So since my AF arrived:thumbsdown: , looks like I need to be checking on my O time! I was wondering what OPK's you ladies use? I am looking at them and not sure what is best or even what seems to predict it best.
Any suggestions on how you figure out ovulation would help!!:thumbsup:

I have been temping for a few months now and that is a good way to find out what time of the month you O. I also have some OPK in the mail just waiting for them to arrive so that I can start using them, you can get them off ebay I got 20 for $12. It's alot cheaper than a chemist.
Have you signed up with Fertility Friend??

Hi danger kitty :wave:
I bought my OPK's from ebay the brand is OVUNOW. I am using them for the second time/month i still havent got a positive and i think they dont work for some women but work great for others.
I hope that they work for you :fingerscrossed: good luck.

Hi dangerkitty
Ive used the ovunow b4 and the fortel, i found the ovunow didnt work for me,never got a positive, and the fortel I got positives for the last 3 mths (except this month didnt use them).
I figured im not wasting money on them anymore cause every month ive used them i dont fall preggas anyway. Im just gonna try BD every 2 days after AF leaves and hope for the best! Goodluck with what brand you choose to use and for a :bfp: on that HPT when it gets to that time.
I used OPK's to fall with Kailah. I got them from from lullabyconceptions They are cheap and very helpful there.
Best of luck!:fingerscrossed:

goodluck :fingerscrossed:
this is my 2nd packet and its working allready again!!
I'm using Fortel 'forelife' from Coles. $22 a packet and you get 5 tests and 3 free pregnancy tests. I've had no problems with this brand at all.
Highly recommend it!

Get a BBT and start temping!
OPKs get rediculously expensive ($20+ per month and you could be at it for quite a while, like me, almost 2 yrs last time!) so a once off payment for a BBT is money better spent and tells you MUCH more about your cycle.
have a look on the site I suggested.
I purchased 4 months worth of OPK's and they came with 10-15 pg tests... all up it cost me about $50 incl postage.
They just aren't packaged all pretty like thge chemist bought ones.

I also got the Ovunow from ebay from Fertility Naturopath. They are so much cheaper that the ones at coles and have worked well for me. I was charting my temps but got a little fed up with it

Hi DangerKitty
A little while ago I did some research into finding out if all OPK's are created equal, and was very surprised with the results I'll post the link as it might help with when to test and heaps of other info
good luck:fingerscrossed:
