for starters, the update.. you all know I miscarried, or so we thought i was.. but it did happen.. and on Monday my HCG was down to 2.. which is when the bleeding started.. we are doing okay and just ready to move on!

so with that said, because i had a faulty digital (the digital that said yes, but the clock never left the screen), i got a free product's coupon up to $40.. so i figured i'd buy a ovulation kit from FRER.. they have a digital kit, and then reg line kit... anyone have any experience with one of these, or both??
i was thinking about getting the Line ones.. but i just have troubles trusting the digital aspect lol.. so i like to see for myself the line actually getting darker, or be as dark.. etc.. but was curious if anyone had any recommendations on either of the two, or if you liked both.. etc!

I would go with the lines as I too like to see the lines instead of the digital. The digital ones are good because then you don't have to wonder if it's positive or not but I would rather see the progression.

I actually use the wondfo brand for OPK's because I like to use them twice daily and they are cheaper and work great. The only OPK's that I would defiantly not recommend are the ones from early-pregnancy-tests.com and only because I had quite a few bad batches with them.

Here are the ones I use:

i would have norm gone with wondfo for the OPKs.. but since i had a free product for FRER up to $40.. i figured i'd use it on the OPKs from FRER since they are like $35 for the kit... i'd hate to use the free product up to $40 on a box of HPT when those only cost $15-20 LOL... im weird i guess i know!

but i think i will get the wondfo's as well.. prob just the 20ct and take one each every day.. so twice a day

I think that's a good idea So you are going to actively try now? I know you said you weren't sure you would.

no we wont actively try i dont think.. just NTNP.. which to me is still TTC LOL but we wont be like "omg, we HAVE to DTD today it's my fertile day" we arent gona be real serious about it.. if it happens, it happens, if it doesnt, then it doesnt... but i just like knowing where my cycle is at, especially after a loss so im not wondering what the heck is going on lol
