OPK question
im supposed to get AF next week (this will be my 3rd cycle of us TTC). i want to start using OPK's next cycle.
question: do you start on the day of your period or the day your period ends?
just need to know when i should go out and buy the kit.
thanks!

Re: OPK question
It depends on how long your cycle is. My cycle is 28-29 days long so I start early and test at CD 10 which is 10 days into my cycle. Your cycle starts day 1 of your menstrual.
Just editing because you usually O in the middle of your cycle I am just so afraid of missing when I ovulate that I start testing really early. You don't have to test this early.

Sorry, i hit Enter on accident.
I just purchased the Clear Blue Digital. I would recommned digital only... the lines/strip tests can be confusing because of the color of the line compared to the test line...etc...
I got a 20pk of opks on amazon for $35
