My Favorite OPK Brand

Clear Blue Easy Digital

When I first began tracking my cycles, that is, when we were toying with the idea of having a baby, I bought about 100 of those cheap internet brand OPKs on Amazon.com. I used them for almost a year and had so many frustrating moments trying to decide if that stupid pink line was dark enough to be considered positive or not! While they were cheap, they weren't the most reliable or very good at helping find your peak LH level.

Drawing a line

Today I made a big decision. I've decided to stop talking about my infertility at work. The tension I feel when co-workers are waiting to hear how a procedure went, and when I'll be taking a pregnancy test is just too much to bare. One issue is I'm friends with several co-workers so it makes not talking about infertility really difficult since it is a big focus in my life right now. After my first IUI I realized that after talking to one person about that was enough for all sorts of people to know what's going on with me. Where I work gossip spreads like wildfire. There really isn't anyone I can trust to keep the information in confidence. I think it will be the healthiest thing for me to find my support outside of work.
