Creation of the Best Fertility Awareness Tool - and sharing it with you.

Maybe it is a bit bold of me to call my own creation the best fertility awareness tool but hear me out and then decide for yourself.



Open journal with a black pen on a wooden table outdoors. Blurred grass in the background, autumn leaf nearby. Calm and reflective mood.

I've tracked my cycle for many years. For many reasons.

And I've used all the available methods for doing so.


I experimented with the different ways of recording observations and reflections from using an app (I tried several), to a free hand journal, and a typical paper chart.


I used fertility awareness and cycle tracking for:


  1. Healing my hormones (crippling PMS)

  2. General health feedback and improvement

  3. Prevention of pregnancy

  4. Living in sync with my cycle and creating ease in my life and work

  5. Trying to conceive and conceiving

  6. Recovery from miscarriages

  7. Throughout pregnancy

    1. Including using it to know I was pregnant without a pregnancy test (I never took a pregnancy test with Elba. My first test of any kind was at 32 weeks pregnant).

  8. Post-partum recovery monitoring

  9. Preventing pregnancy postpartum

  10. Preconception


Through all of this I found that what served me the most was physically writing down my observations and reflections. When I used an app, which I did for 1.5 years when I started out, I found I ticked boxes but I didn't truly reflect on the information. I then moved to a free hand journal - I used this for many years and it served me well. I spent time reflecting and recording my observations. But then with being a mom to a toddler I decided I want something with the freedom and intention of a free hand journal, but the visuals of paper charts and apps. I tried a typical paper chart for several cycles and appreciated the visual, but found it lacked space for proper reflection recording and cycle comparisons. This, plus people asking me for my journal and chart led to the creation of my Fertility Awareness Journal & Chart.


I'm so happy I get to share with you my Fertility Awareness Journal & Chart in digital and paperback form.


You can purchase the physical journal on Amazon. It is available in most countries. Search "Fertility Awareness Journal & Charts by Carmen" and it should come up.


If you are in Canada - you can contact me to purchase it directly from me (coming soon to my website) or you can order it from Amazon.ca.






Text on a pink textured background reads "FERTILITY AWARENESS JOURNAL & CHARTS" followed by "by Carmen Fourie".


There is a Fahrenheit and a Celsius version available.

I hope this gives you a better understanding of how my Fertility Awareness Journal & Charts can support your journey.


Whether you're just starting or have been tracking for years, having a system that works for you makes all the difference.
