getting frustrated!! OPK pics

Pink.Crazy · #1 December 20th, 2009, 03:27 PM

I started testing on CD10, CD11 & CD12 (today) it's only my first cycle using them, but I really thought I'd get my positive today.. I usually O on CD14.. surely if I was going to be this cycle, I'd have a line, even if only a faint one??
I tested between my M/C and first AF, and most of the tests had a faint line, which I assume showed a trace of the hormone, I had a "peak", then the lines got faint again before disappearing. I think I had a surge, but didn't O. Or maybe I did O, I'm not sure.
I'm starting to think I won't O this cycle?...
Here are the tests, WDYT?? Is the control line valid on the last ones?

The last test looked smudged to me, but I think it would still be valid. If this is your 2nd AF after your m/c maybe you'r body is getting adjusted and taking you a little longer to O this time. I would continue to test until you get a +OPK and the next day is when you should O.

Good Luck!

i would keep testing until you get an +OPK - things could be a little "off" schedule

I stopped using the IC OPK's because I never got a true read on them. Even when I was getting a smiley face on the clearblue digital opk's my IC's would look like yours in the pictures. However, some girls in here have great success with them. How many times a day are you testing?

see i tried the ic and got a positive and didnt get one on the dollar tree ones. with my second cycle after my m/c i didnt ovulate till day 36 of my cycle it was crazy but it might take a little longer to o cause of you recovering from your m/c

I use them.. I have always had no problem with them... With a cycle after a m/c.. You may not ovulate. I know my cycle in Sept-Oct. I did not release an egg. I had an ultrasound and didn't have follies...So I would keep testing.. I hope you catch your surge... and release an egg!!!

yep, m/c's can reek havoc on your cycle. mine was off for about 6 months... sorry i know that's not what you wanted to hear. i do know too, that those opks usually don't get dark until you're having the surge, whereas some other brands will get darker gradually. hope that makes sense. try another brand and see what you get. good luck!
