Do you feel more in tune with yourself now that you are charting?

Do you remember to temp at the same time every day and if not do you use a temp corrector?

Do you temp during AF?

Does your DH keep up with your cycle?

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion?

1. Yes!! I feel like I have learned a lot that I never knew about my body before charting.
2. I temp usually within an hour span at the most. On weekends is when I temp within that hour. Usually I'm good about it though. No, I have never used a corrector.
3. No, I give it a rest.
4. Not really. He may know when it's getting close for me to start AF.
5. Everything! I guess just sticking the therm. in my mouth and waiting for it to peep..

Do you feel more in tune with yourself now that you are charting? Yes, I knew nothing about charting a few months ago

Do you temp during AF? Yes

Does your DH keep up with your cycle? No

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion? Taking temps every morning isn't really that hard

<span style="color:#0000FF">Do you feel more in tune with yourself now that you are charting? Definitely! There are still times when my body likes to try and trick me, but I definitely feel like I know more about what's going on now.

Do you remember to temp at the same time every day and if not do you use a temp corrector? Generally I remember to temp at the same time. If I don't I just enter the temp and the time it was taken. I don't use correctors.

Do you temp during AF? Yes, I do. If I switch to vaginal temping I would just take those days off though.

Does your DH keep up with your cycle? Yeah, mine does. In fact, before I started temping, I used to joke and say he knew more about my body than I did. lol

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion?Actually taking the temp seems to be the easy part. Remembering to write it down and interpreting the chart is where it gets a little tricky sometimes!

Do you feel more in tune with yourself now that you are charting? Not really I thought I knew my body before but it turns out I really had no idea what was happening when. Opk's have led me to belive in the past that I Oed on day 10-12. Last month was CD 16. Looks like this month will follow that pattern. Maybe in time with charting I will feel in tune, but right now I feel like I am on a roller coaster.

Do you remember to temp at the same time every day and if not do you use a temp corrector? This month I have been good and temped at the same time when possible. I have never used a temp corrector.

Do you temp during AF? Yes

Does your DH keep up with your cycle? Yeah he is always asking what my temps did. I just showed him the link to my chart so he can look it up when he wants...LOL

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion? It's easy to take temps in the morning.

Do you feel more in tune with yourself now that you are charting? Absolutely, it's amazing to me!

Do you remember to temp at the same time every day and if not do you use a temp corrector? I remember to do it at the same time everyday because I set my alarm.

Do you temp during AF? I have never thought of it, just started charting at the beginning of this cycle and when I had AF I did have a thermometer so I couldn't temp. But, I think I actually will the next time.

Does your DH keep up with your cycle? Not really so far. I tell him, but I'm not sure if he really listens.

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion? Temping is easiest to me too because it's factual.

Yes and no... I felt pretty sure of when I was O'ing before I started charting... now it's just that at moments I feel like a science expirement.

Do you remember to temp at the same time every day and if not do you use a temp corrector?
I try. LOL I rarely bother with the temp corrector, as screwy as my sleep cycles are I think it might make my temps look worse if I did.

Do you temp during AF?
Yes

Does your DH keep up with your cycle?
Yup

What is the easiest thing about charting in your opinion?
sticking the thermometer in my mouth LOL
