My DH knows all about my charting and is both supportive and involved. He asks what my temp is each day and knows what it should be at what times of my cycle and everything... He's awesome!

DH knows I'm charting - but he doesn't have a clue what any of it means. He is supportive of it, and always asking if I took my temperature and if it's time to make a baby yet. LOL

D thought I was a little strange at first and didn't really understand the whole concept.

Since changing my BC method, he's really started to ask a lot of questions about how it works, how I know when I am ovulating, and what fertile days I have. I'm glad he has really started to be curious about it!

Oh yeah. We've learned 3 different types of charting for 3 different types of NFP in the last 9 years. He attended all the classes too. They all encouraged the husband to record the information on the chart every day so he always knows where things are at, so DH has done that in the past. .

I messed up the title of this thread, oops!

My DH knows I'm charting and he asks if I took the temps in the morning, just in case I forgot. In the beginning he thought that we should just "do it" and not worry about charting, but now he understands that since my cycles are irregular, it's better with charting.

DH knows I'm charting but he's clueless about the process. He's supportive about it though. He didn't bat an eye when I bought 4 thermometers in a week until i finally found one I was comfortable with.

Dh always encouraged my charting. He wanted to get pregnant fast, and wanted to use every advantage possible. He always knew where i was in my cycle lol. Apparentley they taught basic charting at his highschool? (he went to school in a low income area where all the girls were getting pregnant)
I was glad for that, because he didn't look at me sidewise when we started trying. Having charts was great when we were getting ready to see the RE.

My DH is semi-involved. He gets the basic concept and wants to look at my chart now and again.

We started charting for NFP, we took a class together, so he knows the very basics. It has been 10 years though, so I am sure he forgets a lot by now. He is supportive of it though.

Since I just bought my thermometer, DH doesn't really know much about charting (neither do I) but he's eager to learn
