Here I am on CD 8 and my OPK is almost positive. If this plays out like my OPKs usually do, I'd expect it to be positive either tonight or tomorrow afternoon, tomorrow night at the latest. What the heck is going on here? Before Drew I ovulated CD 19-28, and here I am getting + OPKs earlier and earlier every cycle now! Not that I'm complaining, just CD 8 seems to be a little earlier than I would have ever expected... That would put me Oing on CD 10/11 or so. I've gone from CD 21 our first cycle after Drew to this now, every month just a few days earlier. It's so strange! I wouldn't have even used any OPKs until probably CD 10 except that I started having watery CM a couple days ago, so I took one yesterday and there was a noticeable test line, and the one just now was nutso. SO STRANGE. Just waiting to see what happens! Gonna keep BDing and "shoot for it"  Sorry, bad pun. I just had to post about it. Even if it goes light again and then I get a real positive in a few days, that would be bizarre too. My body has lost its mind, every cycle giving me something new to ponder. RUDE.
I'm wondering if the 75mg of DHEA might be doing weird things, and I can't tell if these are good weird things or bad weird things. I definitely felt good about it until now, but if I O on CD 10 I'm gonna be a little edgy about it.

I hope it works out. I don't really have anything witty to say. Maybe it's the rain.

Erin Oing earlier isn't necessarily a bad thing... did you take soy or just the DHEA? Maybe this difference is what you need for your BFP!

That is wierd, what is even more strange is that my OPK was almost positive too. I am on CD9, but I o'd on CD20, last time! I also noticed a change in CM so I decided to use one today. Maybe it is just cuz it was my time using the Wonfo's and it is more sensitive, but WIERD! If I do O soon then we are destined to be cycle buddies  I hope this is a good sign, I want to see some more BFP's for Arpril/May!

Good luck Erin.
I have had the OPKs get dark and almost go positive then 2 days later be very blarring.
I think thats what my last (pregnancy) cycle did.
My body is playing games with me as well.... but I should expect it since I have not even had a A/F yet.
