I've read from cover to cover Toni Weshler's "Taking Charge of Your Fertility", and I found that helpful in some areas, but I actually gave up charting because it was too difficult with a toddler getting up at strange hours, and the hot weather with no AC in the house.

I suggest calling your doctor and having an appointment, as it is unusual to have 18+ days of high temps and no baby growing.

I wish the best for you!
