OPK timing

Hi Everyone!

Sorry it's been a while since I've been active on these boards, I was traveling and then life got busy as it always does! 

Anyways...I have been using cheap OPKs from Giant that I have used before to test and on the box it doesn't say to use FMU or to test before you go to bed, just that you haven't drunken a lot within the past 2 hours. My question is, for the past 6 days I had been testing right before bed time (getting very faint lines), and since I knew I was getting closer to my fertile period, this morning I decided to test with FMU and it was definitely positive. I logged it as positive on FF, but now I'm thinking it could be thrown off since I usually test at bedtime? 

My FF chart is in my siggy so feel free to stalk and let me know what you guys think, if I should test again tonight before bedtime.

Sorry if this post is confusing...it's early and I still need my coffee haha

    It doesn't really matter what time of day you test. A positive OPK is a positive OPK. Though the best time of day to test is in the afternoon because you're most likely to catch your LH surge then.

    It doesn't matter if you test at different times. Many women test a couple times a day to make sure they catch their surge. Even if you test tonight and get a negative, you still had a positive opk for the day.
