I'd just suggest patience using OPKs on the first cycle and not to throw any "negatives" away, you'll like to have them for comparison when you do suspect a positive result (since OPKs always have 2 lines).

I don't think I could justify spending the money on a fertility monitor when using a combination of other methods works just as well. That's just me personally. I'll certainly give them that they are ultra convenient and eliminates most need for cross-checking fertility signs...but then....wow that's a lot of money...and I really like knowing what my body is up to on any given day anyhow, it's fascinating.
