OPK tests

[greeny506]

Currently on cycle 2 and using OPK tests. My line seems to have faded since yesterday despite according to Flo, not due ovulation until Thursday. We DTD Sunday night and last night. Was planning to just do every other day until the weekend! Any advice?! Thanks

Your LH surge, that this tests for, happens 24-48 hours before you ovulate, and can be pretty short lived. So a positive test yesterday and negative today makes sense for Thursday ovulation. You want the sperm to be there waiting for the egg rather than trying to meet it, so if you can DTD today and tomorrow you should cover it.

Thanks! Yesterday's did not seem as dark as the control line so wasn't sure if positive but thought that it would get more positive today. Have noted EWCM today so presume it's coming and possible defunct test this AM?! Will DTD tonight and tomorrow anyway :)

Just done another test and seems to be getting darker again!?! I think my tests yesterday weren't so good as the first was with FMU which I wasn't aware made a difference (but apparently it does!) and the second was only a couple of hours hold. Will just keep going and presumably DTD every other day...!!! Any advice!? Thanks
