Xpost: Not TTC, but... (No, I'm not PG!)

why would I get a line on an Ovulation Predictor stick when "I think" my period is late??? When I was using OPK's to get PG with both my son's I NEVER got even the faintest line on one until I was close to ovulating? I know women have used them to detect being PG, but I don't think I am since I don't have symptoms. I've felt like my period was coming for days now, but so far nothing. I believe I ovulated about 1.5 -2 weeks ago. Any thoughts? Of course we're not TTC, I'm only 10.5 weeks PP, but I'm now on the minipill so my DH is not careful at all any more and I haven't been taking the pill at the same time everyday. With both my son's I got my period by 7 weeks postpartum so I'm pretty sure it's due right around now or a few days ago. I was just wondering why I would get a line on one? I was just playing around and there was a line. I also used to chart so I took my temp just playing around and it was really low. Well, compared to what it is when I am PG. It wasn't at waking time though and it was when I was doing things right before. It's just that when I was PG my temp would be high no matter when or what I was doing. Anyway... I don't know if me taking the minipill or BF'ing or being 10.5 PP would have anything to do with it or not. I just wanted to ask because I was curious! Thanks ladies!

HcG (the pregnancy hormone) WILL give a + result in OPKs as it is almost identical to LH. I got that info on pee on a stick

I'm not sure if being on the pill would give a +OPK result. Being PG however, WILL give a + result on an OPK.

Why not just take a cheapie HPT?

Good Luck!!

Thanks for the reply! I guess I'll have to do that just to be sure. I HIGHLY doubt it, but I'll test anyway just because if for some miracle I am, I want to stop taking the pill. Thanks!

I would take a test just to be sure.
