Re: OK girls ...
AF arrived on Oct 25th which was CD1. I am at CD5 now. I am gong to use OPK's. Last month I tried the non digital to see how they worked but I think Im going to buy the digitals this month so it's easier and not so stressful with the lines for me. and maybeamommy, I want to be agressive!!!

Re: OK girls ...
ITA with Deanna.
Start on CD 8 - but keep in mind that you may need more than 1 box of OPKs this month while you figure out your cycle.
You'll want to test every afternoon between 2 and 8 pm after having held in your urine for 4 hours.
BD every other day when you start with the OPKs, until you get a +OPK. Then BD that day and the following 3 days!
Expect AF to come roughly 16-17 days after your +OPK.

yea its true.. since you are taking them early at CD8.. you might need 2...but only get 1 for now... if you HAVE to ... buy the 2nd one when you really need it !!
