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.

You're so great!

Well, maybe it's just my eyes laying tricks on me. You know how easy it is the conjure up even the faintest of lines. When I tip the stick back and forth under the light, it looks like there MIGHT be a line, but I'm really really unsure. I'll ask DH to take a look he just came in from walking the dog.

You girls are the BEST! What nice messages to wake up to.

FRER running right now! I set the timer and I'm waiting for it to go off before I look.

I HATE walking up to it and see a big fat negative. It's soooooo disappointing.

~Sue,
     I was told you can implant as late as 13DPO. It is not uncommen at all, My RE said it was actually very normal, You can still get symptoms from the little booger floating around in there! It will grab hold and not let go!!!! I'm glad you kept busy, I was worried about you! ***SSBD***
