CBEFM Girls I have a question
The first cycle you used the monitor did you get a lot of high days?
Today was day 4 of high. I know the book says you can get 5 + high days the first time. I'm just wondering if this is the norm. 
I'm starting to lose hope of ovulating.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Last month I had 16 days of a high reading before getting a peak, the month before that only 3 days before seeing a peak reading. Right now, I'm currently on day 6 of high reading (I'm on CD18) Although, my cycles are completly wacked out because I have PCOS and have been on Clomid for the past 4 cycles, so that may have something to do with it.

 16 days  I don't know if I can wait that long.
Thanks for the answer. My cycles are a little wacky too from a medication I had so I am hoping they are getting back to normal. This is the first month of a high reading at all. I haven't ovulated the past two months so I have been resetting the monitor because I didn't want it to know me on false info.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Are you also using OPKs? I use them along with the monitor, but I also go to a RE so it's required I use the OPKs too. For me, I know that when I get a positive on my OPK I will get a peak reading usually the next morning. Plus, I'm obsessive, so as long as I can see the test line on the OPK getting darker, I know I'm getting closer, in addition, I also use the digital around the time I think I'm going to ovulate so I don't misinterpret the lines, because again, I'm obsessive.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
I haven't been but since I got a high I've been using the OPK's I have lying around but they are the digital ones so you aren't supposed to read the lines.
I have 3 of those left. I guess I'll go back to the regular ones when those run out. I had those from before I had the monitor.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Can you get highs and not ovulate?
I don't seem to have EWCM which makes me think it's not coming soon.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Yes, that's happened to me before, I got a bunch of highs, never a peak and then back down to low

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Starting CD7 I've been getting High readings, whereas with my last two cycles I only had ONE high reading, the day before I O'd, on CD12 and 14 respectively.
I asked my RE about it, and she said it looks like I'm having an estrogen surge this month (I'm also having a serious overabundance of CM, which boosts the theory), so I guess anything is possible.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
The first cycle I got about 10 highs. The second cycle, and my BFP cycle, I got 4 highs then my peaks.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
Thanks for all the feedback. I'm going to be patient and keep hoping. I just don't seem to have any EWCM which makes me a little nervous that I'm not going to O.

Re: CBEFM Girls I have a question
I have been using it and every month I get a different amount of high days before my peak. My friend has used it and it took her four months to see a peak. The other months she got high days.

That is possible, but I wouldn't give up hope just yet. I actually got peaks also my first cycle using it and didn't ovulate (I temped). Then the next month I got less high's and my peaks, and a BFP. Good luck!
