Anyone using Persona to Conceive this month ?

It sounds hopeful Mojomummy! What test are you using? I've heard great reports about Boots own. Maybe try again tomorrow morning? A line is a line though, congratulations!

Norms, I've got a red light today, CD7. I think it's just being careful as it doesn't know/get my cycle yet. I oved too late for it to catch it last month, so it probably thinks it's better to be safe than sorry. I've not told DH it's a red light, as I think we peaked too early on the BDing last month. Stick with it for this month norms and see where it takes you. I've read about a Clear Blue conception monitor you can buy in the states, which is like Persona, made by the same people, but meant especially for ttc. I think Personas problem is that it's supposed to stop pg rather than help it!

Hi I did use one of the test sticks but I think I didn't hold the M button down long enough. I didn't get all the symbols flashing up and did when I reset it. I'm not really trying at the moment just getting ready maybe for christmas BDing so it's not the end of the world that I have abandoned it for this month. Bit miffed at wasting so many sticks but thank goodness I bought three boxes with the same batch number!
Thanks again

Hi All

Peachygirl when you reset did you use one of your tests & hold or did you just press the m button?

Glad the Acupunture went well Strike. I quite fancy it but am already having reflexology & Reiki (nice isn't it Pinewood). Although neither have worked so far the are both really relaxing.

Hi Thanks for the advice Pinewood. I have now successfully reset the machine.I obviously hadn't done it right before and it thought I was the previous owner!
Good luck this month everyone

Hi Mojo, I think there were some needles in my legs too. I didn't look as I wasn't sure if it would make me feel funny. Not sure eactly which areas he was starting with as it was just a starting session to see how I coped! He said he would go away and study the notes he'd taken while we were talking and come up with a plan of attack so to speak! Didn't mention Chicken soup, but next time I do a roast I'll remember to give it a try I had a great yoga lesson today as well so I'm feeling very holistic at the moment

I've not had any re set problems with my Persona yet as I bought it new, but even getting started from that confused me!

The accupucture was great, made me feel a bit floaty and tingly all over. He put needles in my ankles and knees and one in my right hand and one in my abdomen. It didn't hurt, I didn't feel a thing! We had a long chat first and he took my pulses and said I had a few areas that needed work, my Kidneys (which are big in fertility in Chinese Med) and my liver and spleen (sp?) I'm going again next week for a more comprehensive session and he might perscribe some herbs too.

If it works I'll be over the moon, if not then it was still an enjoyable hour of relaxation.

Any news of AF yet Mojo?

Hi Guys - CD7 I think I need to find an accupucturist - sounds lovely! I could ask the holistic therapist I use if she knows someone local but she will probably just say come for a Reiki session with her but it hasn't worked so far!!! Fingers X'd for some BFP's soon.

Peachygirl the 99 M comes up on the Persona when you haven't used it for over 99 days. If you press and hold the M button again after you have done a reset, the Persona maybe resetting itself to it's previous setting?

This is really useful if like me, you think AF is arriving, press the M button, but then it takes another few days to get going properly. Because you can just set it back to your previous count i.e. 29 - hope that makes sense???

Also what time of day did you reset it? If you didn't reset in the morning don't forget about the test window (explains it on the website better than I can!) If you have set it later in the day when you look at if first thing in the morning the orange test light might not be on yet. It should always give you an orange light on day 6.

Hi
I have a persona question.I bought a persona machine off ebay and thought I had reset it but now on day 9 of my cycle (when it says I should be doing a test on the leaflet.) The yellow light has not come on. When I did reset it I kept getting the nummber 99 come up with the flashing M do you think I should abandon it for this month and try to reset it again? Has anyone else experiended somthing similar with a second hand persona?
Thanks

Well you never know till AF arrives, So fingers crossed for you.

Strike that sounds great. Hope it does the trick.

Mojomummy - So could be anytime then. Do you think that you could be, have you any symtoms?

Well I just found a accupucture practitioner down the road from me in a new therapy centre and he's associated to all the right things. I went for a chat and ended up having a treatment! It was great. I feel very relaxed had happy, which has got to be a good thing. Hope it works!

Mojomummy, I haven't managed to find a recommendation for my area yet, although at the gym just now there was a card of a pysiotherapy place near me that also do accupucture and they are recommended by the gum so maybe that'd better than the Mr China chain. Not sure really. Fingers crossed for this month everyone, we need a bfp soon

Hi all

CD17 & got a green light today. So guess we'll have to wait & see although not very hopeful this month.

Mojomummy How long is your cycle normally? Have you had red days since you got the egg sign?

I was just wondering how it would affect results if you do conceive.
