A good way to determine if this is the first HTTP request on a TCP session or a later one is to insert a cookie into the stream. If you receive it back then it is not the first request.
Slightly confused what you mean about monitors and what you actually want to achieve though
BigIP will do this out of the box with session persistence. Choose from IP, Cookie or if you're feeling adventurous you can design the persistence method yourself with an iRule.
Determining whether the connection is a new session or a new connection for the existing session is reasonably protocol dependent (Except where you do something like assume a 1:1 relationship between IP and client and persist at the source IP level of course)
