So, I think I just retested too soon or with urine that wasn't concentrated enough yesterday.</p> <p>@Shantuck: Yikes! I feel so preoccupied with holding my pee long enough to take a OPK. That seems like a lot of work - but I love information so I'm still tempted! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578667 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 11:59:42 +0000 Shantuck 2578667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: I hated it! I was doing acupuncture due to some fertility issues and my acupuncturist insisted on it. When I went on vacation, she gave me permission to not chart and while it sounds like no big deal, it was so indulgent to not have to wake up at 6 a.m. and take my temp before jumping out of bed for at least a few days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578653 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 11:55:23 +0000 daniellemybelle 2578653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: Thanks! :) </p> <p>@Smurfette: I'm hoping I didn't ovulate too quick because DH didn't get home from a work trip until very late last night! Wish we could have been trying in the days leading up but it is what it is.</p> <p>@winniebee: Interesting! We didn't try for LO so this is all so new to me.</p> <p>@Shantuck: Wow! Temping/charting seems the most accurate way to go but also like so much work! And I feel like I would obsess too much. We'll see how this cycle goes though. I might have to give in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578553 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 11:09:05 +0000 Shantuck 2578553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my miscarriage, my surges suddenly got really short and I would have to test twice a day every day in order to catch it. I would get really frustrated that I didn't appear to be ovulating but I tracked my BBT and my temp would rise so I think I was just missing my surge. In fact, with my current pregnancy, I never caught my surge with my twice a day testing but clearly I ovulated... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578102 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 21:13:48 +0000 winniebee 2578102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: before DS1 my surge was really short. Less than 24 hours maybe more like 12 ? So I tested twice a day and often got a positive at night and negotiable in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578069 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 20:15:36 +0000 Smurfette 2578069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: I think it is within 24 hours. But I think it varies for each person.</p> <p>We had sex Mon-Fri, got the positive Fri morning. We didn't even bother on Sat, we were tired! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578066 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 20:09:49 +0000 delight 2578066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: I usually ovulated 24-36 hours after my surge so today and tomorrow are likely prime time for you :wink: good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578063 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 20:02:18 +0000 daniellemybelle 2578063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: Oh, huh! I didn't even think of that!</p> <p>@Smurfette: Interesting - so if my surge is over does that mean I'm ovulating now? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578054 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:52:10 +0000 Smurfette 2578054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: you could have had your surge in the morning so you caught that end of it. </p> <p>I have a short surge so I had to test twice a day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578046 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:46:00 +0000 travellingbee 2578046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I believe the digital ones measure your surge by comparing the tests to each other so taking two digital in a day might mess that up....? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578041 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:29:25 +0000 daniellemybelle 2578041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsB2012: Oh, no! I have taken them since CD10 and it's CD16. It's my first positive. I'll edit the post. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578026 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:18:45 +0000 MrsB2012 2578026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Your positive one was the first one you took? Maybe you just caught it at the end of your surge, not the beginning? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/digital-opk-positive-then-negative-in-the-same-day#post-2578025 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:16:44 +0000 daniellemybelle 2578025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my first ever positive OPK (Clearblue regular digital) today and I just couldn't help myself - I took another one. It was negative. Wondering why? Was my surge really that fast? Does this mean I've ovulated or I'm going to ovulate really soon? (I don't temp/chart by the way.) If it makes any difference (I don't think it does) the blue lines on the sticks looked exactly the same both times.</p> <p>EDIT TO ADD: I have been taking the tests since CD10 and it's CD16.</p> <p>The smiley was at about 3pm and I just took another one at 7pm. I peed at least once in there so maybe my pee just wasn't concentrated enough?</p> <p>We are going to try tonight and for the next few days regardless but I'm just curious what's going on. Now I know why people get the cheapie sticks because it's so addictive! </p>
