I usually do. I am waiting on my stuff to get here. I should scale down my budget for them though. It's not like I am getting pregnant any faster. LOL. I can't wait for my opks to get here though. I need something to pee on!

This month I bought 3 FRERs and 5 dollar store HPTs. I'm already out of dollar store ones with all negatives! So I have to made do with FRERs from now on, I'm thinking that should be enough. I haven't tried OPKs this month but I may try them next month

Ok... I just took inventory and I've got 2 FRER's, 4 IC HPT's & 7 IC OPK's left. So as far as testing supplies go.. I think I'm good.

I know DH said something about buying more Pre-Seed... but he just likes that! HA!!

I would buy OPK's from Walmart every couple months, but I think this is going to be my last month using them. Between CP, CM, temping, and now saliva testing, I think I can pinpoint O just as easily w/o them so I might as well save some money.

Are those saliva ferning tests accurate? I was thinking of buying one if not pregnant this month.

I don't actually have a kit; I have a really old toy microscope that I'd bought years ago and found when I was helping my mom go through my old room. I was out of town last weekend (when my OPK's started getting close to +) so I couldn't do the microscope thing until Monday, but it was definitely ferned (ferning . . . fern-like . . .fernish . . .?) when I got my first +OPK an has stayed that way along with the OPK's. I'll be curious to see if the ferning goes away when my OPK's turn -.

We like the Pre-seed too. This month I bought two boxes because we always run out before the month is through. Yeh, we get pretty busy sometimes. LOL.

Okay for my inventory...

This is what I have.

30 cheapie opks
3 or 4 internet cheapies hpts (they came with the Pre-seed_
2 tubes of Pre-seed
a box of instead soft cups
And I think that is it. I think I used up my last name brand hpts last cycle.

I'm waiting on 20 opks and some preseed from earlypregnancytests.com. I'm really upset, it seems my favorite opk seller (babycreation.com) is no longer selling
