CBFM-cd19, 3 bars good or bad???

[PINK BUTTERFLY]

Hey!

Im on the first month of using the Clear Blue Fertility Monitor, I went to 2 bars on cd8 (high) and 3 bars this morning (Fertile) cd19 - Im a bit concerned as isnt cd19 a bit late in the cycle for my body to be getting ready to OV? Worried since I found out about the Latheal phase and if it is less than 10 days it can cause problems? Am on first month of using monitor so dont know if i should stop worrying and see what it says next month but its sooooo hard not to!

Think my cycle is between 26-28 ish, it used to be 28 days spot on but in July I went on holiday and then didnt have the next period for 42 days but Aug and Sep where around 26 days.

Thanks x

Hi Pink Butterfly,
Dont know loads about this but if you have had a long cycle previously then maybe this month could be a long cycle again this month? That would then mean your lutuel phase not so short - but I suppose we will have to wait and see on that!

Just get BD'in loads anyway!!

Out of interest what did the monitor say on day between day 8 day 19 - did it stay high (2 bars) or go back down?

Hi Corrinne37!

It stayed on 2 bars from cd8-19. Yeah v true about cycle days as not 100% sure how long my cycle will be - so annoying as every month was 28 days right up until July this year TYPICAL!

I did get the EWCM yesterday so i do think I am OV today....thats what has worried me because of the Lutuel phase.

Ummmn could be another long month,maybe.

Make sure you get lots of BDing in!!!! and have fun!!! xx

 

[PINK BUTTERFLY]

Yeah I think you are right, no good worrying about it until I know what day by next period starts

Thanks x

I agree, could just be another longer cycle. The fact that you got the EWCM and have hit the peak on the monitor makes it seem that ov is happening!
Good luck and have fun.
I got my peak today too (after just one day of high) so we could possibly get our BFP's around the same time if it happens for us this month!! xx

Hey lisey27

Hey lisey27

3 bars - Excellent! What cd you on? x

 

[lisey27]

Cycle day 13 so it has come earlier than I thought and also only had one day of high so thats not how I expected it to go.
Do you know how long you ovulate after getting the peak on the monitor? This is something I can't remember reading about xx

 

[Star33]

I'm suggesting your gonna have longer cycle this month. EWCM get humping! you usually have ewcm 3 days before ovulation, look out for creamy cm thats when you will know you have ovulated. X

 

[PINK BUTTERFLY]

Think it shows peak for two days (day before OV and OV day) then it does to 2 bars for one day after OV as still chance you can catch the egg.

I went through all those days thinking plz go to 3 bars plz go to 3 bars!!! but this morning I was like NOOOOO what sounds mental but was hoping that as its the first month using it that the monitor was just not ready me probably and that I had already OV around day 14 ish.

Im sure its nothing to worry about but after ready about the lethal phase im really para about it! x

 

[PINK BUTTERFLY]

Hey Star33

Yeah im sure your right and im just over reacting about it all, need to stop freaking.....STOP IT! LOL x

 

[lisey27]

Ok thanks, so I need to continue on my 'quest' (lol) for three more days.
I wouldnt worry, you have had longer cycles before so its not like you are always a strict 26 or 28 day cycle. I cant remember the reason why short luteal phase is not good-is it that it doesnt have time to implant? There are some ladies on here that have got BFP at 7 or 8 dpo so it is poss for implantation to occur within that time.
You never know-it could be that you did already ov and the monitor is just getting used to your body but there is a good chance Ov is happening so make sure you get BD'ing to cover all days. xx

I have never used one of them fertility machines before. I know how stressing it is though, the fact you got ewcm which you only produce around ovulation time, is fab!! you dont produce that type of cervical mucas if your not about to ovulate, so thats a good sign isnt it. This cycle you will no more if you do have a short lutal phase, hopefully you wont come on af & you will have a big juicy BFP.

Have you used this site before, www.pregnology.com Its site that helps to time your ovulation & count your lutal phase, by putting in your cycle day so if you put the number of days your last cycle was & go by that.

Yeah I think you should keep up the good work for the next 3 days - some ppl say you should bd every other day but some sites say to bd every other day when on high days and every day when on peak days.

So you reached 3 bars (peak days) on cd 13 so that means you will be OV tomorrow some time what will be cd14 what sounds perfect x

 

[lisey27]

Yey, its so exciting.
Did you get another peak today? xx

 

[PINK BUTTERFLY]

Hey! Yeah got another peak today but didnt bd as all that business about the L phase yesterday freaked me out, read all this stuff about if you have a short L phase (10 or below, even below 12) it can cause mc!

I know it sounds silly as I was so annoyed with it and myself last night as iv basically wasted a month but really want to wait until I know what my L phase is, feel a bit better about it today then last night tho as read that a certain vitamin and you can get stuff from doc to make your l phase longer.....

Just going to see when my period starts this month and hopefully like you said its a little longer so that the L phase is better x

......Did you get 3 bars today? x
