I am a rather impatient person and like to be in control of certain things in my life (yes, Type A personality). Anyhow, I was 34 when me and my husband started trying to conceive beginning in June 2009 during our 1st year wedding anniversary in the Caribbean. Anyhow, I thought I knew my body like clockwork and that I ovulated on the 14th day of my cycle. WRONG. We tried in June and July during the 5 days before and up to what I thought was when I was ovulating (even planned our anniversary trip around those days). When we did not get pregnant during those 2 months I started freaking out. He's 41 and I was 34 so I thought we were screwed. Then something told me to look into getting a fertility monitor so I purchased this one. I was so annoyed when I opened the box to see that I had to start between the 1st and 5th day of my cycle. By the time I purchased the darn thing I was already on day 7. Being the impatient person that I am (I could not wait until the next month to start using it --- sorry), I just pretended I was on day 5 of my cycle and started using the darn thing. I figured I'd know I was 2 days off and the monitor would catch up on the next go around if we did not succeed during the first time. During the first 16 days of my cycle (according to the monitor) I was at "low" fertility. I started freaking out since, like I stated previously, I thought day 14 was my peak. Then, I got 2 high fertility days on days 17 and 18, followed by 2 peak days on days 19 and 20, respectively. Hence, I ovulated on day 20, which blew my mind. That was also my 35 birthday, which was sort of funny. Me and my husband made sure to have intercourse on virtually all of the high and peak days (especially my birthday of course), although we did skip one day because we both were dead tired from a late night workout. Anyhow, my cycle was 28 days as usual and I did not get my period on the 28th day. So I took one of those First Response (early results) test the day after my period was due (DON'T buy this First Response test BTW, it sucks) and it gave me only one solid line a really faint second line - so faint I really did not notice until I tilted the stupid test but it was so faint I just threw it out and thought I was not pregnant and was really annoyed. I was really crampy so I was certain my period was just late and it was coming any day. But when my period still did not come almost 10 days later I took other tests and they confirmed I was pregnant!!! I am currently 6 weeks. Me and hubby are going our prenatal checkup in a couple of days to hopefully hear the heart beat and do genetic testing. Very very excited. This product worked like a charm. Worth EVERY penny! P.S. -- I'm still very crampy and very very bloated but it's worth it. VS Most Liked Negative Review Helpful Technology (Maybe More! TBD!) This product is fine and certainly helpful.

I'm a mother to a one-year old and trying to conceive again. My hormones are still a bit out of whack, and so the CBFM is helpful in trying to pinpoint my new post-first baby cycle.

After one month of trying, we are pregnant! I learned so much about my cycle using this product. I would recommend the dipstick method for more accurate results. Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: Don't think about it twice - buy this it works! It worked for us on the first month using it and we are having our first baby in May! Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: TIMING IS EVERYTHING!!!! I have never bothered to review a product purchased on the Internet, but this one is EXCEPTIONAL!!!! After going off the pill, my cycles were crazy (29-45 days). Ovulation was impossible to predict, as it changed month to month. Guessing became tedious and our work schedules did not allow us to try every other day for 4-5 weeks. After almost a year, we broke down and spent the money for the monitor and our only regret is not doing it sooner. It takes all the STRESS out of TTC. 2 months in, I am pregnant and will definitely use the monitor again!!! Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: This was the best investment we ever made! Our Clearblue Easy baby is now 2 years old and we are going to use it again to conceive another. My husband and I tried for 3 years to have a baby and doctors were no help. I tried keeping a chart with basal body temps, but that is complicated and was not very accurate (obviously) for me. We got this monitor and were pregnant by the 3rd month! Thanks Clearblue! Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: Drawbacks: You have a 4-hour window to pee on the stick. Because of my work schedule and my hamster-sized bladder, I would up doing this at 4 am most of the time. Results: mixed. The monitor should register when you're having an estrogen surge, which precedes ovulation. Then it should show an egg in the window when you are actually ovulating, based on another hormone. Out of 4 months, only once did I get the monitor to do that. The other months I either got the estrogen surge and no egg indicator, or I got an egg indicator and no estrogen surge. However, I did figure out when I was ovulating, because I saw a pattern to the readings. Plus, I found the way it tracked the days of my cycle helpful. Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: My husband & I had been trying to conceive for nearly a year when I decided to try this product. I was hesitant at first because it is costly. But I did my research & read all the reviews I could find. My periods were a little on the long side, & even with charting I was never really sure when I was ovulating. My first month using the monitor I had to use two packs of test sticks b/c it prompted me to start on day 6 and I didn't ovulate until day 19. Once you are prompted for one stick, you will be prompted for ten sticks. If you need 11 then you will have to use 20. The monitor "learns" your cycle & should adjust for future months. With the early detection, we were lucky enough to conceive in our second month using the monitor! I am just 6 weeks along right now but I didn't want to waste any time suggesting this product to other couples that might be on the fence about whether or not to spend the money. I am completely satisfied and looking forward to what it has helped us achieve! Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: An amazing investment - we bought this after a few months of unsuccessful trying (we're very impatient!). It turns out that I ovulate earlier than I thought I did. I would have never known it otherwise. We got pregnant after our first month with the monitor! Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: I highly recommend this monitor. My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for about 1 1/2 years. In June of last year, I miscarried. Since then, my cycles have been a little hard to follow. I wasn't even sure I was ovulating every month, as I don't seem to get the physical symptoms most people get. I had been using the regular test sticks to each month to find out when I might be ovulating. One month, it would be day 8, next month day 20. It was getting expensive, so I read the reviews here and decided to take the plunge. I bought a monitor. I have used it for one cycle and just took a pregnancy test today and low-and-behold, I'm pregnant. I haven't even had a chance to tell my husband yet. I like that it tells you when your chances are good and then when you're at peak time for trying. THANK YOU CLEARBLUE EASY! Just need to get over that 12-week hump now... Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: I give this product 5 stars....mostly because of the fact that there is absolutely NO guess work involved, unlike regular OPK's (guessing if the lines are darker and what-not). It does ALL the work for you! Before buying this product, my DH and I had been trying for 1 1/2 years and finally got pregnant (on our own)...unfortunately, we m/c'd shortly after. After 4 more months of trying, I finally broke down and invested in the CBE FM. I thought, "If we get pregnant, it will be the best investment we could ever make". I got pregnant THAT month. I am due in about a month and a half. Oh...and I have rather irregular periods also. It does everything it says it does...monitors your most fertile times. Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea: I've been using this for 6 months now. My peak fertile days have been different each cycle, so it's definitely been helpful in that regard. However, my husband and I have each gone for a series of fertility tests prescribed by my doctor. All of our tests have come back normal and neither one of us has an infertility problem. Just because the monitor indicates your peak fertile days, that does not mean that you will get pregnant. Buyer beware. Displaying reviews 191-200
