hello,

I was just wondering, is itpossible to NOT get a positive OPK in a month? Does that mean that I'm not ovulating?

So today is CD14.

I've been testing with OPKs since CD10.

They have been faint on day 10, a bit darker on subsequent days ...until yesterday when the line was dark enough to see without a doubt (but not equal to, or darker than the control line - which is the test kits definition of a positive)

I did a test today at midday (after holding my bladder since 8am)...and the line is almost non existant.

My temp has gone down from yesterday, so I assume ovulation will hapen today...but the lack of confirmation on the OPK is freaking me out.

Any advice?

Do you normally have 28 day cycles? Otherwise it may not be O time yet. Also some women have LH surges so short they miss it of the don't test multiple times a day. It is possible to O and never have a + OPK. Just like its possible to have a + OPK and not O. It's good you are temping because that will determine whether you actually do O or not. Good luck!!

Not really sure, as it was 26 days in October, 25 days in Nov and 28 days in Dec.

You're right, hopefully my chart will give me some answers soon.

Thanks

I would keep testing and temping. My cycles can vary from CD25 - CD28 and I usually O later in my cycle. GL!

Hopefully it will get less stressful the longer you keep charting.
