Mine say to use them between 10am and 8pm and make sure not to drink too much for the 2 hours beforehand, so your wee isn't diluted.

also dip the stick a second or two longer, to give the dye a good chance to move up.

Have a look on ebay for internet cheapies, so you can test til your hearts content!! (they are about $8 for say 20 odd?)

Thanks ladies i think i will have to order the internet cheapies cause they are so expensive.

I use the Internet cheapies. This was my first month, they worked perfectly

Do you get them off ebay? Are you finding you are getting a positive on your test the same day each month? I have a 28 day cycle and this arvo the test line finally had some colour but not as dark as control im surprised its now day 17.

I got mine off eBay. Fertility2family. First month, so not sure if it will be same each month. Hopefully I'll get my BFP and won't find out next month. Since stopping pill 3 mths ago, my cycles have a bit all over the place.

have you recently come off the pill?? you could be missing your surge - i used to test in the afternoons around 5ish. and yes internet cheapies are heaps cheaper, and you get them in bulk aswell, so you can test a few times a day without spending a fortune.

Definitely go for the internet cheapies. The surge in the hormone that you are testing for apparently happens after you wake up, so testing first thing in the morning isn't any good. So, if you've got enough strips some of the reading I found said try & test at 2pm & 8pm. Not a bad idea, in case you can't test at one of those times (eg. a toddler hanging around you in the bathroom!) and then you don't miss the whole day.

Does anyone have a link to the Ovulation Kits by Fertility2family on the ebay website? I tried to search for businesses under that name but nothing came up. Thanks
