I found mymonthly to be good at predicting my AF as well... HOWEVER, it does not "calculate" your ov for you. (Hence it is relying on you to decide what your luteal phase length is and that can be hard without temps).

This is one feature that FF has a huge advantage over Mymonthly. You don't need temps for FF to calculate your ov date. It will take into account your CM and any opk results you get and may do a better job at calculating what day your ov actually is. Not sure if you have tried it or not.

I was using both for awhile but once I started temping, it only took a couple weeks and I was totally converted to FF.

p.s. and by using FF I discovered I was ov'ing earlier that I thought... and of course found out the reason why my AF had changed so much since I got a job...travel was delaying my ov which I had no idea it did. This month will be the first time FF will have to deal with my travel interrupting things so we will see how good a job it does...

I was using FF, but it isn't calculating my O date.....and I am not sure why. I have 7 cycles in there. Maybe I have to make sure I update my CM and CP everyday?? I did like it, maybe I will give it another shot.

I don't bother with CP on FF but it still does my ov date....
Or maybe that wast just cycle 1 while I was an honorary subscriber...

Try changing the ovulation detection method to any of the other three... maybe it only works if you have used an opk and then of course choose opk method...hmmm

 

[Conswayla M]

Well I don't pay for it.....do you have to be a paid subscriber in order for it to work properly?

 

[claire99991]

do you have to pay for FF?? I have decided i have wasted to much money on TTC! the amount i have spent on tests (opk and preg) month after month preeseed vitamins etc etc i could have nearly gone on holiday haha so this month girlies im going au natural! no temping no opk tests no preeseed no ealry preg tests (yes really!!) no cm checking no cp checking just simple on fertile days, carnt be bothered with anything else anymore lol

 

[claire99991]

oh i also got a pychic reading done what cost me money and they told me i would have a boy in october conceived on my last cycle.... more money wasted lol

 

[snugglebot]

There are features you have to pay for... and the analysis is one of them I am pretty sure.

For me it saves me the cost of poas by telling me when to expect AF and tracking my temp... but obviously if you rely on opk's then FF will only add to your costs because you still need to POAS mid cycle, although it may help you cut down on the poas end cycle by telling you what dpo you are on... but you ladies are pretty clear on that anyways.

So I guess it isn't a great match unless you temp...

I noticed that there were some things you had to pay for. Most sites like that, you have to pay to upgarde and I refuse. I didn't buy any hpt's and I am not going to. I have a doc appointment on March 12, which is 5 days after AF is due, and if she isn't here by then, I will just get a test done there. My doctors is so close to my work....and it usually only takes a day to get in, so I will for now on....resort to that. No more from hpt's! And your right Claire, it costs so much doing this that all the money you spend could have been used on the new baby! Like cribs are $$$$.....start socking the money you would have spent on ttc away and save up for babes.

 

[snugglebot]

Excellent plan conswayla! Actually it almost has a tone of PMA to it...going to the DR to get a blood test because AF will be late by then and no more BFNs!)

[Conswayla M]

Welcome bushbaby, goodluck on this cycle, what day of your cycle are you on?

Oh...ff decided to give me a O date of "Not Detected" and it wont forecast my fertile days or anything.....I quit FF!!

 

[claire99991]

Glad someone else feels the same! I like my monthly cycles, because it is easier....just enter AF day and it tells you when you are fertile, when your not and when AF is due!!

Okay....without checking in there I had a ton of EWCM on the tp!! time!!

 

[claire99991]
