Are any of you charting pushers?

Have you noticed that since you started charting or watching your cycle more closely that you enourage other people to chart as well?

Have you ever taken a break from charting? Why?

I am definitely a charting pusher. I can't help it. I watch girls, especially the ones with longer or irregular cycles, getting so frustrated and I just want to help them. I have also watched a lot of girls get pregnant their first cycle charting so I think it makes a difference.

I have taken a break from charting before just to get a mental break from ttc. I am on a charting break right now because I am being monitored and just wanted to take a break from it.

I am the same way now I didnt start charting until just a few months ago and now I am in deep! I seriously dont know how i went so long without this feeling of total body awareness. its so empowering to me to be able to sense or tell when I am ovulating because of the SCIENCE behind it. I am a Christian..and i think it is amazing that God has given us that science!

So now on the TTC board, when I see someone struggling I always give them the speel about how awesome it was for me to be able to see a temp jump when I ovulate and to see how the EWCM that I had is really ACTUALLY corresponding to the temps! Its just so neat to see how amazing our bodies are!

I also think it helps me relax a little bit...I am not so worried that my body is broken...because i can SEE that it is working the way it is supposed to. And if it wasnt...I would be able to PRINT the chart and take it as proof to my Dr. What could be better? lol

Chart pusher here too!

I started charting after my first pg, which ended in a M/C. For me.. I NEEDED to know what was going on and to get pg again as soon as possible. Thankfully I got pg with Kaeden the first month we were able to try again. I took a break after he was born, then when we decided to have our next child I started charting again. We were able to get pg after about 3 months of charting. Took a break again after the twins were born.. and now that we are trying again I'm charting. :-)
