I'm Currently Feeling: | CBFM question This month was my first using the monitor
I got 6 highs starting on CD 20 - does that mean i didnt OV because i only got highs or that the last high would have been the ov day?? I'm confused
I got spotting on the last 2 days i got highs so maybe it wasnt implantation and maybe it was something else as i still havent had my AF and could be having a longer cycle if i ovulated on the last 2 high days making me about 8dpo today instead of the 14dpo i thought i was
Please help
Thanks  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Did your monitor go straight back to low after your 6 highs? did it not ask you for another batch of test sticks?
I think it can take a couple of cycles to get used to your body but this is my 1st cycle using my CBFM & I haven't had any problems with it xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Wish I can help too, but don't think I can (didn't want to read and run)
My first cycle on CBFM, but I used 20 sticks and got my peak on CD17.
You may have to wait until next cycle. Your CBFM might still be trying to work out your hormone levels so might be more accurate next cycle

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi, I think the CBFM is just getting used to you. I've used mine now for 2 cycles - the first did not have a high and just peaked! and the second had highs and peaks (2 days) then went down. Good luck!  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi Bird24
This is my 2nd month of using the CBFM and I haven't got any peaks yet - I have around a 33 day cycle. I think as its ur first month its prob trying to learn ur cycle. Ok so highs aren't peaks but they still mean ur fertile and ur can get a BFP on highs. Not sure when u mighta ovulated maybe day 23 cos when it seems to work 'normally' people get something along the lines of 2 highs, 2 peaks, 2 highs and then back to lows.
I've been having highs from day 14 now on day 26 so no idea what is happening!!! Thought this CBFM thing was going help me not confuse me more. |
