So don't get discouraged. And good luck with the strips. Why'd you switch? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-989058 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 22:43:24 +0000 ellewoods84 989058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well just like everyone else has said, stress can definitely change your ovulation days. I typically get a positive OPK between day 18-day 20. Last month I tested up until day 23 and never saw a positive. However, that same week our dog passed away unexpectedly, which was of course super sad and stressful. I am assuming I didn't ovulate until almost day 30ish considering my cycle ended up being 45 days.<br /> I have used both the digital OPK and the wondfos. So far this cycle I am using the wondfos. I am also on cycle day 18 (cycle twins!!) and I too am only seeing a faint line. Just keep testing, you might just be having a longer than normal cycle! I will also continue to test.<br /> Good luck!!! Hope you see a positive OPK in these next couple of days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-988573 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 16:47:04 +0000 chibee 988573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Stress was such a factor in my cycle - the latest I ever ovulated was the month DH and I fought SO MUCH late into the night for a week straight - stress has a crazy effect on the body! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-988486 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 14:59:02 +0000 SupernovaJ 988486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine also got darker as I neared ovulation. I tested twice a day with the cheapie wondfos and when it looked like a positive opk, I confirmed with a digital opk right away to be sure. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-988483 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 14:55:08 +0000 mrs. 64 988483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine start faint and get darker as well and do vary a couple days from month to month. I gave up on the wondfos though because I got tired of trying to interpret them. I use clearblue digi, regular (not advanced) version. I wouldn't worry. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-988461 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 14:39:34 +0000 Happygal 988461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Stress can affect things. Keep testing--mine do start faint and grow stronger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/opk-question#post-988457 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 14:30:40 +0000 Claire.Peonies 988457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>im worried my stress is messing up my ovulation. I have been ovulating between cd 16 and 19 at the latest. Currently cd 18 and the opk sticks are starting to develop a faint line but no positive yet. DH thinks that the fact that there is a small line present is a good sign- that it is coming. I did switch from digital to the wandfos?(sp) this month </p>
