  If you are using a CBEFM, do you test FMU as it suggests and then use an opk later in the day at all? I am thinking I might need to do that based on last cycle, but I really am sick of? trying to figure out the opk readings. Hate those so called lines that might or might not be the same or darker!!

  ?I used CBEFM b/c it took FMU (didn't want to mess w/ not peeing for 4 hours, etc.).

  If I got a peak I'd usually follow up w/ an OPK with that same urine (I p'd in cup) but after a few months I trusted the monitor. It definitely showed me when I was ovulating but I discovered it was WAY late in my cycle so I sought help w/ getting pregnant.

  Good luck, I know how frustrating it all is.?

  I also used the CBEFM and then backed up with an OPK in the afternoon.  For the CBEFM I used FMU and the OPK I used afternoon pee.  Also, because I was using the monitor I would use digital OPKs on peak days to confirm.  This way I wasn't having to use so many as they were more expensive than the others but way easier to read than determining the darkness of a line.
