I've still got a high on the monitor. Why is it so crap for me?

Mm m I too am beginning to doubt the monitor,
is it cos the monitor picks up on estrogen and the opk sticks pick up on lh surges so maybe ur surges are there but not enough estrogen yet
If that makes any sense

Oh I don't know

I'm just so glad I got some digital opks this month to back up!
Now I've ovulated should I Keep testing with cbfm? I feel like I'm wasting sticks but it won't help the monitor to work better next cycle (if needed! ) will it?

I'm now on CD 31. Started getting highs on CD 10 and never got a peak, so had to reset the monitor a few days ago so I could keep testing. Still just getting highs. But I did get a positive OPK yesterday and I think another one today, and also seeing lots of CM, so I'm really hopeful I am finally ovulating and the monitor just isn't picking it up due to first cycle issues. BDed yesterday and going to again today! Then will be watching my temperatures very closely. Wish me luck!

And good luck to all of you!

Good luck Hun! All you can do is

as much as possible to coverall bases

I'm still going with the monitor because I'm still not sure I really did ovulate... The last two cycles I assumed I had before I actually did so we stopped BDing too early, so I'm determined not to let that happen again! But if my temps go up in the next couple days, I'll probably stop just to save the money on the test sticks.

We bd'd every other when cbfm said high, and every night when it peaked, your plan seems like a good idea! Have fun!

Hi girls

Just an update from me. After being thoroughly confused with the cbfm and it not detecting my ovulation this cycle I put it away and gave up testing. I've just found out I'm expecting

I'm sure it's great for most people but for me it was nothing but confusing and trouble.

Good luck to you all and lots of

Congratulations!!! It good to hear a success story!

No luck for me on my first month of using CBFM. The monitor detected no peaks just lots of highs! For the past 6 months my cycle had been 42-44 days however this month my Cycle was 31 days. My AF is a lot lighter than usual and I'm not experiencing any cramps. I am hoping my cycle is getting back to normal. Fingers crossed I get a BFP this time around ��
