Thanks! How long are you supposed to dip it in the dixie cup? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270830 Sat, 25 Aug 2012 11:05:03 +0000 marionberry 270830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: good to know! I usually sit there counting the 3 seconds, but sometimes it's hard for me to tell if I really hit it, so I hold it an extra second or two. No error yet, luckily. That would make me so annoyed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270783 Sat, 25 Aug 2012 10:32:53 +0000 SAHM0811 270783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how exciting! Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270700 Sat, 25 Aug 2012 07:57:19 +0000 PrincessBaby 270700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: Just wanted to pipe up that you will absolutely want to use a dixie cup...Sometimes you can get an error if there is say - too much pee on the stick....This happened to me in the first month I used the monitor and I was freaking out wondering if it messed anything up, because it resulted in me having to skip a day on the monitor...Stress! So I would suggest doing the cup in case the monitor can't read your one-and-only-peestick at some point. It will just flash an error on the screen instead of telling you low/med/high. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270698 Sat, 25 Aug 2012 07:50:05 +0000 JoJoGirl 270698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ambular1025: I need to get some latex gloves or something, it's ridiculous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270506 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 21:51:08 +0000 marionberry 270506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbird how exciting! Check the way you put in the batteries because on my monitor you had to put them in opposite the normal way.</p> <p>@jojogirl the sticks are super small! I really have to wake up and focus to prevent a mess. You will probably have to do 20 sticks this time but they're worth it in the end. I bought 2 boxes to start with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-270119 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 15:44:42 +0000 sweetooth 270119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl, best of luck with the CBEFM! I've been using it since last September, and it has been helpful for timing things and verifying my temps.</p> <p>I had to use 20 sticks for the first cycle, but ever since then it's only been 10 sticks each month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-269243 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:08:57 +0000 JoJoGirl 269243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I'm a little annoyed it made me start testing so early in my cycle since *I* know I don't O til CD20 or 21 usually, so it feels a bit like I'm wasting sticks. And they are so small I keep peeing on myself :-/ haha. Time to switch to a dixie cup maybe. Other than that, YES!!!! It's amazing how my level of stress has come down knowing I don't need to worry if I should start my OPKs on CD10 or CD15 or whatever, I just feel like my bases are covered. Love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-269241 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 07:06:43 +0000 mrs. bird 269241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: so exciting!! You can be my CBEFM tutor :) It didn't have any batteries in it, and it takes 4 AAA, but i only had 3 new ones, so I grabbed an old one that I knew was dead &amp; threw it in there with the new ones but it won't turn on :( so I have to get some more batteries today! Also gotta get AF goin so I can start it. Are you loving yours so far? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-269229 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 06:57:32 +0000 JoJoGirl 269229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: YAY!!!!!!!!!</p> <p>I'm on day 4 using mine so I can help you figure out how to use it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-269224 Fri, 24 Aug 2012 06:55:11 +0000 sorrycharlie 269224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yayy good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/look-what-came-today#post-268894 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:15:55 +0000 mrs. bird 268894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@redsmarties: I bought mine on eBay! $65 :) keep lookin, you'll find a good deal on one! </p> <p>@jholler25: I don't know, today's day 51, still haven't Oed :( hopefully soon so I can start using it! (confession: I have almost no faith that I'll O on my own to get KU.
