CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
I use CBE OPK smiley tests every month. I see many using the FM but it's so expensive! Is it a better test than the smiley opk's? I am considering it if it is worth it.

I like it because you only use it once in the morning with FMU and that's it. I got a used one for half the price on ebay.

Re: CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
I think it's definitely worth the money! I also use dollar store OPK's in conjuction with it though. It worked once for me (on first month of trying with it) and so I am hoping it works again :)

Re: CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
So it tracks your days as your peaking to ovulation? I know the smiley OPK just tracks the surge.

Yes, as you use it , it will "get to know" you. In the beginning you will be testing a lot but after about e second/third month not so much. It will give you high and peak days which you will want to

It tells you WHEN you are about to ovulate. Usually within 24 hours of your peak!

Re: CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
Usually my high days coincided with CM. And my peaks days coincided with OPKs. For me it didn't give any extra information.

Re: CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
I've been following your story and my personal opinion is that if you've been TTC for a while and have been using OPKs it's probably time to move onto an RE. I would save your money and let them figure out what's going on. If you're getting +OPKs and BDing accordingly, there isn't much more that the FM is going to help you with.

This is what DH just told me lol Yes, we are meeting with both OB and a RE consult in a few weeks. I think I'm tracking everything well- I just have to let go and see what my issue is. Thx!

Re: CBE FM vs. CBE OPK
I swear by the CBEFM. Always accurate. It's all I used this go around and I am 29 wks pregnant. I got mine cheaper (brand new) on eBay.
