CBEFM- not first morning urine.

So stupid me turns on the monitor at 7AM today my window is from 7AM-1PM and the machine is not requesting a stick (its CD10) for me. I find it weird so I pee and go back to bed. As I go back to bed I realize the machine is still saying CD9 not CD10 and thats why it didnt ask for a stick. Apparently the internal clock didnt register yet so its still thinking its yesterday, ugh. Anyway, I go back to bed and I wake up now (11am) I pee and insert the test...So, I held my urine for 4 hours before I tested do you think that is ok? Would the machine still give me an accurate reading?

Re: CBEFM- not first morning urine.

Im not sure but it says it has to be FMU. For me from CD6 it asked me to test 10 days straight. Also I peed in a cup just in case anything went wrong.

Re: CBEFM- not first morning urine.

I think skipping the test would be worse than not using FMU.

It MIGHT mess up in the results area... but don't skip a test.

Sometimes these things happen with.... one mistake can throw it off for the month. it's OK it happens. I'd just test with the pee now and hope for the best.

Also, just really MAKE sure you cover your basis and just A LOT A LOT A LOT!!!! I'm always telling people to BD!!!! I feel like a pimp.

Haha, trust me we are def. trying. So far we CD6, CD7 and CD9 today is CD10 but Im debating whether we should tonight or skip a day. I want the spermies to be nice and strong and build up My fertile phase according to past cycles are from CD11-15 however my last BFP I got by only on CD10 so now I dont know what to do. Do you think I should BD tonight and start tomorrow on CD11 or BD tonight and continue everyday after?

ETA: I did still test with the 2nd urine which was a 4hr wait from the first and I got a low reading.

IDK if I'm too late on this (if so still I think it's good to know for future reference)... but I would def on CD 10 and then everyday after.
I'm very into the more the better!!! The only time I wouldn't recommend it this way is if your DH has sperm issues. If he's fine then go at it daily around the peak and high times!!! if you know those times are coming, don't be afraid to add a few sessions into the schedule... that's the time to up the game and go daily.
for example... I know around CD16 I would start to get high readings and around CD20 I would peak..... So i'd go everyday from CD14/15 to CD23 (if CD20 is peak, then so is CD21 and CD22 is high so I'd try to keep going). IF I missed out on a day between CD14 and CD23... it really wasn't the end of the world because there was SO MUCH sex going on that I was still really covered. I did actually miss a day or two the cycle I got pregnant. The ABSOLUTE MOST important day, if you ask me, is the day BEFORE you ovulate!!
It's a LOT of work.... I won't lie.... but it works!! The cycle I got a BFP.... we had the most sex out of all my cycles.
I did Deanna's Plan...but I added in a lot of extra sessions prior to O.
