Making Babies for Beginners
Review of Clearblue Ovulation Test by molelover

Advantages: more sticks than average in a pack, easy to use, reliable results
Disadvantages: more expensive than other methods, especially if it takes a while to conceive

...to give them a shot. Clearblue are one of the leading brands, and since pregnancy is not a decision anyone should take lightly, I was willing to invest a little more into a brand I felt I could trust. I figure it’s a time when you are more than willing to take as much advice as anyone can give you and you could be feeling a little vulnerable, so you are probably more likely to go with something that you feel will be reliable and trustworthy, even ...
...all the sticks had gone! Clearblue comes in at £19.99 for a pack, so it’s not the cheapest option, but it’s a little like paying for convenience food: the hard work has all been done for you, you just have to pay a little more to make your life a little easier. And if you are stressed or worried about getting pregnant, chances are you will be willing to do that. Good luck if you are trying! p.s. It worked for me first time! ... Read review

NON-Predictor
Review of Predictor Pregnancy Test by BB23

Advantages: Low Cost
Disadvantages: Not quick to pick up a pregnancy!

...priced test in there, a Predictor at £3.99 (Savers Chemist) I rushed home and did the test and it told me i wasnt pregnant! I was mortified, so i ordered a different brand of internet cheapy from a different supplier on ebay. Sure enough, the next day when they arrived, i took the test and it came back with a blaring positive. I would NOT recommend Predictor for detecting EARLY pregnancy as it is my conclusion the sensitivity is not very high on ...
...very early stages - the Predictor however did not. I have not called them to find out what the sensitivity is, but i also took a Tesco's brand that day and it showed me a very clear positive also- they are sensitive to 25miu so i should imagine Predictor may be as high as 50 or even 100miu. If you have bought or buy this product after being considerably late 1-2 weeks it will probably give and accurate result, but i would say that, from personal ... Read review

First Response Ovulation Kit
Review of First Response Ovulation Kit by AnnieG

Advantages: Ease of use, quick result (1-2 mins)
Disadvantages: Difficult to read

...shade or darker than the first blue line. I got very frustrated as I wasn't ovulating (this was proved by blood tests at my GP's) but still got a faint blue line in the second window and it was quite hard to tell whether this line was classed as "similar" to the other one or not. A better design would be to have a similar function to pregnancy tests in that if NO line appears then you are not ovulating. The tests come with 5 test strips in each pack, ...
...each cycle or you can just use some and then try again next month. They are easy to use, but to be honest I found that taking my temperature and marking it on a chart was a far more effective method and was much easier to read. It depends on each individual person as to how clear the results are. ... Read review

After 15 tests... i got a result!
Review of Clearblue Pregnancy Test Kit by lulu2004

Advantages: Clear blue was clear to read
Disadvantages: it is more expensive

...just sent me the normal Clearblue with the + or - sign. I kept it anyway, and after unpacking the shopping a went to the loo to try again. When I came back up, myself and my hubby waited for the result, I could see nothing, but my hubby was sure he could see a faint line. This was in the evening and the artificial light wasn't helping things. I refused to get excited. My period was due the next day (Christmas Eve) and we would know then. When Christmas ...
...and bought a digital Clear Blue. We tested that night, you know the usual, wee on the absorbent stick and hey presto within 3 minutes of looking at an Egg timer icon we were staring at the word 'PREGNANT' on the LCD screen. What a lovely Christmas present. The Clear Blue digital test said on the box that it could detect pregnancy as early as 4 days before the period was expected, although there was fine print to say that this wasn't in all cases. ...
