I am sure this has been discussed many times before, but what do you guys to do keep track of your fertile times etc? I pay attention to cervial mucus, and have started using an ovulation predictor kit. I have considered temping, but as I do shift work it seems awkward. Plus... it just seems so much work.

all I did was keep track of my cycles for a few months before i was ready to TTC and then I just used pregnancy planner on the Home page of BBU and I concieved the 2nd month I activly tried.

I think I was just lucky though.

I always though the predicotr thingies were alot of work for something that should be so natural.

I track my cycle and use the planner on the site. Since I'm not always regular though we've just gone to having sex every other day, minimum, so that we cover all the possible days we can.

I used ovulation predictor kits when I was seeing a fertility doctor and really 2 of 3 of my actual live births (has three miscarriages) were surprises. I only treid for three months for the one we planned.

I started off using no method and just guessing from what fertility friend said. Then I started using OPK's and now I'm using OPK's, checking temps, and checking CM. I am highly irregular so I've found that the temps has really made it easier to figure out what's happening.
