Hehe, I actually used a combination of Fertility Friend (the free version--I never paid to upgrade to the fancier features), a freebie charting program for my palm pilot, and pencil and paper . Call me obsessive I had a small spiral notebook and pen (one of those cute ones with a built in light) next to my bed with the BBT thermometer.=20 When my alarm first went off, I'd stick the thermometer in my mouth and doze until it beeped. Then I'd use the light on my pen to check the temp, and write it down on the notebook (I also marked in the notebook when DH and I would BD). At some point that morning (generally in a quick break at work) I'd enter the temp into my PDA, along with whatever CM and cervical position I had. The PDA version would draw a basic chart for me and attempt to predict ovulation (after it had a couple of months of data), but didn't have as many features as fertility friend. So a couple of times a week, I'd take my PDA and enter all the data into fertility friend so I could see the whole chart at once, and poke around at the discussion groups and other things on their site. That's probably way more work than anyone else would bother with, but I did mention the obsessive thing right? --Elit #1 due 9/20/2004 |

The freebie program is called "NFP" and I think I downloaded it from Palm's own website (they have a spot for freeware and shareware). It is set up to let you chart for getting pregnant or avoiding pregnancy. Again, it's not as fancy as Fertility Friend, but it does a pretty good job for such a small screen. Plus, it was nice that I could take it with me to the doctor's office in case he needed to see the charts (he didn't--I wasn't doing any infertility treatments or anything, so he just took my word for my ovulation date). It was also an interesting distraction if I felt like avoiding work for a few minutes--turn it on, and bring up the charts and start looking for patterns and daydreaming about babies... --Elit #1 due 9/20/2004 |

I know where you are coming from I am the same way! I'm glad to see that you are due in September. The charting must have worked Shannon It certainly helped I only took one hpt that came out negative, and I actually had light brown spotting around 8dpo (which could have been implantation spotting--that cycle I actually got AF a little early also, so i half suspect that it was an exceedingly early m/c). The cycle we succeeded, I was quite content to wait till I was officially "late" to test since I was already 90% sure that I was pg--had a nice tri-phasic chart, sore b**bs, slightly off-feeling tummy, etc (plus I knew that we BD on both O day and 2 days before when I had my most fertile CM, so chances were high). It was also nice to read about how to chart to avoid pregnancy. I don't plan to use that info as a sole source of BC for any length of time, but DH and I have the option in case I don't or can't go back on BCP's (or something similar) at some point. Good luck with your TTC! I hope it goes well and quickly for you! --Elit. #1 due 9/20/2004 |

I really don't need to have word docs on my palm - I'm a memo pad girl - and I still haven't learned Excel so I wouldn't use that part at all. I like NFP. It's really really easy and it makes nice charts and it's all pre-configured.
