New Opk
Posted: 02-22-07 20:46pm

I gotta share my thoughts on the opk that I'm using this month. It is the clear blue easy digital. The previous four months, I used Answer 20. The clear blue easy is much more expensive, but I feel like it is more accurate and it's easier to read. It displays a happy face if it detects an LH surge and a circle with no LH surge. The box claims that you can use it any time of the day even fmu, so I use fmu because it is more convenient.

This month, my detected LH surge seems in line with changes in my cm even though I'm using fmu. With the Answer 20, I would get a positive with fmu but not later in the day, plus the fmu result would always be a day late. It was frustrating because I felt like I had to take a weak result as a positive even though the package said not to. The only strong positives I ever got with Answer 20 were using fmu.

There is no interpreting the lines with the clear blue easy. It's either a happy face or its not. I think I o'ed today because I had a positive yesterday and one today. We'll see if my temp increases tomorrow. If it doesn't, we'll get one more chance. Smile

BTW, I'm getting hammered at work, so I probably won't be able to post much during my 2ww.

Yup, I'm on my 2ww. My temp increased yesterday, so I had two positives with fmu before the temp increase. Plus I only used 4 of the 7 tests, so I have left overs to use next month if I'm not pregnant. I figure that means two kits could last about three months. Even though my cycles vary by more than 3 days, I was able to time starting the tests to my cm. I definitely feel better about opk now.
