That's not what I meant. It takes 6 full months, it cycles out one month of hers and one month of your information in each month. It doesn't mean if the monitor is used 6 months (a period of 6 months) after someone else it will cycle all the information out. Read the manual in the back where it talks about using someone else's monitor. Good luck and baby dust but please at least educate yourself on how they truly work. I don't want you to be working on false hopes!
What you are likely reading online btw is also because people are reporting about using New monitors. I had the same issues with mine.
