I posted on Friday and ppl were saying that the line on the OPK needed to be darker. I know I havent included Saturday's but it was much like Sundays. Today's and Sundays are lighter so have I ovulate, even though Fridays line wasn't very dark??

Are you only testing once a day? Once the opk gets as dark as the Friday one you should be testing multiple times a day to catch it.

You may have missed the surge but it's hard to say now 🤷‍♀️

It's hard to tell tbh. When my turns positive it goes (within the space of a day) from lighter than the control, to equally as dark as control line and then finally it will be darker than the control line. When it's darker I know its a positive. I do tend to test twice or more a day when I can see that LH is beginning to ramp up though

Thank you for your responses, it's my first time using opks. I tested again Friday evening but it was no different from the previous one on Friday and then when I tested Saturday (it was the afternoon though) it was lighter. Will try more then once a day next month when I start to see it darkening and hopefully I'll catch it. Thanks again x

Are you testing at roughly the same time everyday and limiting fluids beforehand? It was my first month using opk’s too and I definitely noticed a difference when i’d drunk lots beforehand. As others have said test twice a day once it starts to darken, I used the Premom app to help me as I didn’t really know what I was doing when I started lol
