Surge overnight?

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Question for all the OPK-ers - have you ever surged overnight (or does anyone know if that is even possible?) From everything I've read, it sounds like LH usually peaks midday. But I had an almost positive, really close OPK around 8 pm. I did not test again right before I went to bed (should have) and the next morning (around 7 when I woke up), it was a super faint test line. I have tended to have fade in patterns, so I was assuming that the nighttime OPK meant my surge starting. This is also the point in my cycle when I usually get positive OPKs. Typically I've gotten the almost positive in the morning, and then a no-mistaking-it positive a few hours later, so this is new. Unfortunately I am also taking a temping break this cycle so I can't just see what my temps do. (And this is also why my temping break is over if we need to move to next cycle!). Just wondering if it's possible I could have missed the positive overnight, or if it just doesn't work that way! :)

    Maybe your 8pm positive was the end of your surge. Had you tested earlier in the day as well?

    This use to happen to me. I would get negative in the morning and mid-day then a big positive at night. The next morning it would either be positive and then fade away or be negative already. 

    You never really know if you're getting the beginning or end of a surge. The only thing you do know is that in that moment you peed, a surge was strong enough to be detected on an opk.

    This. Because unless you went to the bathroom overnight, you would see the surge in the morning.

    From what I've read, LH surges in the wee hours of the morning.  Then it is metabolized by your body and then shows up in your urine.  So yes, it could happen overnight.  Depending on when you catch it depends on when it surges and how long it takes your body to metabolize it.  Good luck!

    I did wake up to pee once or twice overnight, which is normal for me, and honestly didn't think to test then. Thanks for the replies! We HIO last night and will probably just stick to our EOD schedule...guess we will see what happens!

    Fwiw, I'm pretty sure that's what happened to me this month. I had some darker but not quite positive OPK's this weekend, along with the right CP and CM(and some minor side pain yesterday), and now the OPK's are getting lighter. Either I didn't ovulate, or more likely I just missed the surge with the tests since it was a crazy busy weekend and my testing times were off.

     

    *Scratch that. Just got a positive OPK(troll body!) so it looks like I'm O'ing several days later than last month. 

    Due with #5 April 22, 2015. It's a girl!!!!! 

     Yes it was planned, yes we know what causes that, no we are not on public assistance, and yes we will be getting cable after this. ;)
