Temps and CBEFM NOT matching up- wdyt?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Need help, hoping you ladies can help me clear something up.

I temp and use the CBEFM. My temp looks like I O'd. Chart here: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2c383d

BUT- my CBEFM didn't start reading high until AFTER supposed O day (I'm on my third day High). No peak yet.
But, there's nothing to make me think my temps are not accurate. Plus, I did spot on 1dpo, which could have been O spotting...

I've chart stalked on FF, it looks like temps generally line up with the monitor, any ideas what's going on for me? Any other CBEFM users find their temps DON'T match with the monitor??

I'm bf'ing and my CM is really not there. I've tried CP, but it's like

So confused! and really, really hoping I haven't O'd cuz we were trusting the monitor and we missed O if it happened when my temp looks like it did. Arg. I'm kicking myself for trusting a machine, tho, I used it pre-DD and it was pretty dang useful... However, a CD9 O would be sort of unheard of for me, so maybe my temps are off?
this whole ttc go-round is way more frustrating than i anticipated.

TIA for thoughts and support.

I don't temp amnymore because of the breastfeeding but I do use CBFM and I also use OPKs to compare. It look like you O'd on cd9 which is really early but I'm not sure why your monitor didn't pick up any surge. I am really no help maybe someone else has more insight. My monitor has been pretty predictable except for this month when it gave me 5 high days before peak and in the past I have always gotten 2 high before peak.

I just looked at your chart again and thought maybe your surge was just really quick. Some women have missed their surge with OPKs if they only test once a day. Since the monitor only reads every morning maybe it just missed the actual surge but detected the change and thats why it gave you a high after your temp started to rise. My monitor gave me Peak on cd 15 & 16 but I know I was surgeing on cd14 because I got a almost pos at about 2pm. It probably surged that afternoon or evening but my monitor didn't get the message till the next day and I am pretty sure I O'd on the first peak day so think the monitor isn't fool proof.
