    Hiya,



    I got the OPK (Ovulation Prediction kits) from ebay, 50 was about ??6 or something cheap so I was happy to pay this cheap amount as coinciding with the clear blue fertility monitor.



    I also got 20 preganacy tests for about ??4 or something daft... only cheapy ones but perfect for little miss obsessive tester like me!!! :lol:

    The cheapy tests will be a way to fund my new addiction! :lol:



    If a positive came up or I was late having a period I would buy a clear blue digital one.

    Hiya!!



    Good luck with the cbfm...I used mine with my previous pregnancies and it worked well - last time was pure surprise as we werent really trying.



    I still have my cbfm but not going to use until early next year if i dont get bfp before then. Going to stick with cheap ov test sticks that I got from amazon as they work just as well. They just dont really tell you when the egg is being released, but gives you a 12-36 hour window when to get cracking lol.



    Good luck ladies with testing next week xx

    Hiya yrose, I just used my cbfm last time never usually use opks so dont know how they are gonna work but cbfm sticks are so expensive and i missed out the beginning of my cycle this time round as we only really decided to go for it this month on cd9 so we shall see. If no joy I will use the cbfm again as I do have a pack of sticks in the bathroom ready to go!! lol xx

    Hiya!



    Loved using my cbfm and it showed i dont ov all the time though as I found out beginning of this year that I have pcos...only found out at a scan following my ectopic.



    It was great for timing though and we caught twice when using it, the last time (the ectopic) was a bfp surprise as we werent trying - my birthday celebrations ended well lol..



    Think the cbfm is the greatest invention ever!



    Baby dust to everyone xx
