Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor

Wondering if anyone else has used the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor and what your experiences are?  I used it years ago with my daughter and was pregnant the first cycle.  We are getting ready to start trying for #2 and wondering if the last time was just luck or do many people have positive experiences like ours using it and getting pregnant?

    I've used the ClearBlue Fertility Monitor for the past three cycles, and I like it a lot. I wasn't having much success with other OPKs, and the monitor eliminates some of the guesswork for me. I also temp and chart. Oh, but I'm not pregnant, so there's that. Good luck!

    I absolutely love it!!! But realistically after 14 months TTC my thermometer is wayyyy cheaper for the exact same data

    Are you referring to an actual Clear Blue Fertility Monitor, or the Clear Blue OPKs?

    I haven't used it but as PP stated, tracking your BBT (basal body temp) will give you the same info for a lot less money. Download an app called Fertility Friend and start tracking with it. Make sure to use a BBT thermometer as well, not a regular one.

    MagicMikki I am talking about the actual fertility monitor not the opk's.  Urani I charted to conceive my daughter and have now charted a few month before we start actively trying next month.  I know about charting but my ovulation date varies and my DH and I aren't super sexual people (if you know what I mean) so pinpointing my most fertile time has varied between cycle day 13-18....which would mean we would need to be trying from day 10-20.  

    The ovulation monitor helps to narrow down those days right when they are occuring rather than after like BBTing.  I have been trying the opk's this month (CD14) but haven't gotten my positive yet so I am still skeptical if it will come.  I tried them when trying for my daughter and they were sooo finicky it just wasn't worth it.

    As PP mentioned, the Wondfo OPK's might be a better solution. I don't have personal experience with them but others rave and they're, again, much cheaper. 

    FX for you!
