Which OPK brand do you use?

I have been lurking but have not officially joined this board. I am TTC#2 and am on my 3rd month so I decided to start OPKs and temping this month.

So my question is which brand to buy?

i use the Target one. It's the cheapest i've found (and when you may need more than 1 box a month, cheap is GOOD) and it works for me.

i always use the CBE digitals... you get a clear cut answer with yes or no.. they are a little expensive. but its worth it to me.. i hate reading the lines..

ya know what though - i was just thinking about this...

i will ALWAYS use the line ones - because at least with those - you can see a clear....it's coming pattern...ya know?

You progressively see no line to a light line to a DARK line....so you know SOMETHING is on the way....

lol... we always talk about this..haha

i just feel that i dont need to see it coming... for me.. i always O around the 14th or 15th day.. so i know its coming.. and with the EWCM.. thats another inidicator... so for me using the digitals i find it easier to determine..

but i can totally see how you feel about the lines.. Chat Icon

i could be wrong - but i want to say the Target brand is $14.99 - i could be wrong and it's $16.99...but it's reliable (i've used them for 4 out of our 6 cycles).

I use the CBE digitals.

They actually do have lines on them too, just the holder "reads" that and gives you a + or -.
