Are these + OPKs? (links in #6 now, think they work?)

post #1 of 16
Thread Starter 
Ladies, I'm an OPK dummy. I need color help.

I thought all these were neg OPKs, but today's opk is notably lighter than the previous days which makes me wonder if I should have called one of these +

Here's pics:

Close up of 5/26, 5/27 the most ? in my mind...

Would you call any of these +? or did I miss my surge? These are Answer brand, the directions say the line can be "similar or darker" than the control... do you think the ones from 5/26 or 5/27 are similar enough to be +?

I know I *should* test 2x/day, but I drink so much water that my pee is like water by the evening so I didn't think it worth it... (I tried two nights and got a really light second line)

Chart is here- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2c383d
On CM, I had maybe wet CM on CD11 + 12, but I called it creamy cuz I wasn't sure.
Also, I don't usually ever feel O pain, but yesterday my ovaries sure as heck hurt...

Help! WDYT?
TIA

ETA: links re-posted in #6, do they work now?

That's so weird. I logged out and they don't work for me, either (they work when I'm logged in, tho...)

Trying again...

okay, those last ones work for me when I'm logged out. I have no idea what I did. Is it me or MDC? I just copy pasted...

I can see them and they definately look positive to me.I think the first one (in the pick of 2) looks a wee bit darker. I'll have to look at your chart too.
Do you think maybe you Oed on day 12?

Thanks!
I was wondering about CD12... that's actually what made me post- today's temp that is. Cuz I was sitting here thinking I hadn't had a + OPK yet so it hadn't crossed my mind. (I don't O. I don't generally have good luck w/ OPKs )

That would explain why I had a crying-jag meltdown on CD12 when DH was too tired to BD. That's really unlike me and it even surprised me. (and NOW, if this month doesn't work out I'm always gonna think I shoulda plead my case better. Greeeeaat. )

25 and 26 look positive to me, maybe 27 and 28 looks negative.

how come it says - on your chart for opks?
it might throw off FF to determine Ovulation (maybe?).

and with dealing with a stubborn dh. I deal with that bizz every. single. month.
ugh.

Is says - on my chart for opks cuz I'm apparently opk-impaired and I thought those were - opks. I think I was having a mental block that I might actually O so soon? Guess I shoulda enlisted the group wisdom a few days ago.

I fixed my chart.

On the DH thing. Gah. Honestly, we've known each other for 15+ years and NEVER did I think I would hear the words "I'm too tired" attached to DTD out of his mouth...

Hm. My temp went down today but Opk was super -
Bah. Supposed to start progest @ 3dpo. Why can't it be easy??

I would not worry about that temp drop. It was not too big. You should still get your crosshairs tomorrow as long as temps don't go any lower. I had something similar happen to me yesterday, but I made up for it today & I got my crosshairs. It's called a fall back rise. My chart is on the first page if the one thread if you wanna check it out. Good luck!
