Hello ladies... I had a question in regards to opk and my O day. my last three cycles have varied 31 days 28 days and my last on 36 days i havent seen ewcm in my last two cycles.. I used an opk on thur and i had a faint surge i tested fri and the line wasnt as apparent as it was on thur. but i have barely had cm creamy or ewcm and not even a slight O pain. do you think i actually O'd or my date is later im not sure. they say use your cycle with the least about of days. but last night i woke up with a numb leg which was funny. sorry i am rambling please help

my opk (at around 10 am) is always slightly lighter than the control line....then i test again in the evening and it's darker...by am lighter. are you only testing once a day? Maybe you are missing your "surge". most people ovulate sometime early morning...so by the time hormones hit  your urine may not be until later in the day...
aren't these pesky things annoying? :)

You can't have a faint surge with an OPK; it's gotta be darker than the control line or at least as dark. When I'm not surging I also get a second line that is faint but visible.

thats what i thought. but then when i tested the next day it was super light to it wasnt a positive surge. I was thinking that is was about the same color but i think i might trying to see something i want. OPK never worked for me so i gave up on it then i decided to try it again this month. =)

It's possible that your LH surge comes and goes in less than 24 hours (between the time you take your OPKs). Testing only once daily may result in missing the surge, so you may want to try testing twice a day. Check out: http://www.peeonastick.com/opkfaq.html#12
