    Hiya
    I did an OPK on CD12 and it was a +ve and as I had never had a positive before on an OPK it seemed odd - I did not get my +ve on HPT until CD17 (and it was very faint).

    Good luck - I think it can be a sign but you should definitely wait for the HPT +ve before getting too excited as I don't know how reliable they really are.

    Hi,

    after reading this thread yesterday I couldn't help myself I had 4 OPKs and 1 HPT and i really wasn't going to test, but then i thought why not. So last night I did an OPK and got a 2nd line (never had one before). I am only 10 DPO today, but i still thought i would give my HPT a go this morning and it came back -ve. I did another OPK and it had a 2nd line as well, but fainter than last nights.

    so, I'm excited, but nervous. my question is this, last night i got a stronger 2nd line on OPK than the one this morning, would it get stronger or weaker or stay the same? Should i take this as a good sign, or as DP would say "don't count my chickens"?

    any advice would be great! thanks

    Hi Bron, last time I was pg I did an OPK (can't remember when, I think about 7-8DPO) and got a faint +. Didn't get a +HPT until 14DPO, so the OPK really tipped me off to being pg. I did an OPK today, and got a faint + again, so really hoping that it works the same way this time (just with a better ending!). Good luck, please let us know how you go.
