Cbfm help

This is my first month using cbfm, I am ttc girl and we are bding through ov. Can anyone who has used it in conjunction with temping tell me what it said on the day they ov, was it 'high' or 'peak' and if it was peak, was it the first record dat. Thanks!

it varies per person - the first peak is exactly the same as a positive on an OPK - so OV will happen within 12-48hrs of that

I've used the CBFM in conjunction with temping for 3 cycles in total - in 1 of them temps showed I ov'd on the 2nd peak, on another I ov'd on the 1st peak, and on the third my temps said I ov'd on the 2nd peak but my scan dates (an early one and also dating scan) both agreed with each other and put me one day ahead so said that I ov'd on the day of the 1st peak

I'm swaying boy, but am waiting for af to start and I will be using this monitor too for the first time so will be watching this thread!!

This morning I got the egg sign!!!! I'm so excited as I didn't ov last cycle but it went from low to peak so I feel a bit unprepared!!! I was planning on eating basic food when I saw high and I had curry last night, oh dear!!! Oh well, I'll be god today and I'll probably ov today, can you lose weight in a day????!!!???

don't worry about the curry, they have girls in India too ;)
good luck!

I don't think a once off curry will do any harm :)

I had just the same thing happen swish, first cycle using it and went from low to peak yesterday! Got another peak today so am assuming will O today or tomorrow. I am ttc girl too and will bd through O.
You may well O tomorrow (when I was using monitor for previous pg I used to always get 2 peak readings and O on second reading). Let us know what happens and good luck!!

Thank you, indigo, that's really useful! We will be 2ww buddies!!!
Lol, rainbow, they definitely have girls in india, I've thought that many times whilst trying to avoid my favourite spices, chilli and garlic!!!
Good luck with the monitor ttc5, I loved seeing the egg this morning, lol!!! I hated trying to decipher the darkness of the line on opk!!!

It can always go from low to peak or low high peak you just never know what will happen! And Im using this monitor for years! But for sure you don't O before the peak window! Usually on the second peak or even after.But this month I had O on the first peak day. So I always use the smiley test to just to make sure lol oh yeah and temping too:sigh:

Just wanted you guys to know that I am working on the girl cookbook and I include chili, curry, and also instructions that you can add garlic if you choose to.

France, Italy, and Greece all use a lot of garlic in their cuisine and have both boys and girls!! ;)

That is soooo good to know, atomic!!
Quick extra question, when I got the egg on the cbfm this morning we dtd today, should we also dtd tomorrow? I planned to go through ov but dh has released solo for 6 days then we dtd once today, would dtd just two days in a row sway blue?

Are you doing anything like RepHresh or antihistamines??

It's prob. best not to DTD, although I would!!

I am not doing refresh but I am doing antihis. Why do you think it's better not to? Thanks for getting back to me!!

Oh, I mean "best" in terms of sticking to a strict sway (you know, the kind where you're only supposed to have one attempt.). I would totally go ahead and DTD, just know that you will be possibly raising pH a bit and also upping sperm count, which may sway blue to some extent - but as I always say, if you don't get pg, you have no chance at your DG!! GL.

Thank you, atomic, we did dtd again so now we shall see!!!!!

swish, it would be wonderful if you got pregnant this month. FX!

Thanks, z, it would be!!! I've surprised myself by how chilled I am, of course I would be delighted but now I'm more flexible with the diet, I'm not fpdreading another month!! Plus this month I put on 5 lbs which I had to but next month I could remain stable. Aaahh!!! Time will tell, xxxx

I've put on 4lb just from stopping the LE diet - I'm gutted!!

Don't be gutted, you have a gorgeous bean to look after!! Plus when you want to lose weight, you have a fantastic diet plan!!

Help please!!
I had 2 peak readings with a lovely picture of an egg on my cbfm and today (day after 2nd peak day) I expected a temp rise but I didn't get one :(
Does this mean my body tried to ovulate and didn't or might I get a temp rise tomorrow? I didn't ov last cycle which is why I'm obsessing. Any help appreciated, thanks!

It's the same as a pos opk not guaranteeing that you do ov. Remember that you can ov 48hrs after first peak (or pos opk) so you might ov on the last "high" day

So you got your temp rise today? Good news, hope you get your BFP! :HH:

Thank you, yes I got a slight rise and hopefully it'll go up more tomorrow, fx!!

Any news???

Yes, temp went right up, yay!!! 4dpo today, fx!!!

Wahoo!!!!! GL!!!!

FX!!!!

Thanks :)
