What is the best OV test strips?

[theshoegal]

I have used the First Response fertility strips and the lines that need to match are so hard to read. Sometimes the color looks to match and other times it doesn't. I have seen that ClearBlue offers the digital smiley face one, but much more expensive. Anyone care to share their reviews on these?

I have also never used the digital ones. I am inherently cheap, I can't help it. This month I have used answer brand ones, that you get 20 strips instead of 7 tests. They only last 30 days from when you open them, but for me, that was a good thing. It made me continue to use them after I figured I had missed the surge and was outta luck. This morning I got a positive-first one in many months of using other kinds with no positive. I apparently ovulate late and have a shorter luteral phase, which is all news to me!
Good luck.

Hey shoegal! I've never tried the digital ones, but it I guess it can't be more clear than getting a smiley face. But ms320 had a pretty good idea here a couple of days ago. Since the digital tests are so much more expensive, she would use regular OPKs until O and then a digital one if she needed to confirm. I though that was a prety good idea, so I though I'd pass it on...
