    Hi ladies quick question! had a very very faint line on an OPK this morn, then at 5 when I got home I had a darker line, is this dark enough for a positive or should I test again later?

    Mrsdave, could be implantation spotting or could be AF on her way. I had that this month, never had it before, turns out the witch was playing games, but fingers crossed its the former for you.

    OOps sorry Bezzyk thought that was a hPT, if its an opk looks like your nearly there, get bding!!!

    Are you doing the OPK as an HPT thing? if so it looks like a BFP to me. So congrats:)
    However if you are testing for a OV day then the second line needs to be darker than the control line.

    Phew it's not just me then! I've put them into 'Paint' on the pc and inverted the colours and can still see the lines. I'm hoping an evap wouldn't do this as it's colourless. Thankyou ladies - I'll shut up about it now.

    Welcome MrsGSR :)

    It is a nightmare to see the lines isn't it? Ive held mine up to lights in the past and all sorts. Evap lines look a biut grey in my experience.

    ETA: had another look and can deffo see VFP there ;)

    Optimum time for testing with an OPK is meant to be between 2pm and 5pm which is impossible if you work. I used those OPKs before and had a line like that then the next day a much darker line and now I have a 21 month old;)

    I reckon though you could definitely go in for some BDing:T

    Evening ladies!!

    Just need to have a bit of a heart to heart with myself so please feel free to ignore......

    I went on a stop smoking course on November 11th. Have done amazingly up til recently - no urges to smoke, etc, and I feel so much better about myself, so much more positive. The last few times I've got a bit tipsy (ok, a lot tipsy) I've had a few puffs of cigs. Nothing major but I've booked myself back on a refresher course so I don't fall off the bandwagon as I don't want to become an alcoholic just so I can have a puff on a cig...!!! I told DH that I'm booked on the refresher and he's got himself in a state saying 'that's how you started again last time' and 'i don't want to TTC if you are going to start smoking again.' The thing is - I don't want to start smoking again which is why I've booked myself on the course!! But, now he's saying that he doesn't want us to go out, etc for the next two weeks until the refresher course so that the temptation isn't there. We are supposed to be going out this weekend... I really want him to understand that I DON'T want to start smoking again and that's why I've booked on the refresher - just to remove any temptation but I'm feeling really stressed about it now as he says I promised I wouldn't and I have... I know that drinking is no excuse but I don't want to feel like a failure and I don't want 'if you smoke, no baby' hanging over my head. I DON'T WANT TO SMOKE!!!!! I've just had a blip that I'm sorting out before it goes too far!!! He's gone to footie now so we will talk about it when he gets back but I feel a bit down about it, that's all. I'm just a bit deflated in that, if I was pg by now, none of this would be happening and I wouldnt be drinking, etc, etc.

    Sorry for the rant, just needed to write it down to make myself feel better... Hasn't worked just yet...

    Just wanted to give you hugs smash! Stay strong & ur doing the right thing by booking on the refresher. Maybe your oh is just trying to help by suggesting you both don't go out.

    Am sure you'll have a good talk when he's home & will all get sorted
