Digital might be the way to go, i'm still not getting much change in CM Ph using the strips. Doesn't even look like it changes at all really.

(ok I hope I used quote good...no clue how to do it)
So same for me I use PH paper strips and the color never change.Problem is there is no color like the stip on the chart! So I have no clue about my Ph...Im thinking to get a digital just in case I would ttc ;P so the Hanna still good or which would be best to test CM Ph?

Right that's why I think we need a digital PH tester!

My strips have 2 colours that are meant to change, even if they do slightly they don't match up to the ones on the chart....i think i'm not going to bother with it until i'm ovulation.

I think waiting till ovulation is probably best anyway because prior to the appearance of the EWCM all you're doing is testing vaginal secretions, which are by their nature more acidic.

That is a lot like the one I have..... makes it easy to test thing in a cup. I have found that I only need to calibrate every 10-14 days and that is very easy. Just be careful when cleaning because you dont want water running to the top, some warm almost hot water in a cup works and then use the cleaner and re-cal every week. When you test your cm it is a little tricky but I wipe it on a small plastic stick and put that to the ph meter and it works.

I have had mine for a month and love it over all.
