I think dh has bought me a HPT before but never OPKs. He has driven me all over town to three different stores looking for OPKs before though. I think that should count for something. And he does by my pads and tampons for me sometimes so I think he does okay. But, I don't really trust him to get the right HPT so I would prefer to buy them myself even if he would do it.

Nope. He doesn't even know I use them.

Actually he doesn't know a whole lot about my cycles. Unless he wants sex during it, I don't even tell him when I'm on my period. We were driving though town the other day talking about some other girl that's pregnant and he said, "I was just thinking this morning that you haven't had a period in a while." So I had to tell him that a) I wouldn't skip a period w/o knowing it because I keep good track of my cycles and b) I don't like to readily announce when I'm on my period (for some reason, my mom always likes to tell me when she's on hers and that's something I really don't care to know).

I do think that it was kind of cute of him to bring it up, though. At least he's somewhat paying attention to things.

DF got my opks from ebay last week, but that's because my paypal account is canadian so they would have sent them there instead here. I'm sure he would get them in the store if I asked him to, but we always go shopping together so I just get them

We always do our shopping together too... so yeah, he's there and pays for them... but I pick them out.

He has no problems buying pads, tampons, etc... So if I were to send him out for OPK's or HPT's I know he'd get them without any fuss.

Heck, there were months years ago when he knew when AF was due better than I did!! Now when talking with people about TTC, which he can't seem to help himself from doing, he drops terms like "dpo" & "triphasic".

He's so awesome!

He knows everything about my cycle and TTC but he hasn't bought me a test before. i think he would if I asked him to but I never have. We always shop together and he's been there when I get them almost everytime.

He hasn't bought me pads or tampons yet either. I should make him.. haha

You need to just bottle him up and start marketing him. He sounds like a great hubby!

Funny. My hubby gets the one that is the cheapest. But, I really don't care what kind of milk I drink so it doesn't bother me. I do care about the test I get though. I wouldn't trust him because he would do just like the milk and get the one that was the cheapest.

Definitely need to make him do this. It's like a dh initiation. LMBO.
