    What would you make of this?

    So I ordered some ebay cheapie OPK and HPT - 40 of each
    Started using OPK and have had faint lines, but as the instructions state you're meant to get a dark line for positive.
    Yesterday I got the darkest line yet, almost the same as the control line. Today I got no line at all.
    Should I take yesterdays test as a positive? Or does it sound like I just haven't ovulated yet? I did another and it was a very faint line...
    This is so confusing - I don't want to miss it lol!

    OPK's confused the hell out of me too. I thought they had to be darker than the control line? So yeah, you ovulated yesterday? Gah, I am rubbish!

    Sorry! Am hoping someone else comes behind me and gives you better advice than me!

    Hey CheezelMonster!

    I just stalked you in the TTC thread so thought I'd come post on here for you!

    OPK's used to confuse me too...but then I kinda worked it out. The test line is supposed to be as dark as the control line (but sometimes it looked the same amount of darkness to me) If you got a flat out negative then I'd say that you O'd yesterday too.

    If you can post a pic of it so we can have a looksy?

    Oh Kristy I wish I could but that's just too technical for me lol!
    Yesterdays OPK was not quite as dark as the control line, but VERY close. Maybe I should just take it as a positive for now but keep on testing for a few more days.
    I totally missed ovulation last month in similar circumstances, not letting it slip by me again lol!

    Yeah I'd say it was positive yesterday too. Keep in mind that a positive OPK means you are about to ovulate, so you could ovulate any time in the 24-48hrs after the positive. Keep BDing!

    lol I'm not that technical either...but I was hoping that you were!! hehe

    I agree with Liz, I'd say it was a positive and that you would have either O'd yesterday or today.

    Hope you watch that eggie!! lol My DH was the same! I'd come home from work and be like "Babe...." and he would know straight away and be like "really?? But Im tired!!" lol
    He uses female's excuses!

    P.S Your user name has make me feel like eating Cheezles now! lol
