I don't know anything about the CBFM but you should be charting your temps. Its the only way to confirm ovulation. The image you posted isn't quite positive. The test line is lighter than the control. Its very close so you may be gearing up to O. But like I said charting bbt is the only way to really confirm it happened.

I have a monitor and the monitor never fails.. I am sure the monitor reads the stick without error better than our naked eyes .. Maybe you didn't ovulate this month :(.. That is why I choose have a monitor so I am able to know if I am ovulating or not and take action in case I had more than one consecutive cycle without ovulating ( trouble releasing hormones ) .. Take care :)

Hi, Unfortunatally I only started using the ovulation test yesterdasy morning when i was concerned that the monotor might not be working because on the actual CBFM sticks test line was much darker than previous ones yet it was still on low so i then bought some normal simple ovulation tests and its looked close to ovulation or possible like i just had the evening before? because since then ive done 5 other ovulation tests all which were most definatly meant i wasnt ovulating. I can put the photos on if that helps? I also spoke to CBFM help line which told me in some cases people have got pregnant right after the egg ovulates in the evening and so the monitor never picks up a peak which could explain the ovutaion test stick,So confused.

I loved my monitor and it did work for me...but not every month will you get 5 high days and 2 peaks. One month I had 10 "high" days in a row. The cycle I conceived it went straight from low to peak the next day (with no high days) and we only BDed once during those peak days. I used it for 6 months and no matter how many (or lack thereof) of high days, I always had 2 peak days (which I confirmed with OPKs). Your OPK is almost positive but the test line still appears to be slightly lighter than the control line. If in doubt, BD just to be sure, but if you had a high day today it might be peak by tomorrow. Good luck!
