Tink's OPK pics

[Tinkerbell3]

I wasn't going to bother posting mine but I todays about an hour ago (hadn't had a drink yet today so not sure how that affects them) and after expecting the line to be darker than last nights it's actually lighter

I chucked all the rest away before the lines started appearing on CD10 as there was nothing on them, and sorry to confuse you all even more even though some say AM none were actually done AM cause i'm never up then so any that say AM were earlier in the day and the PM ones were much later in the evening.
I think last nights was actually the strongest line yet and that was done about midnight (my stupid sleeping pattern)

Also had some pains in my right side during the night that lasted for about 30 mins or so don't know if that was OV pain I guess could have just been trapped wind or something LOL

So here they are, thoughts ladies? I thinking maybe my surge hasn't happened yet? or i just don't get really dark lines because it's strange this morning the line seems to be fading away again, I'll see what happens when I do one tonight

Hello! The 4th one down is the darkest - what CD is that? The light is reflecting and I can't quite see it.
Looks good as the surgey one

Think same as you sunny & can't read the writing either, thought was just me

Sorry ladies I couldn't read it on the photo either, it's CD11 (of 26 day cycles)

Does it make any differance if the lines are thin or as wide as control line?

 

[SunnyGirl]

So that would mean that you surged one day early or your LP is 15 days is that right?
What CD are you now?

They say on the packets that the line has to be as dark as or darker than the control to be a +ve but looking at everyone else's I would say that it's very individual and given that that was your darkest one then that's what your +ves look like

Does the surge happen on the day of OV or day before?
I'm CD13 today, CD1 was 1st Jan so very easy to count this month if the surge happens day before OV so day 11 for surge, then I OV CD12 (y'day).
I'll continue to test for a few days incase it hasn't happened yet but I get a feeling it has due to line being fainter today than last couple of days

Hey tink

You may not OV until like 2/3 days after surge so these days are just as important as the days leading up tk surge

Oh i didn't realise that I thought it was either the day of or day after surge.


I've been charting my temps since i got a thermometer last week, heres my chart incase it's any use http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/32e4aa I don't think will be any good though as I think my sleeping pattern is to rubbish * broken up to chart temps, though i've tried to temp the same time roughly each day.

hey hun, defo the 4th one down so far, the slight line on the side looks like its the same as the control line so its defo there it might be diluted. I made sure i didnt drink much and did it at 6pm. do u do ur FMU?? i would keep testing and see how u go, and defo BD xxx

 

[Tinkerbell3]

I think that could be my problem I didn't stop drinking before doing them and I wee alot anyway, so none of them were really ever done after a few hours of not drinking or having a wee apart from the bottom one which was today after not drinking or emptying my bladder for about 2-3 hours, did another one tonight about 9pm and lines faded away even more looked like the line of top one.
I'll still continue to do them for a couple more days but i think thats it and would sit perfect about the day i expected it, CD11 of a 26 day cycle

says on the CBD tests that you shouldnt wee for 4 hours prior to doing the test

 

[SunnyGirl]

4 hours?? Argh!! Knowing that makes me need a wee. Like the other day when the loos were broken at work and I didn't need to go until I heard that and then I was like OMMMgonnaweeeeemeself.
Ruled by my head, I am!!
xx

 

[Applecider]

yeh im ruled by head too sunny haha

Tink it looks like u had ur surge it was just diluted with water or juice do u leave them for five mins then come back to check them? xx

 

[Nurse 26]

Hey tinkerbell, form your FF chart it looks like CD11/12!

 

[Tinkerbell3]

Ha, with my bladder theres no chance of that. I get up about 4 times in the night and lucky if I go 2 hours in the day

4 hours?? Argh!! Knowing that makes me need a wee. Like the other day when the loos were broken at work and I didn't need to go until I heard that and then I was like OMMMgonnaweeeeemeself.

Oh I'd be like that, i'm ruled by my head too

yeh im ruled by head too sunny haha

Tink it looks like u had ur surge it was just diluted with water or juice do u leave them for five mins then come back to check them? xx

I'm thinking that aswell escpially with what Nurse said about not weeing for 4 hours before and the fact I probably had a drink within about an hour of doing them

Hey tinkerbell, form your FF chart it looks like CD11/12!

Thank you and that would fit in with the OPK's too

 

[Tinkerbell3]

Here's my latest two, from last night & this morning lines certainly fading now though can see them a bit better IRL than in pics

 

[Applecider]

I can see them faintly hun, where did u get ur tests from? xx

 

[Tinkerbell3]

They were from Ebay, my fertility chart has now detected OV as CD12 after I put in today's temp so looks like I am now 3DPO
