i ordered their pregnancy tests on a Saturday, and they were in my mail box the following Thursday! So you should have them in less than a week  They come from a Canada address in a normal envelope. ------------- DD 4yrs DS 2yrs http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Cool, so I ordered some on Tuesday so I should hopefully have them this week - just in time for ovulation.
I have never used OPK's before - anyone got any good advice? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Interesting! Thank you for all that info.
So if I ovulated on day 14 on my first round and day 16 on my second..... should I start taking them around day 10ish? When you get a positive one, how long after generally will you ovulate? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Also, as you get close to ovulating, (if you have enough) use them a couple of times a day.
I didn't know about using them in the afternoon, but the day before I ovulated I tested at 10am, 3pm, and 8pm, and the 3pm one was the only positive. So I think it can be worth using a couple a day to make sure you see the surge. ------------- http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/" rel="nofollow">

Ok, my tests arrived today but no instructions.
Is the control line the line closest to the top or bottom? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

How many time a day do you girls test?

They do say afternoon is best. I know the day I got the surge last month I tested 10am, 3pm and 8pm, and only the 3pm OPK actually picked it up. So I think if you did wait till 8pm you might miss it. ------------- http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/" rel="nofollow">
