VEP Symptom Tracker = Very Early Pregnancy Symptom Tracker

In a nutshell: A free, unique online tool that enables women who are trying to conceive to monitor, record, compare and share their very early symptoms each day from ovulation to testing. This tool also enables members to share their results in real-time with other women. Each successful cycle recorded by our members is incorporated into the overall statistics & graphs which in turn helps someone else to better understand their own symptoms.

How does it work?

1. Create a FREE account
2. Enter your date of ovulation
3. Log in each day and record the signs and symptoms you experience (there is a list of over 60 symptoms to choose from!)
4. Enter your pregnancy test results as you go

Now the fun part!
For each day past ovulation that you have symptoms recorded you can then compare the ones you experience with all of our members (it will give you the percentages of how many pregnant women had the same symptoms as you! Great to obsess over!)

And once you have multiple cycles recorded you will be able to compare each day past ovulation to your previous cycles. This is a great way to uncover patterns in your symptoms and to discover any new and promising symptoms!

Once you enter a positive pregnancy test (Yipee!) your symptom data is then incorporated into the graphs (anonymously of course) and will be available to other women searching for answers about the symptoms they are experiencing during their two week wait! Women helping women through the “trying to conceive journey”.

It definitely is a helpful companion during the anticipation of the “two week wait”!
