Help anyone use OPK? TTC after MMC

[Joobjoob]

Hi all...this is my first time posting,

I had a MMC in October and had an ERPC. Everything went well and I got a -ve HPT a week or so after the ERPC.

Recently I have been trying OPK's to see when I OV (Not 'trying' this cycle, really waiting for AF)
I missed a few days of th OPK's (Had been getting totally -ve results, no second line at all - had this last time I used them, and then had a slight fade in result to OV)
Then the other day (after missing a few days) I got a faint line on the OPK. The question is, could I have OV'd in that few days I missed and it was a 'fade out'?? Do you get those?
Maybe a bit of a strange question and maybe I'm clutching at straws that my body is getting back to normal, any help would be brilliant.

I wish I knew more about the Ov tests. I just know that you should take them in the afternoon. I know people have said it can be totally normal and not necessarily an indicator of anything to have some of the hormone in your system which would show as a negative O test, with a faint line. Some women always have a faint line on those tests whenever they take them.
I guess it is possible you missed your ovulation, but I would keep using them and see if you get a clear answer. How far along were you when you had your m/c? I have had 2 early ones and have got back into a pretty normal schedule right away. I really hope it is the same for you and you get back to a normal schedule and get your bfp soon.

Hi Hun,
Sorry for your loss
It is possible you have missed it and the faint line you got is you finishing OV but I can't say for def, as I used to get faints all the time even when I was no where near OV. I bought a saliva ovulation test and I'd recommend them, they're a bit tricky at first but once you get the hang of it they're very handy and you even end up saving £

Thanks

I was meant to be 11 wks but bubs stopped growing at about 8. Felt like my body got back to normal pretty quick with no bleeding and a neg preg test fairly soon.
I had been getting totally neg OV tests (as I had before) so when i saw the line I thought something musta been different! I guess I just have to wait for AF. Not so good at waiting though...

What is the difference with the saliva ones apart from the obvious how you test!!?!!
