Hello! I haven't been on in a while.... probably since back shortly after my D&C but I have a new concern and I don't really have anyone to talk with about it beside my husband. I have been using my CBEFM for 2 cycles now and both times it went stright from low to peak. I have yet to see a high reading. Last cycle the peak reading was accurate based on when AF arrived... and this time I am in my TWW so i don't know yet.
My understanding is that the high reading is measuring a rise in estorgen and then peak is a LH rise. Does this mean I have an estrogen problem? Has anyone else had this happen to them?
And to confuse myself even more... all my different tracking methods are saying different O dates. The monitor said ovulated on day 17, OPK said day 19, and FF temps said day 21. I hope day 21 was wrong because we stopped BDing on day 19 thinking we were good
I'm becoming totally paranoid about TTC. Every "condition" I read about I am conviced is my problem. Last month I thought I had a luetal phase defect... until I looked a little closer at my chart and realized it was fine. It's so freaking hard to just relax about it!!! I'm becoming a baby making hypochondriac!
Re: CBEFM low to peak?
This has happened to me twice. Don't worry about it. I got pregnant one of those times when the reading jumped from low to peak.
I haven't had this happen but I have only been using the CBEFM for 2 months and one month it gave me 7 highs and last month I got 1 so now Im wondering what will happen this month.
I plan on using OPK's this cycle too.
