Re: clearblue easy ovulation kits???
If you are talking about the clearblue easy digitals .... then you are only suppose to test once a day. I have gone through a bunch of boxes because I have an extremely long cycle, however of you have a normal cycle you only really need to purchase on box at a time.

I bought two boxes of CBE opks this month (at 40.00 per box of SEVEN), and for the first time I was able to detect ovulation. They are very pricey, but worth every penny because they are extremely accurate. I bought the CBEFM a few months ago, and to this day I don't know how to work it. It's brand new, sitting in a drawer with a box of sticks to go with it.
Once I get my BFP (hopefully soon!), I'd be glad to sell it for a MUCH cheaper price if you'd like it. The monitor is around 130.00 and the sticks are about 30.00.

SOOO SOOO SOOO much more accurate! I was getting really upset trying to detect ovulation using the control/test line method. There's no mistaking that smiley face!

Definately use the smiley,digital ones. I had such a hard time interpreting the ones with the lines.
I would suggest testing on day 7 and going from there. I found out that I ovulated early, this way. Definately helped me get pg this time. They are expensive, but take the guess work out.
Good Luck
p.s. only test 1x a day, otherwise you can drive yourself crazy...I know I did!

Yeah, I second the CBE OPKS. I CLEARLY got a - on the Rite Aid brand, which I thought was strange because I'd been seeing EWCM. I went and splurged on the digital and I was right- I got a .

Yes, the CBE Digitals are the way to go despite the cost. However I do want to mention that if you can get them in Target they are $30 for the 7 sticks instead of $40 everywhere else like CVS etc.
