need Advice.
Ok. I have aprox a 29 day Cycle. I got AF on the 3rd of september. According to Mymontlycycles, I was supposed to O yesterday. I have been using opk's since day 10 and I never got a surge. Tuesday of this week I got a faint line and wednesday it was a little darker but not darker then the control line. Not even close. Then yesterday was a faint line. I could barely see it. Whats the deal? Did I miss it or could I still have time?

hmm... you are doing everything right.. this is why i dont like to use the one with the lines... you get a clear cut answer with digitals..
was the line close to color with the test line?? maybe for some reason you didnt O this month

Re: need Advice.
It's possible that you have a short LP and that you will be ovulating soon.
I use the CBEFM, but I look at the sticks and they show 2 lines just like an OPK would. Mine were weird this month and it wasn't a real gradual change from light 2nd line to dark. Two days ago the second line was pretty faint, then yesterday it was darker than the control line. Also, the days before that - it varied from light to medium to darkish.

Re: need Advice.
maybe TMI, but are you noticing any EWCM? it's definitely possible that you didn't O yet. sometimes my cycle is 29 days and i don't O until CD17 or 18. you were on CD16 when you tested last. i would keep testing.

Re: need Advice.
I am using the early preganancy ovulation kits that I bought on-line. This is only my second month trying. Last month I didn;t use anything except my monthly cycles. This month I tought I would try these opks. I guess I will keep using them and see what happens. Thanks for your input!

yea i would keep using them...but next time around.. (hopefully you will get a BFP) but if not... i would just buy a kit at the store.. and get a digital ... i know they are not cheap.. but its worth it to me!
and maybeamommy found out that you can use the test sticks from the CBEFM and use them with the tester from the CBE digital! so once you buy the first one. it should save you money afterwards!!
HTH!!
