant, kept telling my doctor your crazy and trying to make me mad. lol he was right. If you look at the chart above, you will see hours, i do quite regularly between 7/730 and the odd days(weekends) 9/930, my writing is messy, sorry, and my scanner didnt scan it dark and i have no clue how to. its a new scanner we just purchased.

Well, men have good intentions, but they arent the brightest.

- i mean that in the KINDEST way
Its all fine and dandy to say "let it happen" but if there are only three days a month where pregnancy is REALLY likely, and we miss it because we dont know when that is, then THAT is a bigger stress.
Taking charge of our fertility can reduce stress because at least we learn what is going on with our bodies.
Your writing is fine and i could read it no problem

lol on men..i agree. I love him dearly, and I agree, we only have a few day window of when it could actually happen. He will let me do it tho, if it makes me happy..He just doesnt want me to start scheduling *baby dancing* days/nights and making it a chore for him. Which I totally understand, But if I do this for now and see my temps, then perhaps we can get a feel of when the best times of the month are if one month didnt work.

Thanks on my writing...

lol

Wow i haven't gotten any reactions like that from anyone, everyone was really supportive when they found out i was gonna have it reversed. I think the circumstances that made have them clamped to begin with were understandable, when i had it done the only one to say anything negative was my mother-in-law. I remember crying so hard going into the operating room when they were going to put the clamps on and i have regreted it ever since but sometimes fear over rides every other emotion and at the time i couldn't bare buring another child. But with modern med things have changed and they give me real good odds now, and needless to say my mother in law is thrilled...lol My DH threatens to throw the dam thermomitor out the window everyday, His thought is it'll happen when its supposed to so i just tell him i have youth on my side and you don't so giving it alittle extra push won't hurt cuz he's almost 10 yrs older and that shuts him up
