The temps are pretty important...they actually confirm ovulation and let you see how well your luteal phase is going and even indicates an implantation dip upon conception many times. beebee....that may be why FF changed your ovulation day because it determines ovulation based on 3 or more temps above your baseline after a considerable dip from baseline or when you show a +on your OPKs or monitor, or when you record EWCM. I like it because you can record everything from CM, OPKS, tests, b/w, symptoms, etc. I went ahead and paid a onetime fee for membership because it also does updates on pregnancy as well. It has a lot of neat information on there.

Hi beebeekinsers . I do use fertility friend also but on webmd they also have a ovulation calender in which you only have to register and don't have to pay anything. I fell in love with it because it offers you a lot of info also. So go to webmd.com and on the search bar type ovulation and a ovulation search will come up. The only thing is I don't know if you can put your temps but I really don't think that's important.Take a look and let me know.

Hi! I want to be added to the list! I am 37, had TR on 7/24/08, I am on cycle day 30, and 8 DPO.
I can't wait to start seeing BFP's on our list here!!!! Anyone else using fertility friend? I am for now, but I don't know if I can continue to use it without paying later on. It's got some pretty cool features, but I think it's wrong on my O day? It thinks I O'd on the 7th, but I really think it was the 10th.

Thanks ladies again for your post. I will def be around here all the time---yall cant get rid of me that easy LOL!
Tonya just wondering this cycle length is that normal for you or are you over. I know my cycles run anywhere from 26-34 days, Dr. M said with the way I was describing my cycles to him sounded like I wasnt ovulating but then in my results email he sent me he said my right ovary looked ovulatory. Anyways just wondering if AF was overdue and if so by how many days---sure hope you get a BFP and soon the suspense is driving me crazy LOL. I have no patience at all but I guess thats why the Lord had me schedule in Feb for a surgery in Aug and having a surgery in Aug and not TTC until a couple of years later or so he is trying to teach me patience because I have zilch in that department.
Hope you all have a great friday and an awesome weekend!!!!!!
BABY DUST TO ALL-BABY DUST TO ALL-BABY DUST TO ALL!!!!!!!!

Jenn, I am extra happy that you and Dh found way to decide together on what need to be done to make your lives better. Realistically, " I believe if we as post TR patients withdrew ourselves from TTC and just let it happy. Our out comes will be great. I say this because it was given to me by my mom who is very spiritual and wise. She mention to me on Tuesday when my AF showed her horrible face how to be blessed that I have AF and that I was able to leave NC with hope of having another baby someday. She's right, I cried at work (my first day back)because AF showed I was so optimistic that my husband and I was one of the lucky ones. AF came on time , hung around during TR, left on time, after all the discomfort I had I was able to TTC and DH time was perfect given he work nights we tried on the highest day of o'ing.
Nevertheless, she advised me to take my mind off of TTC, have fun with my husband the days AF (mugly) face isn't around. If not the stress in it self just may block the process.
So, Jenn I am with you !!!!! Happy for you and I still send all the baby dust in the world to all of you and me too.

Thank you ladies so much for responding to my post. Yeah I think for a 25 year old I do have my act together. I get up early every morning gets my kids ready feed them take my son to my aunts and head off to work. I am super super busy but I love my life. My dh is so wonderful and loves his family very much, he works so hard for us to have what we have. I appreciate him and love him dearly. I look around sometimes at my people my age and I think man they dont have any reponsiblities, no cares in the world they are living life to the max and then I think about my life and I think boy they are sure missing out. I got two beautiful boys, an awesome husband who was my high school sweetheart, a beautiful house in a safe and nice subdivision and I just think man how lucky am I!!! God has blessed our family beyond measure and I cant thank him enough! I love you all and I hope you all have a great day. Jennifer

Jennifer, You have a great head on your shoulders for a 25 year old...very mature and selfless thinking and putting the Lord first makes all the difference. Also, letting dh lead the way and respecting him and in return letting him love his wife with all his heart which it sounds like he has a very level head and holds his family very near and dear. You two will reap the benefits of surrendering to God's will and like I've said before, you really do have your age in your favor. Many of us are 10-15-20 years your senior and are unable to wait due to fertility. Your post was very mature and I respect that example.

Jennifer, I am glad you have come to peace with your decision. I am sure when you decide it is the right time, it will happen quickly because you have learned to prioritize your life. Congrats on your TR and healthy recovery! We look forward to seeing you on here and hope you chime back in when you are ready to TTC! Take care!

Hey ladies...Hope your all having a great Thursday!
Thank you all so much for everyone who responded to my post a couple of days ago! For the lady who asked yes I do work full time and out of the home but luckily for me its for my dads company so I bring my oldest son along with me everyday to work, we have a playroom with a bunch of toys and a tv so he hangs out in there and I work, my great aunt watches my 2 soon to be 3 year old she only charges me $50 bucks a week so thats a blessing especially considering how much daycare expenses are now my 3 fixing to be 4 year old made it into Pre-K this year which starts the week of Sept 2 so when that happens I will be bringing my other son to work with me and I will save that extra $200 bucks a month. Well after my dh and I had a long talk last night...we have decided to put off the TTC it will be hard but I think it is for the best, we have 100% submitted ourselves to God's will so if it be that I do get a BFP Praise and Glory be to God and what a blessing that would be! So again we are not actively going to try and get pregnant but just have Faith and Wait upon the Lord. I got to thinking after our conversation the other night my first son was born Aug 27, 2004 and on Feb 17, 2005 I found out I was pregnant again, it by no means was planned by us to happen that way and to be honest I was not happy at first about it but as always the Lord took care of us and now I cant imagine my life without my little Joshua and so I know in the meantime we are going to be trying to get some debt off of us and we seriously need a new car my ole clunker wont make it much more so we are just going to work on getting everything in order so when we are blessed with another baby we can focus soley on him or her and not have to worry about anything. It will be hard not wanting to TTC but all in all I know in my heart it is the right thing to do! We have given it all over to God and placed it in his hands, so I know that whatever happens will be meant to be and I know that he will never leave us he is always by our side and so that gives me peace and comfort knowing that sometimes our plan doesn't fall into his plan but for some reason the end result is always by far uncomparable to the result we would have gotten had we followed our plan instead of God's. I dont mean to rattle on and on but I just wanted to stop by and just share our thoughts and feeling as of this point right now in our lives! I will still remain an active part of this board and I sincerely hope each one of you get your BFP and in the meantime my dh and I will just do alot of practing...LOL!
