Do the lines on the CBEFM sticks mean anything?

I had a line the other day with high readings and I had a high reading today but no line. I just can't shake the feeling that I might not O. Chat Icon

ETA: I also read that on your first cycle with the monitor you may not get a peak reading? Has that happened to anyone? I guess I should use OPK's too. Chat Icon Chat Icon This is too stressful.

Yes, the lines do mean something. I am a freak and save the sticks until AF shows up. You will gradually see the second line get darker if you line them all up, and then if you keep testing the second line fades away. And yes, it also took three months for the monitor to get to know me and give me a peak reading.

I got a peak reading the first month I used my monitor and I never look at the stick. It even says in the booklet not to go by what the stick says.

the first month, i knew i'd be getting a peak reading once i saw the second line was darker than the first. it's possible you just didn't O this month.

I'm starting to think this. I still had high this morning but really no line. I also took a regular OPK and no line either. Chat Icon Chat Icon
I just don't understand why I keep getting high readings when there is no line. Chat Icon Chat Icon I feel like I'm waiting for something that isn't going to happen. Chat Icon
