OPKs (instead of HPTs) in TWW

[ttcin2012]

Hey girls

I have sworn off HPTs till 14dpo but I have to pee on something, right? So yesterday and today I peed on OPKs and they are near positives (not quite positive but like the ones you get a few hours before/ just a day before a strong positive opk). I know that OPKs cannot be used as HPTs and yes, I have read that article on why not. Am here to just obsess and ask if anyone else has tried this/ is trying this....

Do pitch in!

I'm curious too, but have no insight! I would think they wouldn't be an indication because OPKs measure a completely different hormone than HPTs. What did the articles say? Gotta love Google.

I was thinking of doing this too! What do the articals say about not using them? Xx

I got a strong pos on my OPK, then light pos on HPT. They do pick up but not sure how accurate they are xx
