I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi loopy! I would try not to worry about your readings, if you have gotten a peak reading before. I know Tishi had trouble one cycle with the CBFM and O'd very late but the monitor was unable to detect the peak. But the next it went back to working just fine...maybe your body is just being weird or diff this cycle. Are you using opks too? So long as you get in good BDing when you get your highs, and I would just BD to be on the safe side even with the lows. I am really unsure about the CBFMs...I know they work but for me they did not. We have weird cycles though (you do right???)...so I think that it is harder for the monitor when your cycles are inconsistent. LOTS of  for you !!!  | |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi loopylew
I agree with avistar. Try not to worry too much about it. The first month or so the monitor is trying to learn your cycle anyhow, and as long as you get plenty of BDing in during your high days, you stand a good chance of catching that elusive egg.
BTW. How did DH get on at the doctors?
Good luck

When my DH did his SA, he did it at home and then drove it to the hospital which is probably the same sort of distance away for us too. The next SA he has to do needs to be done at the hospital. This next one is much more in depth as it is going to form the basis for our IVF treatment, which I think is why it has to be done in the hospital.
Good luck with the tests.
