What the? (CBEFM related)

This is my first month using a CBEFM so ive been testing since CD 6. I've had low fertility up until today (CD14). But instead of high, I'm already at peak...
How is that possible??
Does that mean my window to BD is even smaller?
Will it ask me to test again tomorrow?
Should i try an OPK later? (Last month i got a on CD 16)

Anyone?

Sincerely,
Confused!!!!

That is weird. From my understanding the CBEFM gets to know your cycles. It tests for two different hormones, maybe both were detected and thats why you went right to peak. I'd use an OPK as well. It usually tests a few days after my peak so it should ask for a test tomorrow also.

The same thing happened to me today. I'm at CD 11, yesterday i got a low reading and today Peak! This happened to me once before over the summer.

I cant edit on my Ipad so i made another post. I just tested with a OPK and it was a negitave result. No surge Did you end up using an OPK as back up?

I'm going to do an OPK when I get home from work in an hour. Very curious to see what it says...I generally get cramps from O as well as EWCM & nothing so far. I wonder, is the CBEFM very sensitive?

That happened to me, dont worry. The monitor is just getting to know you. BD and do what has to be done. I didnt get a BFP the 1st time but, the 2nd month I did get low, high then peak. Its nothing to worry about.

Re: What the? (CBEFM related)

Woo hoo!
I'd test tomorrow to be sure and possibly BD again.

Re: What the? (CBEFM related)

I've had it jump like that before a few time as well. I think it happens when the surge is greater than it normally is for you.

Next cycle make sure you BD during the low fertile times as well... I'd make sure to BD during low, high and peak fertility to increase my chances. I used the CBEFM as a tool to know when to really step up the BD .. but I BD throughout my cycle, not just for high and peak times. It really just ensures that you have covered your bases.

CBEFM will ask you to test for 2 days of Peak and a 3rd day of high... but I used to just save my sticks bc you always get the 2 peak and 1 high... I think it's default.
