I'm Currently Feeling: | CBFM experts ... ...when  has gone but it still has M on CBFM do you have to do anything to let it know how long it lasted or just leave it?
Sorry if this seems a dumb question but seeing as how monitor is trying to get to know me i thought it might like to know this, i mean short of going to dinner together and explaining my life story...sorry rambling  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi Tansey,
is this your first cycle using it?
To be honest ive never bothered reading it that closely, lol!! You can tell i only care about the poas and peak business, ha,ha!!
There's nothing you can do as far as i know, and besides once it asks for sticks it figures it out anyway as it starts to read your hormones etc..so my advice is ignore it.
Ive never had a problem with it. Hope this helps if any  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks hun, this is the 2nd cycle with it (where was that  it practically promises us?). I just started thinking about it. I also cheated already because it says that if  arrives after your normal time slot to start CD1 the next day but i didn't like that because it doesn't fit in with my ticker and FF and the actual day to me that is CD1 - am I very naughty messing with it's mind?  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi tansey
The steady 'm' is there for the first 5 cycle days, and towards the end of your cycle the 'm' flashes in anticipation of AF. I think the monitor calculates it based on your ovulation date.
I've been using mine for 6-7 months now, and still no  . But heyhoe, at least I know when I'm most fertile and when I ovulate.  |
