As lots of you know cycle number 5 started for me yesterday, so I was thinking of buying a clear blue fertility monitor as my new little ttc addiction for this month!

Seriously tho, is it worth it? I'd get a second hand one off ebay I think, rather than pay for a brand new one.

So should I take the plunge girls - do ya think it will help?

i swear by those things,id been trying for ages with ov sticks etc and no luck. Id make sure we did the deed at the right times or so i thought,then i bought a new cbfm off ebay was 70 quid with sticks and hey presto 1st month of using it im pregnant and didnt bd half as much.Id definetly say go for it an good luck

Now that's exactly the kind of thing I wanted to hear!

Brilliant I'm gonna give in and get one then!

Thanks very much - April BFP here I come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hope it works for you as quick as it worked for me tmi but i made sure id bd on high days then on peak id try to do it twice morn and night,had 2 peak days.Let us know how you get on and a2nd hand one will be fine as you just reset them

I love my cbfm as well!! I bought mine new off ebay too, with sticks and a pg test about same price i think, £70.

I never used opk only went by cm and what my (MyMonthlyCycles.com) predicted as ov days. The month i got pg i only had bd 2 mon and wed. MMC predicted i would ov 3 days later than cbfm showed me to, which was thursday.

I just got my first af after my mc and have already bought sticks for it, so im defenitely gonna use it again as i think its a great ttc aid!!! Its also really easy to use

Good Luck, hun! xxx

Thanks again, am looking at a buy it now on ebay for £40! I think that is quite good value. Do you?

Yes, definitely!!

I remember when i was buying mine i got secretely annoyed when the one i wanted went up in price, lol!! But i bagged one in the end. (Dont forget they're £99 in Boots!!!!)


Good Luck, hun!! xxx

Good luck Michy xxx

Are they a worthwhile investment when your cycles are pretty regular? See now I'm thinking about getting one as well....!!!!!

Nic, my periods have always been spot on so i found it invaluable, to be honest. I never experienced any of the problems other girls have reported, but i do suspect it might have something to do with some having irregular periods etc..

For me the monitor worked exactly as it said on the tin, so to speak!

I warmly recommend it!! xxx
