Hi all
I'm considering using OPKs this month, TTC #1. Can anyone give me some recommendations? I don't want to spend loads and want the POAS kind rather than the dipper things!!
Thank youGrin

Ooh - I can't help sadly, but following!

I was going to buy the cheapies from Amazon but not sure if they're worth the money.

I found the cheap supermarket own brand one's didn't work for me. I use the Clear Blue & would recommend although they are a bit pricey but I tend to look on the Internet to find out where they are cheaper.

Thanks for replies so far! I was tempted with supermarket cheapies, anyone else have any experience with them? Haven't seen any sticks on Amazon, just the strip things.
How accurate are the CB ones? If its not the day, is that it? Or do they give u an indication its near? Sorry I'm not clued up about them!n Blush

Although it's annoyingly expensive we used the CBFB and got pregnant first month. Had been TTC for 18 mths. Never had a single positive on either eBay cheapie or cb opk's.

Is worth money if works for you. Look on amazon for deals, or Boots occasionally discount.

I've got a CBFM but I also got some Tesco own brand sticks so I could test twice a day and they reflected the results of the monitor exactly. We're ttc after a laaaaarge gap of over 11 years and there is so much more available in terms of fertility awareness now!
