Hi! I used this method when I conceived my son :) This is really effective if you chart faithfully throughout your cycle, and it may take a couple of months to pinpoint when you ovulate, but you will see a pattern if you ovulate at the same time every month. First, buy a bbt thermometer (they are the thermometers that go to the hundredth rather than the tenth mark e.x. 98.14 rather than 98.1). Then take you temperature every morning before getting out of bed. I kept my thermometer right on my bedside table, because any movements you make before taking your temperature may increase it, even if only by a couple hundredths of a degree. Then plot each temperature on your profile on your profile, or even graph paper. The only downside to this method is that it tells you when you've already ovulated, not when you are going to, however, once you're able to track your cycle, you'll know when O is coming. I hope this helps, let me know it wasn't very clear. **baby dust**
