This is my first time trying these tests. I generally have very regular 28 day cycles, so I really expected some response the last few days. The black marks are ones where I saw a slight line, but clearly still negative. What am I doing wrong?

You may ovulate later inn your cycle and have a shorter luteal phase

Nothing looks wrong. I usually have to do more than that to even start getting lines. I start about a week to 10 days after my period. When your ready to ovulate the lines start getting dark pretty fast. I usually get a positive about 3-4 days after my lines start to darken. It's a process lol.

I'm on day 15 with nothing though, and normally I ovulate around day 14 (10-17 at the most). I'm wondering these tests are no good?

I started CD 8, I ovulate between 13-16. Took x2 a day at 3pm and 10pm. Hold fluids and urine for 2 hours prior to testing. Don't use first morning urine. That's about all the tips I can think of. But like other say you might ovulate sooner or later than you think. Just takes one time of drinking heavy fluids for you to miss your LH surge. Good luck :)

Thanks, that's def helpful. I'm not good at holding fluids at all. I like my water! I'll keep testing just in case, but I'll try not to obsess over it ;)

Op, how do confirm that you ovulate? Temping? Doctor? Your LP can be between 12-16 days. So there's still time for you to o. Keep testing, mama!

I was supposed to ovulate on the 22nd but I ovulated on the 27th ! Keep testing you will find it

This is how mine are looking to! Barely visible most days and definitely no positive! I don't think I've started ovulating after a depo injection last year

I have 27days cycle and i get my positive 15th and 16th day..
In my test it says that you must not drink any fluid 2 hrs prior to testing and the best time to test is between 10am-8pm..

Thanks everyone. I actually found some old bbt charts yesterday and noticed that there's usually only 12 days from o to af for me, 14! So that would put o around CD 16, which today!

Any progression with your OPKs? X

Yeah! Definitely got darker lines today! Not a positive yet I don't think, but I'm thinking it will be tomorrow. I don't know why I get so paranoid so quickly about things :)
