Hey u guys are using FF .I am not able to make my chart can anyone help me in this?

How much of folic acid should  I take ??

Hi Rina, I am not sure what your question is.  Are you asking how to join FF and make the chart, or how to add the chart to your signature here on Ingender?

Also you should be taking a minimum of 1200 mg of folic acid per day if you are on the boy diet.

Sorry, I have not used the microscope.  I have only used the Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor (CBEFM) along with the OPK tests to track my fertility.  It works really well for me along with my BBT.

Sorry frnds

I did not put the questions in rt manner

I was asking is there any body tracking the fertility cycle with the help of fertile focus microscope..which uses saliva.

I am using that microscope and I am not able to make out wether I am reading it rt or not .I had my last Af on 27 jan soo I thought and was hoping to get a smiley on Clear blue OPK today but is not that .Nor the microscope says fertile.Soo i thought to ask if there is anyone using that and can help me in that.

Second qs was that Is that the BBT charting is better than that microscope.If yes .Than how do u make a chart??And if u put ur BBT data every morng by taking TEmp every morng how do u come to know when u are ovulating Cos is says that the temp rises after O ..So how would u know u are abt to O. Or it is  like this that u chart for initially 5-5 mths to know the tiem of ovulation and than plan ?? I mean how does that chart work??

hi girls, ive been having af cramps for last few days, feels like af any min then goes away, pee stinky and very hungry, think im being too hopeful but i cant help but hope ill get a bfp, how are you all doing?

AF like cramps can be related to pregnancy. Your temps look good and I don;t think you could get AF so early. Your other symptoms like backache, bloated, frequent urination are promising. FX for your BFP. Hope you get it this month.

Onedream, Those tips are great thank you! I thought I had my plan sorted but thats really helped alot.

It was my pleasure. Your cm pH is too good and I say don't wait go for it. Season is more powerful than full moon. Here is the link from gender swaying forum, http://www.ingender.com/cs/forums/t/140593.aspx. You must have read this. And you have get +ions from electronics too so don't panic about new moon. 

youngmoon:

what worries me is that right after im back from my vacation, ill be O'ing , around CD18-19.. and I realy hv to watch my diet..

Get tips from Sigma. She was on vacation and followd diet and took her drinks and supplements. Sigma you can write a thread, how to stick to diet on vacation. Just kidding

Onedream:  Hi Sweetie and good luck. I am sending positive vibes that you had a successful sway.

Thanks FG, I really need it. Your all posts are full of good vibes. How are you doing hun? Have you got your AF? When are starting ttc? Praying for you to get quick BFP with sticky sticky sticky blue bean.

overthewind:

Do you mind if i write here what i eat and drink daily for motivation.

Wow...that's a great idea. It will help to new comers too who keep thinking what to eat.

Take 1200mcg or more FA.

DH should start diet and supplements with you 6 weeks before attempt. He can drink BSD, COT, lemon water also.

punkin:

onedream your chart looks great.  I'm sending BFP thoughts!

Thanks Punkin. Good luck for your NT scan. Hope you could take right decision for nub. IMO, you should go for it as peri is experiened. If you can see good nub on screen then you can ask otherwise don't

BBT charting should be accompanied with OPK/Monitor. The difference is OPK/Monitor tell you when will you ovulate while chart tells you when did you ovulate. Chart even tells you about your LP or if you are pregnant by showing high temps after 12DPO. Join FF, buy Basal Boday Thermometer and record first day of AF. You can start anytime by adding temp. You can add other data like cm, cervix pattern, OPK details, BD, medicines you are taking, symptoms etc.

To get better idea you have to chart for 3 cycles. If you have regulat in periods then you will get idea in one month.

 Ovethewind: I'd love to hear what you're eating.  It will keep me motivated to stay on this diet.  After reading the posts, it sounds like I should take more folic acid.  

I'm drinking lemon water with truvia and green tea (1X a day).  I also bought some rice milk but haven't tried it yet.  

 I eat a lot more meat and potatoes now too.  A pretty drastic change for me.  

 Here are some favorites I've found on the diet:  dried apricots, progresso soups, bananas
