I have been using the ones from baby4you as well. They are the only ones I have tried but I'm happy with them!]]> Tue, 14 Jan 2014 15:42:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5858664&title=hpts-and-opks#5858664 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5858364&title=hpts-and-opks#5858364 Author: miss_bling

I use this seller on eBay in the UK. http://stores.ebay.com.au/klackstar
Takes about two weeks for delivery is the only thing but cheaper than anything I've seen here especially for hpt's.
Opks work well. Hpts hard to tell but assume they're good too- I haven't had a reason to test so far :)]]> Sat, 11 Jan 2014 08:05:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5858364&title=hpts-and-opks#5858364 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5858288&title=hpts-and-opks#5858288 Author: Oxy

Good idea a.girl I'm sure this will be a helpful thread to many

I have always used the OPK's from baby4you and find them great. I get the fade in affect which is helpful. Plus like tinka I test twice a day as it gets darker to really catch the surge so at 11am and then again at 5pm.

I have always wondered about the HPT's and have been a great fan of the midstream first response ones as i have found they are the most sensitive. Have picked up a faint line at 8DPO before when a clearblue digital didn't pick anything up at all.
However, two years into testing each month I've decided it's extremely costly so today ordered some internet cheapies from ebay uk. Figure if i'm pregnant it's gonna show on those tests, and will be happy to back it up with one FR LOL But, I searched everywhere for internet cheap HcG tests and couldn't find them anywhere so if anyone is looking - try ebay uk. I ordered 30 and it cost around $13 with delivery ]]> Mon, 19 Aug 2013 20:23:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5846136&title=hpts-and-opks#5846136 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5846108&title=hpts-and-opks#5846108 Author: TinkaElle

If you're not worried about cost or wanting to confirm a line test if you're not sure, the digital ones are great as they give a definitive answer. Also I found testing twice a day really helpful for me as my surge happened at different times of the day on a couple different cycles so had I not been testing twice a day I would have missed the beginning of it e.g this month last been my surge began late Saturday (around 5pm), if I'd only tested mid morning I wouldn't have know that. Probably different for everyone? But thats my 2 cents ]]> Mon, 19 Aug 2013 17:24:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5846108&title=hpts-and-opks#5846108 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5846096&title=hpts-and-opks#5846096 Author: a.girl

Hi Everyone. I just wanted to start a separate thread for this topic. There's been a lot of talk about opks and HPTs (where to buy them, which ones work, etc) in all the other threads, but I thought it would be nice to have a thread dedicated to this so the newbies (or just those of us wanting new ideas) can find the info easier than trawling through hundreds of pages.

Anyway... I just got a +OPK today (yippeee!!!) and have been experimenting with different brands. Here's what I found:

The ones from babyworks.co.nz work the best. The midstream ones are heaps easier on the go and gave me a more clear 2nd line. The test strips from the same website (green label) worked quite well, too. However, I found them not as clear as the midstream ones (lines not as consistent, etc).

I also tried some from trademe, they had a blue label and looked like they came from Asia. THEY DID NOT WORK. I did heaps of tests with them and all were negative when the others were positive.

Hope this info helps for those who are new to OPKing. Please add your comments and questions so we can build up a nice little resource for the newbies.]]> Mon, 19 Aug 2013 15:48:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43522&PID=5846096&title=hpts-and-opks#5846096
