I do! Our birth control is my chart so it's really important to us that I keep up with it. Thankfully my cycle is really regular so we never have to question when my fertile/non-fertile period is.
Do you chart if you aren't TTC?
-
Nope! I have an IUD, so I don't bother charting.
-
Loosely, to prevent for now also.
-
I keep track of my period using an app (used to use FF, now trying Ovia after hearing about it here!) but I don't chart other symptoms (like cm) or take my temp or anything. But, I didn't keep track of those when we were ttc either. I like keeping an eye on where I am in my cycle though we use condoms regardless of what part of the month it is
-
My tubes are tied so no need to but I do keep track of my cycle so I know when to expect my period
-
I just stopped BC this cycle and i'm temping/charting to prevent but in anticipation of TTC soonish
-
Nope, I'm too lazy.
-
Yep I did. But the break while pregnant is nice.
-
I've charted my cycle for years just to have an idea of when to expect my period since I don't use hormonal birth control.
-
Yes. We used NFP to prevent for a few years before TTC. I now use Ovia to prevent, but we will switch modes after the New Year
@nana87: do you like it?
-
Nope. I'm on the pill so it isn't necessary.
-
@LovelyPlum: I do, though I don't really need it to do anything fancy! It sends emails each day, which makes it super easy to update when you get your period but is kind of annoying for the rest of the month, haha
-
Just my period. My OB reviews my cycles.
-
Nope. I have an IUD so no need.
-
Yes, but at this point is just cm because I am up to much at night breastfeeding to temp. I am regular and cm is obvious so I use that as BC. Not fool proof but good enough for now. I'll start chatting with temp one I sleep at night and we will try again in the next 6 months.
-
I note the start date of my period on a calendar and notice how long it's been since my last period, just to chuckle at my stupidly irregular cycle. It's really nice to not have to stress out about that now that I'm done having kids. Go on, cycle! Be wonky! No one cares anymore!
-
No, I have an IUD. I'll probably start tracking a year before TTC though, using Ovia. That's what I did last time.
-
I haven't had a period since getting my IUD, so nothing to track!
-
The only tracking I ever did when not TTC was noting the start dates of my periods so I knew when to buy a box of tampons!
Now I'm using Ovia. So far so good two cycles in. I love the notes they put on my app home screen after I put in data. Like I said I was depressed, and it told me it was sorry! lol -
Nope, and I didn't track to get pregnant. I've always been on the pill.
-
loosely on fertility friend. have had thyroid issues in the past (long cycles) so i like to have a reminder to make sure my meds are keeping it in check.
