    If the test line is slightly lighter, you will probably get a positive result soon, although having said that I never got a 'true' positive' on an opk. When you do get a positive result you will more than likely O in the next 24-48 hours.

    I would start bding today, just to increase your chances of catching the egg. Good luck.

    HI Pebs,
    Like Kazz I have only ever once got a true positive on an opk and that was when I tested four times in the one day!!!

    Having said that I looovve opk's. They can tell you when you are about to ovulate and knowing that gives you the best chance of catching the egg.
    If you have a second line slightly lighter than the control line you are probably very close to ovulating. I have had a feint line at 2pm darker at 6pm and gone by 10pm. I got pregnant that cycle so I ovulalted but never registered a 'true' positive. So, had you tested 4 hours later yesterday you may have seen a true positive.

    Anyway as Kazz said bd away once you get a line that is looking close to positive and do so for the next 3 days. The thing to remember is that you will probably ovulate within the next 12-48 hours from when you get a positive.

    Oh Pebs I hope you catch a gorgeous egg this month. I have my fingers crossed for you sweetie.

    Hugs,
