Clomid, early + Opk??

So this is my first month taking Clomid.  I was to take it on Cd 5-9. On cd 13 with FMU I had my first + opk.  My RE told me the best time to test is in the afternoon around 5-8, so I did and I got an almost positive.  The next day I tested 2 different times, lunch and evening and both were almost again. Then on cd 15 I did the FMU again just to check and it was positive but again later on that day it was almost. All today I've gotten nothing but very very light lines. Not anywhere near positive. I'm confused because I had EWCM on Cd 14 and now it's just (sorry TMI) clear and slimey. AND my temps haven't went up yet. What do you think I need to do?  Keep testing or count CD 13 as + opk ? As the days go on my tests are getting lighter and lighter.  Just confused and probably stressing over nothing.  Thanks for the help.  Btw, my tests are on my profile if that will help.  3 days apart.  The "2" are from Cd 13 when I got the positive and the single one is from today. Thanks again! :)

My OB had me use the opk bc he said they are helpful. Sometimes I didn't get as strong of a positive as other months but if it looked almost positive I'd use that and BD like crazy and then still use the opk just in case. Sometimes you can ovulate twice too so if you keep testing you can catch it if you ovulate again too. :).

Thanks Fami. :)  I've been using them now for about 4 months and I usually ovulate on Cd 17 or Cd 18.  Always around that time and today is Cd 17 and I got another + with FMU.  I'm probably going to get a digital one today, maybe 2 and see what they say.  Just when you think this whole thing couldn't get anymore stressful.  Thanks so much again! :D

my doctor told me to never trust the OPK as they are not always reliable, so i never used them; however, from your EWCM you should have been ovulating on CD 13 or 14 as this is a sign of ovulation. try BDing every other day starting from CD12 onwards just to be safe in case you never get your exact ovulation date -(in case u r not doing it already)

hope others can help better.
