So I got four postives on OPK three days in a row, so I figured that I was getting ready to O. However today my temp dropped again rather than going up if I were to O. So I guess I didn't O after all.

The OPK were Kroger generic brand. Do you think they were faulty or is there something wrong with me???? Do I have too much LH in my system?

I am so discouraged. I had my DH BDing the last few days while he was very sick because I thought it was the right time.

There could be a number of reasons.was it a true positive all 3? or maybe some were lighter than others? i guess it depends on the brand u use.i use answer opk's and trust me u can tell the difference.good luck hon.i am sure u are ok and there isnt anything wrong with u.

I had this problem the first few months I used OPK's. The thing to remember is that the OPK shows a rise in LH *before* you o. Then you don't get a temp rise until *after* you o. So let's say you got a plus three days in a row, and then a negative the next day but your temp didn't go up yet. Your temp would probably go up the next day (or maybe even the day after), in which case you o'd the first day you got a negative.

Just give it more time. You are probably o'ing right now but your temp has not yet gone up.

I agree...you could still be gearing up to O. It looks like it happened a little later than now in your last cycle, so give it a little time. Keep BDing (if DH is up for it!) and maybe try using the OPKs for a couple more days. You may see another surge!

Good luck!!!
