| Hi Ladies, I am just wondering whether anyone is paying the VIP membership versus the basic free one and what one is better to use. |

I used to pay for it and it's quite useful with the tips etc and I liked the extras like the overlays and stuff like that. Trying to hold out and stick to the basic for now as I probably don't need it - but it's nice to have ;) if you're going to get it I'd wait till you get offered the discounted version - which is pretty often!! ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Hi Chelle, thanks for that, I see at the moment they have a discount so I might do it, I've been using a excel spreadsheet which isn't as good and I thought a good idea to get others perspective on my charts etc, so might go for it. Thanks

| I am also a VIP but not thinking of renewing it as it is adding up and think that I can do without all the extras. I think that it is largely up to how an experienced charter you are. |

I've been charting for quite some time now but must admit for all that time I've used the VIP on FF. I like the DPO count it provides and the chart overlay and I see now as part of the VIP they also do a "Early Pregnancy Signs" graph/calculator which measures your marked signs/symptom against all those in their chart gallery - I'm sitting at 41% today  . I was also able to put my membership on hold when I had my break at the end of last year... so as not to waste my money.
I don't mind paying what equates to about NZ$25 every 90 days as I don't spend anything on OPKs or any else each month (well, ok... maybe the odd HPT!  )------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I have VIP now - for the extra features it provides I like it. When my current 90 days runs out I will renew (if I don't have a BFP by then) because I like the DPO counter, and everything else.
Angie - the Early Pregnancy Signs is quite cool aye!! I'm at 59% at the moment, although I think a lot of it is from the nausea/cramps that I get before AF anyway

I think that's kind of confirmed it, I'll do the VIP, as I've been doing that spreadsheet thing I havn't been recording CM so have just started to record. I note that on my chart it say's I ovulated on Day 17 which is what I thought using excel sheet with temps etc. I wonder if FF put that day because it was the only day I put in EW. Who would have ever thought getting pregnant was not as easy as just having BD.

Not necessarily, I put in EW CM and still don't get my crosshairs (dammit LOL). There is a charting thread if you want to join that, a whole bunch of us support each other with charting

I had VIP and loved it! I really liked all the features it gives you. Now I have it on hold as I dont need it ------------- Our Angel July 08  Gone but not forgotten

I used to have the free FF membership when I first started charting and it was great, I fell pg within about 4 months but after I m/c that bubba ( I think it's worth it, esp if you can get a membership 'on sale' and/or you've been ttc for a while as it gives you just that little bit more info. Minik8e- that's funny you're sitting on 59%, they'd only kind of introduced that a month or so before I got my BFP and when I fell pg I was sitting on 51%! lol -------------   http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

), but it did mean I could use the pg tracker part...although TBH I didn't much. Posted By: minik8e

Hehehe - it's gone up to 65% now but I really don't think I am!!! Will find out Wednesday, when AF is due I guess

Best of luck Minik8e, and emmecat really awesome that you are pregnant again (and Rianna08 best Christmas pressie ever!!!) I cannot imagine what it would be like to MC and hopefully it won't happen. I turned 37 in October and have been with my man for a year, I have always wanted children but have wanted to find my 'one' and I finally did! So I already have a lot to be thankful for, a very loving man - yeah!!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hehe, that's a nice percentage jump Kate... mine's crept up to 43% today, but that's based soley on my horrid gassiness! And anyways, I'm only 7dpo so far to early to tell, so I'm not really putting any stead by it  ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I have VIP, and one of the best things I think is their message board, and being able to ask the FF Guides questions about your chart. They're really knowledgeable. ------------- http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/" rel="nofollow">
