Hi there, I have the IGIA one, did not want to spend the price of the maybe baby. Have used it for a few days & should be coming up to O soon so hoping I will see changes on it. At moment it has nothing, so not sure if I am putting enought on it, was told to lick it, maybe need more. Any advise?????

Jazzy, with mine I get a "blob" of spit on my finger and put it on making sure it doesn't just centre on the middle of the glass... make sure it's an even layer.
Don't know if it helps!
For me, it was trial and error type stuff... if I knew it was coming up O time then I'd do it a couple of times to see if more or less actually gave a result.
Good luck!
ETA: I have an IGIA too

Thanks wishin41.
This is the first cycle I have used it so am not sure if doing it right. So If anyone can help with my silly questions that would be great.
At the moment I see nothing. When do you start to see a change? Should be O anyday, but not sure, and hoping for a girl.

OMG wat a cool idea, to look at sperm..........be cheaper than getting SA done. I can see for myself if my DHs drinking and smoking has indeed affected his swimmers.........i almost cant wait to go home and try this out!!!!!
My saliva tester is confusing. but now i have a better idea when im OV with doing temps aswell im hoping that i can pin point day of full ferning as well as using temps etc......

Told DH about the other use for my tester, & he was so keen on trying it, but told him he has to wait cause don't want to wast the rest of them, haha. Now he is worried they may not be as active as they should be
Oh the pressure.
