Here is my original thread

Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice on this.
As it says in the thread, I'm supposed to be so many DPO.
Can actual pregnancy give a false reading on an OPK, or is it possible that I'm only just about to O??

mind spinning...


To give you a rough idea..

Here is an OPK from around a week ago.




And here is today's

Hum... I think that early Pregnancy could be detected in the OPKs? Maybe take a HPT!

Thats what I'm thinking!! But I'm too scared it will be a so I'm trying to wait...taking another OPK shortly to see what it looks like...

Lol see now ya'll got me thinking, and I've been researching!!!

"OPK's as HPT's:
using an ovulation test to confirm pregnancy



Overall-- yes, it can be done. Ovulation predictor tests (known as OPK's because they are normally sold in a set of tests known as a "kit," thus the K) will show a positive result when a woman is pregnant, as well as when she's ovulating.

Specifically-- while it works most of the time, there are good reasons to avoid using an OPK as an HPT for diagnostic purposes. If you want to pee on any stick that will stand still after you know you're pregnant, just for fun, have at it. But I would not recommend using an OPK in place of an HPT overall.

Reasoning-- OPK's detect LH (luteinizing hormone) which is the hormone associated with ovulation. Pregnancy tests detect hCG, the hormone associated with pregnancy. LH and hCG are, at a molecular level, nearly identical. hCG has a beta subunit, meaning it has an extra little "doodad."
