I can't handle much more of this.. so please, someone decide for me. There is a 'stripe' in the test line (first OPK) that in real life seems to be the same intensity as the control line. I just don't know anymore, I'm going bananas.

The problem is that sometimes my positives are REALLY positive, and sometimes I just don't know.. and since the manufacturer said that if any part of the test line is as dark or darker then the control line, that makes it really hard for me to decide.. like in the first one above, there is a stripe in the test line that is as dark as the control line, but the rest is light. It's just so frustrating. A nice obvious line would be great, but I don't usually get that. I know the second and third are negative, it's the first that's bugging me.

Yeah, I've read that there before.. but I don't know where they get that info., kwim? So I figured that I would go by the manufacturer's info. I don't know, I give up.

This is my first month using OPK's, and I've determined they're a waste of money. Mine all looked like yours do and I would bet money I'm O'ing today, yet never got anything close to a positive OPK. I'll know for sure by what my temps decide to do over the next few days I suppose.
I would give up on the OPK's and focus on your temps and BDing. OPK's can make you nuts. Even my doctor told me not to waste my money. (But I have a peeonastick addiction....LOL) Looks like you may be having an implantation dip today? Go temps go........
I will be stalking you this month for sure..... Best of luck hon! Looks good so far!
