Best way to check if I'm O'ing

[WorriedInCA]

I'm starting Met. tomorrow. I'm hoping I dont get all these bad side effects others have.

What is the easiest way to check if Im O? I'm TTC and am now trying new meds.
I'm praying it works.

Well, for starters you could take your waking temp every morning and look for temp shifts. You could also check your cervical mucus and position. And lastly you could buy OPKs but they sometimes don't work for cysters. If you have any questions about what indecates Oing....ask anyway...

I am actually trying the CM method now, temping wasnt easy for me. Jayden would get up and run a muck which would jolt me out of bed before i could do it. Hey hes 4 so it is only acceptable another 2 years!! LOL, but like today I am on CD9 and my cm is clearing up and getting stretchier, so I figure a day or two more it should be good, although there is very little of it. I hope its fine though.........

Jack is 6 and he still comes in our room and runs around first thing in the morning....I sick him on DH and while they go make breakfast..I get to temp.

I will start taking my temp each morning and see how that goes.
How do you keep track of that? Is there a somewhere I can create a chart?
Or should I just write it down?
Thanks

www.fertilityfriend.com is a wonderful website for keeping everything organized...That's what I use and my RE loves it because I can list all my symptoms and everyhting on the chart....

Go to fertilityfriend.com the account is free and it graphs the results for you. I have a hubby who works 3rd shift so he doesnt get home for like an hour after jayden wakes!!! I wish he were home earlier. That also makes it harder when ttc, is he works 3rd shift, so he goes to bed at 3 pm and gets up at 10:30 pm and leaves. So i usually fall asleep between then so no boogy time

vtmommy: DH works weird hours too...he works from 5pm to 2am and we usually go to sleep at 4am then get up with Jack at 9am....so we BD at like 3am or so...Definately not my best or most sensual time of the day LOL....But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do....
