Which one is more reliable FF or Countdown to pregnancy?

[LancyLass]

I use both and I like FF better, but I think neither of them are as good as an old Excel spreadsheet. LOL.

I am just feeling curious now, I am finding charting fascinating!

CTP is prettier.

I do FF and my own Excel spreadsheet - and I make it all pretty with different shades of green for different types of CM and different colours for AF and BD etc. It makes me happy

How do you calculate your coverline..or do you just grab it from FF? So far, I've found the recommendation to take average of previous 6 data points then add .1 That's cute unless you have an erratic FP (which is my case).

SS...That's what I do...

Ok I tried again, and if it does not work then I give up! It shows that CTP it is not meant for me

Yeah, having two charts is drivng me loopy already lol, It does not take much to drive insane though, I have an overactive brain I think LOL always think to much about things and try to find every single explanation to everything... not good!

Yes, I know my cycles quite well they are between 29 and 30 days long, pretty regular in the last couple of years. I go with FF to be honest, just becaus my temps keep rising and again, I like thinking positive. It has given me the Xhairs

Don´t think I will use CTP again, I quite like the way FF displays the information, it is much easier to read/interpret.

Sus listen i've started getting all insane with this temping lark ask dmom she must be sick of me now asking her every question under the sun but thanks dmom

Jodes, Dmom must be fed up of my questions as well lol and also me being unable to link my charts here

 

[dachsundmom]

[Indigo77]

Just don't ask her to boil water or else you'll have a bunch of firemen in your kitchen...

Oh, wait!

So far I've just copied it from FF. So really there's no point in doing my own spreadsheet apart from having it looking pretty!!
Although I was going to ask dachsundmom how she calculates it as it sounds like she's the Excel expert...
I had heard similar to you but I thought it was previous 3 data points (although I may have remembered that wrong). Plus not sure about what unit to add as I do it in Celsius.

Yeah, I must have looked like a right lunatic lol

There is every one, with their posh cocktails and me carrying this watermelon filled with vodka and ICE lol. I had help drinking the contents, but I have to say that I even went to the lenghts of scraping all the flesh of the watermelon and eating it all

It was yummy!!

Oh dear, had a bad day, feeling stupidly emotional with terrible mood swings. Stupid PMS!!!!! I am not even sleeping, get this silly nerves and stress at night that won´t let me sleep, like every month before AF annoying.

Lol Just fancied a rant! there we are I had it, and a watermelon soaked in vodka as well
