I miscarried in June. My period came almost exactly a month later in July. I used the monitor and got pregnant at the end of July. I got mine new on Ebay!
I used it to get pregnant this time and with ds. It worked the first cycle with ds. This time it took longer, but I was also breastfeeding. As soon as I stopped bfing I got pregnant. We had sex on every high and peak day.

CBEFM is a little tricky to use if you have longish/unpredictable cycles. I think you can only use it if your cycles are <40 days or something like that. I had some long/unpredictable cycles, so using CBEFM was a little tricky, but in the end, it did help me to get my BFP for both pgs. For my 2nd pg, I got pg on the 3rd cycle using it... which, I should mention, was the 1st cycle it worked well for me b/c my cycles were finally starting to regulate.
I did. The first time, it took 10 cycles to get pg (I started charting along with CBEFM during cycles 9 and 10). The second time I was using CBEFM and charting (and doing all sorts of other things - green tea, pre-seed, pom juice, etc.) and it took 3 cycles. However, I had an HSG in June, so that may have had more to do with it than the CBEFM.
I liked it, and will use it again for #2. It was nice to have a warning, and then a peak "window," since with charting, you don't know if you O'd until after the fact. It was also good to know I actually was ovulating that whole time, and that whatever problems we may have, ovulation probably wasn't one of them.
Yes, I used it to get both of myBFPs. Got BFP first cycle using it with DD and sixth cycle (was only trying for four) this time around. I also used OPKs just to make sure the info I was getting was correct and low and behold, they each gave me + and peaks at the same time. Good luck!
I tried for 6 months with no luck, then got my BFP the first month we used the CBEFM. We had sex on the first peak day, and that was it. But that was enough!
BFP #1 10/17/09: missed m/c at 7 weeks; BFP #2 10/22/10: chemical pregnancy; BFP #3: 1/28/11
Re: Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor?
We did, which was great as I had really irregular cycles so would be hard to predict when I would O. We got pregnant on the 2nd cycle.
Let me know if I can answer any other questions!
Good luck!!!

Lurking from 3rd tri. I used the CBEFM and I got my BFP on the second month of using it, after 5 months total of trying.
I love it, would have never known I wasn't O'ing until really late in my cycle!
