OK so im new to opk testing..What does it mean when for the last 3 days,  ive gotten a positive in the morning, afternoon and negative at night?! When will i ovulate if they are still positive?! Should i go just off of my first day of positives?!

    the top one is sunday night, and bottom was monday morning..Maybe i ovulated yesterday (tuesday)? I guess no matter when i ovulated (if i ovulated) it wouldnt matter bc me and hubby have been BD'ing every night since CD9.

    I used to have up to 3 days of positive tests, now I have less than one.  Are you holding your pee long enough in the evening? 

    You really won't 100% know you ovulate until after you ovulate, assuming you are temping as well.  Some woman get multiple lh surges before actually ovulating.

    Ok, ill def go read that right now. Thanks for the fast responses! I haven't started temping yet..Might try next cyle..I'm so consumed with the opks that i think temping might add more stress..or maybe will will relive the stress. Idk!

    All the instructions I have ever read say that you should consider the FIRST positive to indicate you will ovulate within the 12-48 hour window.  I.e. any subsequent days of positives are not telling you anything new. (Unless you don't ovulate the first time, keep using the OPKs and it becomes a second surge but that is another story altogether). 

    Obviously, it is going to be different for everyone, but I would say you should begin to have sex every day or every other day, based on you and your partner's preference) once you get the first positive.
