Stupid opks already stressing me out and wish I hadn't bothered :(

I promised myself we would embark on the ttc journey in a relaxed way and take it from there. But I can't relax about anything and decided to use opks straight away and they're already stressing me out :( Can anyone offer some words of support or help?

cd8 - nothing
cd9 - nothing
cd10 - faint line
cd11 (today) - even fainter line

So what should I make of that?? Yesterday I was positive, today I'm feeling much less so!

Just to say you might want to try POAS twice a day, as it might be that you surged overnight on days 9/10. I found that I always got strongest results in the morning, even though it tells you not to test then - everyone is different.

But as blueamber says it is only on CD11 so give it a chance.

im a bit anti opks since having a positive smiley one and no ovulation!

i think they get you in more of a tizz than just reading your body for symptoms and even then, they arent always right!

Was going to say! - I didn't know you always have some LH in your system, so I'm glad I asked now! Thanks for your response.

You always have some LH in your system, so faint lines mean absolutely nothing! Wait until you get a strong positive. You're only on cd11!

If it's stressing you out, ditch them and just dtd every other day.
