Ok so with us not officially starting for a couple months we are starting on vitamins and I figured I'd start charting so that way I'll have it down when we do. So my question is what vitamins would you recommend...dr suggested multi vitamins with DHA and folic acid...for both. Well for womens vitamins its easy enough i can buy prenatals, but for his I can't find any with DHA in them, pharmacy suggested fish oil because it has the DHA in it and then taking the multi vitamin also. And on to charting....Where can I find a Basal Theremother? And is there an easy method to charting?

The fish oil is a good start for him. A friend of mine who is a vitamin expert also had Kevin taking a Maca supplement.

As for the BBT thermometer, you can get it at any drugstore. I got mine from Target for about $6. Just make sure it says Basal thermometer on it.

An easy way to chart for me was to use fertilityfriend.com. The most important part of charting is temping at the same time every morning, right when you wake up before your first morning run to the bathroom. Some people keep notebooks by their bed so they can write down the temp in case they fall back asleep or forget before they can get to their chart.

Good luck!
