So the CB ones are better???? thanks smiley, i think il try them next month, im TTC since Dec and ive been using the "we see if it happens" approach but i might just need a little helping hand lol

 

[kezzaside]

Good luck smiley, good luck guest Xx

I'm trying them out in about a weeks time, bought the kit, 7 ov tests and 1 digi preg test. Can I just ask .. I used a online ovulation calculator and app on my phone and it says 27th June ovulating. When do I use the ovulation tests? Xx don't want to waste £19 lol

Yep in my opinion. They are quite a lot more expensive though which is why I was still using the IC ones up until I was getting close to O day - then I backed them up with the CB ones. I came off the pill in December as well, and was using the relaxed it will happen when it happens approach - but after Jan I was getting too impatient

Thanks Kezzaside - Good luck to you too x

I think your suppose to start POAS on cd5 if im correct Kezza?????

 

[kezzaside]

I get confused with what calendar days mean? Sorry new to all this. I finished my AF Sunday ...

 

[smiley330]

What CD are you on Kezza? / How long is your cycle? I've been following SMEP as well which says to start testing on CD10 (if anyone is interested have a look at our thread, everyone there is lovely) But I only got my + on CD18, I was also testing morning and evening (bit of a poas problem) from about CD15.

But it totally depends, if your cycle is shorter then you should start using the tests sooner! (Sorry, not the most helpful answer)

CD1 is the first day of a full flow period Kezza i know its so confusing....... Does the OPKs not come with instructions?????

Smiley i think im the same, the relxed approach is NOT working anymore lol!

It's so frustrating! I started this journey all dignified and relaxed, now I've succumbed to trying whatever I hear of in the hope it will help our efforts!! Never mind, we will all get there in the end!!

 

[guest2003]
