So yesterday was my first positive OPK (wondfo, then confirmed w/digital) then today, at 12pm, I took a wondfo and it was positive, then just now, at 3pm, I took a digital to confirm, and it was negative. How do I mark it on the chart? Here are pics below to show you, I took the stick out of the digital to look at the lines. Am I a negative for today or a positive???? To clarify, top pic is Wondfo @ 12pm today, bottom pic is CB Digital negative at 3pm. Thanks!

Did you take the pictures at the same time? Or the top one at 12 and the bottom one at 3? I only ask because I think they get darker over time. If it were me, I'd assume that I was O'ing like, right now, because the LH surge leads up to the O. I'd probably mark today as positive, but I bet your temp goes up tomorrow.

I took the picture at 12, and then at 3. I keep pictures of my OPKs to track them bc I think they dry up and get distorted after a while. I actually took 3 tests today, the one this morning was as dark as it could be, around 545am. So the surge has passed, you think? mark today as a positive?

Mmmm, if the digital was negative I'd probably mark today as negative. Yesterday is the important one though, so between yesterday's positive and your temps, you probably don't really need a 'good' answer for today's OPK.

Muy importante! Pre-seed helps me through the, "AGH I'M EXHAUSTED DON'T LOOK AT ME!" days

I would mark today as positive because you had a positive today. It's possible that your surge was over by the time you did the digital. And generally it's only your first positive that matters, since you O 12-36 hours from your first positive!

@chibee: agreed! DH asked yesterday if I was interested and I was like, "you've got to be kidding me!" I'm with @kpow: preseed it up and get it over with!

@ladybee: lol - "Preseed it it up and get it over with"! I just had a mental picture of Victorian women saying that.

@grace: lol there was a lot of that attitude in our home this cycle. Hopefully it does the trick.

BTW, last night when I went home, I tested with the digital again, just to see what it will say - and - positive. Weird. Anyway, that made it easier for me to mark w/confidence on the chart either way.

And this is the positive at night if anyone is interested in my stupid OPK dilemma.

@chibee: Whaaaa? Maybe when you took it the first time yesterday your pee was too diluted. Did you hold it for 4 hrs before testing? I've never heard of + - +! Crazy. Ah well, at least it was positive yesterday too. BD again today. Sorry!
