girl stuff: mon.thly.info
Never in my life had I considered tracking my period, until this year in March when I got kind of interested in knowing when it was going to happen next and whereabouts in my pms cycle I was. I have a calendar in my diary, provided kindly by Opzij magazine, (a feminist magazine here in Holland) which allows you to track and predict your menses based on when the last one started.
It gets better than that (and there is a reason I'm telling you this). Today I found, via browsing, a website called Mon.thly.info which sends you an email telling you when you'll be getting your period based on the dates you've entered in previously. I was able to enter five months of data and now the calendar will give me interesting details like which day and phase of my cycle I'm in, like this.
Today apparently I am on day 16, having ovulated on Wednesday and my cycle averages 28.2 days. If I'd wanted to make babies yesterday was do-it-day.
Imagine how useful this will be for planning when to get pregnant, for when you hit the menopause? Or when not to book your holidays? And aren't people just so clever sometimes?
Now someone needs to make a PMS calendar based on the same information except instead of your own email you enter in your boyfriend/boss/co-worker's emails and they get an email that week saying 'Beware of the bitch!'

Oh man, I am so seriously going to figure out a way to get this info sent to my husband. Every month, he is surprised, "What? You have PMS?" "What? You have your period." I tell him it comes every month -- about every 29 -30 days. And every month, he forgets. Sometimes, I feel like I should wear a sign, "I have PMS! Leave me alone!!" But an email reminder would probably work better.
That is AWESOME! Now I can track more easily the goings-on on my insides! Thank you for finding and sharing that with me. It's totally helpful for knowing when to be 'cautious' of the baby makin' time. ;)
