I never used OPKs. OPKs test for LH and pregnancy tests test for HCG, the hormones look similar except for the HCG beta subunit... So I wouldn't count on it, but some people do say that it turns positive when they are pregnant. I have no experience either way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-a-line-isnt-a-line/page/2#post-470367 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 21:47:09 +0000 mrs. bird 470367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: i'm hoping for good new too! =) we're having a snow storm right now, so i could walk around the corner to CVS to pick up a real HPT, but i don't really wanna. i did try a smiley OPK, but it wasn't positive, my pee was held for less than an hour though, so i doubt it was very concentrated. the other OPK strip looked pretty + thought, right?? ahhh, i'm so confused!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-a-line-isnt-a-line/page/2#post-470347 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 21:39:24 +0000 T.H.O.U. 470347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: any update?
