so af was due 2 days ago...I've been having cramping and very tired breasts are sore but always are right before af arrives...didn't have any preg. tests here at home so i used my clearblue advanced opk and it came up with a solid smiley. Has anyone else used and opk as a preg. test and gotten an positive result?
-
Yes, they work as pregnancy tests, but not the other way around. Unless your ovulating, you're pregnant. Congrats!
-
I would get a pregnancy test to confirm.
They will be very positive if you were pregnant but they could give a false positive because a lot of people have an LH surge right before their period. So it's possible you are just late and you are picking up an LH surge before AF comes.

@niellyrae: I wouldn't trust the advanced OPK with smileys. I'd get a HPT. Good luck!
-
If you are just about to get your period, an opk could come up as positive because of the LH surge right before your period. I would take an hpt. Good luck!
-
I did but I was way late - I didn't have a HPT but did have an OPK it was + so then I bought a HPT to confirm and that was + too
-
I've seen it many times on a non-smiley opk so I can't see why it wouldn't be the same concept? A friend actually just found out she was expecting using an OPK first.
-
@niellyrae: I didn't get a positve OPK as HPT until I was like a week or so past my expected AF but I have heard of others getting one early.
-
Yes, that's how I figured out I was pregnant. I was messing with the OPKs just seeing what they read at different times in my cycle!
-
Thanks ladies! I'll be getting a hpt either today or tomorrow to confirm (I live far from town or else would've gotten one by now lol) AH this is so exciting !!!
-
@niellyrae: I found out I was pregnant from a two line opk being positive, although I thought I was just ovulating really early. it is true though that they do get positive if you are pregnant.
