What is the best ovulation Kit to use?

Posted by on Feb. 25, 2009 at 1:33 PM

Allright, I have decided to break down and buy an ovulation kit.  I have never used one before because we got preggo with each of my boys in the first month of trying.  We are now in month number 5 of trying with this one and apparently I need help.  I was wondering what type of kits y'all have used and which ones work well, or not, and how easy they are.  Thanks ahead of time for all of your help.

I liked the 20 pack Answer test strips. They were affordable and after the 2nd month using them, we got preggers!! Before we used the calendar and it didn't work.

 The answer brand does not work for me. I get like 7 pos. lol but the clear blue ones work great and arent that much more expensive! you can get a pack of 7 for 20.00 at walmart and sometimes you get a free digital preg. test!

I used the Answer 20 pack strips and they didn't work well for me personally.  I got multiple positives.  I realize they say not to test after you get a positive, but I figured since they are only good for 1 month after opening, I should use them.  I have gotten positives everyday since CD17.  We have decided that if I'm not pregnant this month, we aren't going to use the OPK's anymore.  However, I've heard a lot of people really like them!  GL either way!

I like the digital one... Clearblue I believe. It gives a smiley face if you are ovulating and a blank circle if not. I have a hard time reading the lines on the others.

I have and use an Ovacue FM. I love it because you don't have to even buy strips or anything like that and you don't test your pee. Its a little like the CBEFM but you put a sensor on your tongue every morning before you get out of bed and it will tell you about 4 days before you O when your peek is. If you get the V wand with it the ovacue can confirm your Oing.

WOW, I have never heard of that.  I wonder how it works.
