I didnt get much feedback on the last but maybe this will make it a tad easier to understand........
bare with me... I had my AF on April 16th (cycle day one) went through til cycle day 6. I started testing with OPK's cycle day 7
cycle day 7: the line was just a tad bit lighter than the test line. Negative right?
cycle day 8: the line was a TAD bit lighter than the day before. Negative.
cycle day 9: again just a tad bit lighter than day 8. Negative.
cycle day 10: the line was a TAD bit DARKER than the day before (still lighter than test line) Negative.
cycle day 11: the line is BARELY there. Negative.
cycle day 12: the line is a tad bit DARKER than the day before UGGGG. still Negative.
cycle day 13: A SHADOW MAYBE??? DEFINANTLY Negative.
Last night and this morning I experienced what appeared to be those O pains...I got them ONCE BEFORE RIGHT after I had my last daughter on one side. she was a month old. And then again once last year. Well I was wondering if I was causing my body to posibly try and Ovulate because I started taking alot of folic acid, calcium, B-6 and prenatals to top it off. (three nights ago) Anyone have any feedback??? Should I stop testing and wasting my Opks or should I test again tomorrow??? ugggg im so frustrated....I just also realized by self diagnosis that I may have endometriosis. comments please????????

I understand what you are saying. When I used OPK's the same thing would happen. I think it is normal. It would fluctuate all the time light to dark than back to light. All that matters is that they were negative. It's when you get a positive that anything matters. To better explain that it doesn't mean anything when the line is different colors while its neg. Don't stress about it cause it means nothing. When you get you positive you will know it will be darker than the test line.
About the cramping some women get cramps days leading up to O. So if I were you I would get bding now because you will probably get your pos. tomorrow or maybe the next day.
Good Luck
