OK! So I'm on CD 13 and I think I may have already ovulated? I had a "fade in" pattern on my OPKs on CDs 10 and 11 and my darkest OPK this cycle at 2 p.m. Saturday, but I wouldn't say it was quite positive. You can see yesterday's and today's in the photo. I know some of the girls on here don't get obviously positive OPKs, but I usually do. Based on the fade in, I figured I was going to have an obviously positive OPK today, but no dice. I'm wondering if yesterday's almost positive was, in fact, a positive? Todays CM is wet, but not egg white and I have a high, open cervix. If I already Oed, it would be my earliest O ever. This is my third cycle on clomid, my first on 100mgs. Cycle 1 (50mgs) I Oed on CD 16. Cycle 2 (50mgs) I Oed on CD 20, which is why my doctor decided to increase the dose.

So ladies, did I already O? Or was it just a "practice surge"? Maybe I'll get the real one in the next few days? ARG. I hate the uncertainty!

Oh, and I need to know because I have to schedule my 7DPO blood draw to check my progesterone levels. 

I don't cycle really at all without clomid. The past two cycles I've had 12 and 14 day LPs, respectively. So let's see ... 16+12 =28 days and 14+20= 34 days? There you go. 28 and 34 day cycles on my last two. I was assuming that the increased clomid dose would help shorten the first half of my cycle since the doctors want you to ovulate on CD 14, ideally. CD 12 seems a little early, especially for me, but I suppose it's possible?

I switched brands because I went out of town for the day and had to pick up some at the drug store because I forgot to bring any along.

Good advice, Jaguar. Think I'll call and ask the nurse tomorrow what she thinks. Also I guess I could see if they'll do an ultrasound on me to check out the situation. We haven't been doing those due to finances, but I think it would be worth it to find out what's up and make sure we have good timing this month!

@jaguar: Thank you for the advice! I'll let you know what the nurse says tomorrow morning. :)

@bunny:  Sorry, hon, but neither of those tests look positive to me.  Have you had a temp spike???  If not, I would keep testing.

So I tested again this morning with the sticks I bought Saturday and I had another almost positive OPK, but then this afternoon I used one of each type at 2 p.m. and the thin one was SO much brighter than the thick one, which had practically no line at all! I totally don't trust that brand now. :P

The nurse at my doctor's office said I should wait a few more days to see what happens. I think we'll probably do my progesterone test on Day 21 if I don't get a positive OPK. Thanks for your help!

Oh, and they wouldn't do an ultrasound to see where I was in my cycle. That's another thing I'd have to see a specialist for, apparently. Hate it, hate it, hate it!
