New and Confused

Hi Ladies
I use to lurke a lot on LIW last year when planning my wedding and just found this board and decided to join. My DH and I decided to start TTC in January and were nieve to think that it would be a piece of cake. This stuff is confusing and I am trying to keep up.

We took the approach of letting things take its coarse but after three months of BFN's we decided to buy the CBEFM. I am now on CD 16 and still no egg on CBEFM but have been on High since CD 7. Since going off of BCP my cycles have been 32, 31 and 29 days so I thought I would O yesterday or today. Is it possible that I am not O'ing at all? Or am I just freaking out too early and should continue to use the CBEFM and wait for the egg?

Any suggestions?

My last couple of cycles have been 31, 32, 34ish... days and I never O'd that early.

You are probably getting ready to O and will probably within the next 3 days. If your cycles are always within the time frame you posted.

Re: New and Confused

Thanks for your helpChat Icon Those have been my cycles since I went off BCP so its hard for me to figure out when I will O. The CBEFM has given me 9 days of a high reading so I didn't know if I am not O'ing at all or if I am estimated to early.

Re: New and Confused

Is this your first month using the CBEFM? My first 2 months using it I did not get an egg at all. I just got high readings from like day 7 on and then back to low. I was told by CB that the monitor sometimes needs to get to know you. So I tried again. After that, I got my egg and we got pg, but I lost the baby unfortunately. I have gotten my egg as early as CD and as late as CD16.

Im sorry for your loss.
Yes this is my first month with CBEFM. I did read that it takes a month or two to get to know you but when I got the high on day 7 I was all excited thinking it was the beginning of O'ing. Did you continue to test until it went back to Low? The tests are expensive so I didn't know how long to keep going if I didn't get an egg soon.

Keep going!

I had a TON of high days on my first cycle, but I did get a peak. The next cycle, I still had many high days, but this past cycle (my 3rd with CBEFM) I only had maybe 4 or 5 high days before my peak

Best of luck! and welcomeChat Icon

YES I continued as long as it told me to test, I tested and after 2 months I finally got my egg and have every month since. But test every day it tells yuo to that is important! I had 1 month test me almost the whole month. HAng in there, it will work! When i got my egg I was so happy I carried the monitor all over the house all day just turning it on and off to see it.

This was me too!!!!!! Chat Icon

I am on my first CBEFM month, and I had to POAS for almost 2 weeks straight. I did get my egg for the 2 days you are supposed to, but with MANY high days before. I think this is supposed to happen the first month.

Chat Icon to you!
