Newbie with a question

DH and I started TTC #2. I started keeping track of my cycles a few months ago and it has ranged from 38-42 days.

So, I started using the CBE monitor this month. I started testing on CD6 and have had 2 bars since CD7. Now, on CD12, I got the 3 bars with the egg.

Is it possible to have such a long cycle while ovulating on CD12? I am so confused.

DH and I have been BDing for a few days now and will continue to do so for the next couple of weeks to be cautious.

The first time you use the CBE it takes a little while to get used to you. CD 12 is right around the perfect time to get your peak if you have a 28 day cycle. When you get the peak you will normally O within 24 hours.

ETA: Oh I just realized you said your cycles were 38-42 days, so I have no idea to answer the actual question you asked. Redstar?

Re: Newbie with a question

Read up on your luteal phase(the time between O and your next period) yours seems long. Redstar is the one we need to answer this. Try FM'ing her. But for now read up on the luteal phase

Ovulation can change from cycle to cycle. CBFM is excellent for detecting ovulation. Most people ovulate the first day they get a peak reading on the monitor, it's different than the opks. The CBFM measures estradoil and LH, and when they are both surging, to the amount to give you a peak reading, that's usually O time.

I am not sure why your previous cycles were longer, but this cycle is going to be 24-28 days unless you conceive, which will make it 9 months :)

I hope so. Thank you very much. Based on your avator, I hope Kokkopelli brings his magic to you in the New Year.
