Which ones are you using lovely?

I have just started using Clearblue digi's and have to use them from CD8 as I have a 25 day cycle.

I'm not sure about the ebay ones so can't comment when to start.
the clearblue digis you test every day from a certain day depending on cycle length.
I test from day 10 coz I usually have a 28 day cycle. The added advantage of using the digi (although they are a little expensive) is that you either have a or you don't... no more "is there a line? - is there not?" frustrations!

with the cheap ones some people use them twice a day so you don't miss your surge. You should use them at least once a day, in the afternoon, after having little to drink and holding your pee for at least 2 hours!

I use CB OPKs and they are really good. I test from CD12 usually and do it every day at about 7pm. You can't wee for 4 hours prior to it, so I'm usually dying for the loo by the time I get to POAS!!!

Hi Mizzi, I also have been using these and will take on board what Tansey recommends this month and do 2 a day to ensure we hit the surge! I just posted this on another post, in case you don't see it shows the dates to test from dependant on your cycle length...

Re varying cycle lengths and when to start testing... (CL=cycle length, T* = begin OPK testing)
