OPKs... which ones? Do you tell your husband about them?

Question

I was considering getting OPKS and trying them out, but do you ladies tell your husband about them or just kinda keep having sex with him and make sure it's around your fertile time and you aren't missing it? I don't think my husband would be very interested in that, or hearing about it. Just looking for some insight from other people's experiences.

Answer

Depends on your husband :) mine doesn't want to know any of it. He thinks it's weird. It bothers me sometimes, and I wish he was different about it. He's supportive in his own ways though.

Answer

My husband and I talk openly about it. We both decided we wanted to TTC and so we both talk about when I'm in my fertile week, when to take a HPT, and when AF decides to show her ugly face. But what works for one couple might not work for another! Talk to your husband and ask if he wants to know or not. He might just surprise you! Good luck to you!

Answer

My husband likes to know, and gets very excited. I use either the Clearview digital opk, or the First Response basic pink lines opk.

Answer

I use a kit from Amazon called Easy @ Home, it's way cheaper than anything I've found at the drugstore and works well for me.

To speak to your other question, my hubs is now all in with me. He has Glow too and tracks with me, asks if I've taken a test that day or if I've had a visit from AF. That hasn't always been the case though, he used to just leave it all to me but I found that too stressful because when we failed each month I felt like it was my fault for doing a bad job at tracking. Now that he helps me and is supportive I'm much happier.

Also, every month I dream of when we could announce if we got pregnant this cycle and how we would do it. Before I would keep it to myself because he used to make fun of how cheesy they were but now I openly tell him. He still makes fun of me sometimes but it's more like "that's just too cheesy!" And laughter as opposed to annoyance.

Answer

I just recently bought this accuMed opk and pregnancy test combo pack and love them! They're super cheap and I just ordered them off of amazon. My boyfriend loves knowing when I'm ovulating he gets more excited than me waiting to see how dark the lines get and is constantly asking what the results were! But if you think your dh might get stressed out by knowing you may want to just keep it to yourself!
