OPK as HPT? Got 2 Super Dark Tests

It's 12:15 a.m. here in Boston and for the 3rd night in a row I can't sleep. Before we got into bed, I decided to do an OPK as an HPT since I have the tube of 20 and a whole bunch left over. It came out super dark within a couple of minutes, so I did another one and same thing. Then I decided to do a FRER HPT and it came out negative, not even a hint of a line. Tomorrow is 12 dpo and I got a positive on 12 dpo last year. I can't help but think the OPK's must be right because they were so dark. They weren't pink, they were plum red.

I'll let you know what happens in the morning.

Ok I will keep my chin up and see what happens.

Amy, hopefully I implanted later on. I have to remind myself that every pregnancy is different.

Keisha, wow you didn't get a faint line until 17 dpo? That's good to hear!

I'll wait until tomorrow a.m. to test again. Maybe I'll test tonight, I don't know.

I still have a ton of yellow cm, so I'm still holding out hope.

Stay away bee-otch! Stay away!

Sue~ All women are different, if you would have implanted at 6 or 7 dpo, No it wouldn't probly be too early. 10 or 11 dpo then yes could be! I was 17 dpo and got a very faint line, very. After blood work my HCG confimed that I was real early, My AM urine is not as strong as my eve. urine. The am after my BFP I got the slightest hint of a line, Thats why I was so nervous, but later that eve my line was a little darker again. Just try to be patient, test again later tonight or again in the am, You are still in the game sister! You are not out yet!!!!   *****SSBD******

Yes it can be too early if you implanted late.  From what I've read, it takes a few days for enough HCG to be produced after implant to show up on a test.  Sooo if you implanted at 11 or 12DPO...there might not be enough yet???

I don't know, K, my DH says he sees nothing. Of course he didn't scrutinize it the way I did. Maybe there was a shadow, but that's not good enough for me. Can 13 dpo be early, too?
