Re: opk question
LOL That's why I usually use FMU, even though technically you're not supposed to.
I'm lucky if I can hold it for 40 mins sometimes

Re: opk question
I don't know if I actually wait the 4 hours but I time my OPK around 2pm and I have always gotten accurate readings.. I usually don't drink a good amount of water like I should so maybe that's why?

Re: opk question
I've read that if you use FMU you might miss your surge because it often happens in the morning and won't register until later in the day. Any truth to this? Seems like FMU has worked for you girls, maybe I should try it.

Re: opk question
The instructions say
YOU CAN TEST ANY TIME OF DAY,BUT IT SHOULD BE AT THE SAME TIME EACH DAY (MANY WOMEN FIND IT MOST CONVENIENT FIRST THING IN THE MORNING) IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU HAVE NOT URINATED FOR AT LEAST 4 HOURS BEFORE TESTING, AND YOU SHOULD AVOID EXCESSIVE FLUID INTAKE BEFORE TESTING.

HAAAA...I'm doing that right now...holding it. Actually it has been 4 hours now. I'm a teacher so I'm used to holding it....good luck. I try to use OPKs after work. I usually get home by 5 and do it then. When it gets closer to O I try to test twice if I can. Good luck.

Re: opk question
I've never held it for four hours and still have gotten smileys. I usually do about 3 hours, 3.5 on a good day.
