OPK's frustrate the heck out of me so I dont use them! When i did the ones I used were from early-pregnancy-tests.com! I think im just one of those people who can never get a good positive...I always got really faint lines all throughout my cycle!

 I hate the ones with lines. I do use IC's (bought them on Ebay) on the days that I know I won't get a positive but I feel like I *should* be testing. I use clear blue easy digital tests and they have always worked. Well, maybe not last cycle while I was sick, but you know.

Thank you brie_91 for this fabulous siggy!!
Our TTC journey: 6 cycles Clomid, lap surgery/ D&C, IUI, 2 x IVF; 33 cycles- BFN.
IVF#1 (March 2010) Transferred two 8-cell grade A (perfect) embies- BFN and heartbroken.
IVF#2/FET#1 (Jan/Feb 2011):Transferred two (7&8 cell) grade A (PERFECT) embies- BFN again.
March 2011- February 2012: On BCP due to endometriosis.
March 2012- taking a few months off of BCP and we are TTC naturally.
We will re-evaluate another IVF w/FET try in 2013.

I just scored some good deals on ebay, I got a 7 Pack of FR one's for 7.99 with free shipping that don't expire till next fall, and another pack of 7 digital clearblue ovulation ones w/ 6 digital tests for 19.99, also not expired.
But... I still may buy some to hold me over until then. :X I'm really badly wanting it to be this month, more so than usual. with my best friends BFP and with the holidays I want my BFP!

I'm totally the same right now...the holiday season I think will always remind me of the first time I got my BFP and it makes me want it sooooo much more right now. That feeling of finding out I was pregnant at my favorite time of the year, and planning to tell our families on Christmas was the best feeling ive ever had!
