BBT / CBFM Help!

Drivinmecrazy · Mar 29th, 2012, 01:23 AM

Morning ladies. I've been using the clear blue easy fertility monitor for about 5 month now and I generally get peak readings for 2 consecutive days anywhere between cd11 and cd16. Today is my second peak day st cd15. this is my first month at bbt charting though and I'm confused. I've only been doing it a few days, but cd11 was 97.9 (I slept in), cd12 97.58, cd13 97.45, cd14 97.86 and now cd15 back down to 97.58. What does this mean? Shouldn't it have stated higher for longer? Please help!

Hi, sorry I don't know much about CBFM, does when it peak it means you are about to ovulate like with OPKs or does it mean you have already.
With the temps your temp can drop the day you ovulate and then will rise after you have ovulated so if you have ovulated day 15 then they would start rising now.
Sorry can't be more help

Thanks Sarahh, yes I think the CBFM is supposed to rise when you're about to ovulate. Fingers crossed my temp is higher tomorrow morning, which I'm guessing will mean I ovulated today? I felt like I ovulated last night but tbh I'm just all a bit confused I think!

Hi Hun don't be confused

I would say as today is second peak and you have a temp dip today then that's probably because it's ovulation day? If its shoots back up tomorrow that will confirm it for you, I get a temp dip on second peak (not by much thou but that's just me) and the first high after it goes back up again
