? about charting

[mandee09]

What is the best way to chart? I have set my alarm clock to take temp at 630 every morning. But i have other children and it seems like my 3 yr old wants to get in the bed with me all hours of the night. This mornign he decided to at 4 am. How do I temp with another child? Should I set my alarm for 4 am? or give up on the idea of charting?

Thanks

Hi,
I don't recommend charting. It's often stressful and inaccurate. I suggest an LH test kit instead, my favorite being OvuQuick.

Hope this helps,

Yes, that's what it is - An ovulation test.

I have the clearblue easy fertility monitor and I start getting high fertility on day 8 and it stays that way till about day 20. I never peak. It is so confusing. I dont ovulate on my own therefore is there a point?

[Scott Roseff MD]

No, if you don't ovulate on your own there's no point. Your RE needs to do testing to find out WHY you don't ovulate on your own, make a proper diagnosis, and then treat you according to those findings to help you become pregnant.
