Fertility Friend is running a promo on Facebook...1 year of VIP membership for $24.95. I've only ever had the free basic membership...those of you that have the VIP, is it worth it? I'm currently chugging along fine on the basic but didn't know if I was missing out on anything super great. I've looked at the comparisons and you seem to get a lot of extras, but in the end, is it really going to help me get pregnant? I'm already charting temps and CM, and doing OPK's.
So what say you?

Absolutely!
The very most useful thing is being able to see your "chart" of specifics on each chart. That way, during the TWW each cycle, you can go back and easily see what you noted the cycle before - helps you know whether you are crazy or not.

I had it for a few months and I don't think it's worth it for me, personally. I have noticed that I get some of the "VIP features" on my iphone app, but not on the website, even though I don't pay for it.

For the length of time it took to get pregnant with my first, it was absolutely worth it. The communities were helpful as well as the additional chart information (these were in the pre-HB days and when WB was still getting the Nesting sections started).
For #2 if it had taken much longer, I would have gone for it again, but ended up not needing it (was literally about to sign up again when I got my BFP).

For the obsessive TTC'er - I definitely love it. I had a free month of VIP for referring someone, and once it was over i missed the extra features, and paid for it immediately. But that was only because i got a taste of it - if i hadn't had that first free month, i don't think i would have ever made the move to VIP in the first place.

Yes!! I love it! Even though we weren't technically TTC when I became pregnant it was FF that helped me know my cycles for months in advance. The app was way to use in those mornings when I wanted to temp then roll back over to sleep and it is a lot more in depth than the basic. I just bought a year to it since we start TtC next month!

I vote no! I think it leads to more symptom spotting and psyching yourself out. Or at least thats what it did to me when I had the free trial

Each time I signed up I ended up pregnant the first month of having it. Lol. Just coincidence I think! But for 25 bucks it's worth a try, right?

I really liked having the VIP membership - I also got it on the deep discount for $24.95. However, if you're the type of person who gets obsessive about data, you might want to avoid it. The 'Pregnancy Signs' feature gives you a WHOLE lot of excellent data...but it's easy to get caught up in all of that.

I decided it was worth it for that 25 dollar price as well, and sure enough I got my BFP about ten days after signing up for VIP. So now I use it for the pregnancy tracker, haha.

I didn't find it any more helpful than the free app. So, I voted no. Save your money.
