But your temp is very high!! When would you test..

I've tested at least twice per day for the last 12 days since AF was due and other than the 5 (lol) faint positives on Thursday and Friday I have had nothing

I feel like I'm so close to my this month ladies! My temp dipped down a few days ago but it went right back up... I'm praying so hard that this is the month.

You have no idea how much that cheers me up. I've looked it up

(biology teacher style explanation below for anyone who didn't do so great in biology)

Basically hcg and LH have similar chemical structures. Like two Yale keys might have similar shapes but not identical
OPKs bind to anything with that basic structure (ie will let anything key shaped stick to it) and so will show positive
Pregnancy tests are specific to Hcg (like how only your own key will open your door, even if others fit in the hole) so only shows positive when the "key" has unlocked it

I love the explanation! I had no idea that's why it happened. I just knew I had to POAS after our comments lol though and got this bright positive- it's dried since obviously

Have you ever taken an opk around AF before?

Went to the doctors, urine was negative. She's doing bloods but she suspects missed miscarriage and that my period just skipped onto the next cycle

So I'm saying I'm out and I'm going to start temping and teaching for O again now

 

[x-ginge-x]

Bloods won't lie fingers crossed!! I am waiting for temp rise although looks possible I ovulated on CD14!
