weird charting month- need help

this has been my first month using my CBEFM. i am on CD 13 and it is still reading low. ( for the past 2 months i ovulated on Cd14 and 15)
i had a small amount of spotting on CD11 and have fertile CM. this morning my temps went up alot, although i did have a poor sleep.
does this mean i ovulated allready and my monitor is not working?
could the high temp be false, and i should keep using my monitor and BD'ing? very confused, just want to give up this month!!

It's really all about the fertility monitor sticks....They are the most crucial part....are you noticing any difference in the darkness or lightness of the lines ?

Has the line closest to the wick ever been darker than the other line ?

I am not so sure you Oed yet....because...based on your usual post O temps 98.2 can be borderline for you.

Keep bding , and see what's going to happen with the chart. I do understand your frustration though...It's very rare for the fertility monitor to miss a surge because it's really measuring estradoil...and that's key. You can also poas on the fm stick during the day or evening to see if there is a change in the stick.

I do find it odd that the monitor is giving you all these lows because I thought it was programmed to go to HIGH the first month using it fairly quickly...on cd8.

Is it possible you aren't getting enough urine on the stick? I now PIAC to prevent that from happening!

Re: weird charting month- need help

my sticks havent changed at all, the one line is still dark and the other i can barely see...
i did call the company and they said you wont always see a high on CD8 the first month.. i find that odd also, because everyone else seems to go up at that time also.. i would think my monitor was broken, but the sticks dont lie! i guess i will contine to BD..

i PIAC too, cant be trusted to POAS first thing in the morning!!
