Wow, did not realise this!!

I hope you guys don't mind me posting on your forum! But i've been reading for awhile & can finally join one that I can relate too lol. My husband & I are on our first cycle with the CBFM. I was really surprised that I got 2 peaks with my first month of using! I got highs on CD 10-12. Got my peaks 13-14. Then another high CD 15. Then back to low on CD 16. We've been married for almost 2 years & been trying for almost 10 months! So I really hope it works for us! Good luck to all you ladies! =)

Yes - you can have waves of LH surges throughout the cycle actually, and you can have a LH surge and not ovulate, and then have another one a little later in the cycle where you do ovulate. And the CBFM is not perfect at picking up the LH surge, which is why I also do a cheap OPK in the evenings on my "high" days to make sure I don't miss it!

Thanks for that Daisy Q. Your method is different to everything else I've read. They all say not to wait until the urine had passed the test window and to put it straight into the machine.

I'm definitely going back to charting, it's just the fact that I was ill abc out if the habit that stopped me this cycle. I just got a low on my 20th stick so if I did ovulate, I'm not sure when it was. Time will tell I suppose

Hi girls,

So I'm 2dpo now, and a bit gutted, as had a row with Dh and didn't get to bd on second peak or next high... Wondering if there's still hope :/

Lovely! I have only been to New York and Miami, there is still so much of the States I want to see, want to do East to West coast, and all the lovely interesting places inbetween.

If those annoying people who have sex just once and don't have a scooby when they are ovulating...get pregnant....then there is still hope for you.
