CBE Ovulation Sticks
I just started to use the CBE Ovulation Sticks (the ones that show a  when you are ovulating) and I feel like waiting till 2pm every day is giving me anxiety...Did anyone just use FMU to test? I know LH surge peaks at 2pm so thats why i was waiting till then to pee but I am sooo focused on holding my pee from 10-2 and i am constantly looking at the clock to see what time it is and i can't drink my water all day! I seriously think I will drive myself crazy with these tests especially since my cycle is usually 40 days+. Help! TIA!

Re: CBE Ovulation Sticks
Dont worry about all that.
I use them. I take the test when I get home with what pee is there.
IMHO dont drive yourslef crazy with holding it. Just take it in the afternoon when you have to go.
This is my opinion and what I do. I cant speak that its the "right" thing and dont want to give bad advice.
But I think the surge will be there even if you DONT hold it. It has always worked for me that way.

Re: CBE Ovulation Sticks
you can use FMU. You will catch the surge in the middle. If you want to know the start then I suggest doign the afternoon.
I have to know the start cause Im doing IUIs.
But I dotn hold 4 hrs. I go the bathroom at about 4ish.....dont drink anything and then test when I get home from work around 630 pm.....has always worked for me.
