I have sooo many questions. I am on clomid 50mg (took on CD1-5). This is my first cycle. Yesterday was CD13 I had a light barely there line on the OPK. What does this mean??? Am I going to ovulate? Today CD14 it is wider and light pink. I am also taking mucinex and using preseed, I haven't really noticed the CM being abundant, well during BD it seems to increase. Is this normal? I have read so many post where women say they have it all the time. Also BD is slightly uncomfortable right now. Is this normal???

On my OPK strip pamphlet it says that the second line should be as dark or darker than the control line. It definately is not as dark or darker. However I have been testing between days 11-20 for months now and NO line at all before now. Does this mean I am going to ovulate???

I never had any luck w/those things. When I knew I was ovulating (because of bloodwork & ultrasounds) it would indicate that I wasn't... they suck!! (in my opinion)

Grrrr... they are so frustrating. They have all been neg since the light strips. I am experiencing abundant CM now though. I'm baffled

Those strips always confused me. "A line as dark as or darker than..." Too confusing! You need supervision! I gave up on those long before we conceived.

I guess a light line on the opk strip is not enough to get pregnant. Grrr.... CD 30 here BFN (times 3 test) because I just couldn't believe it with all the BDing that occured this month. Also no AF as of yet. I am going to wait a couple of days and start provera if it doesn't come on its own.

I am just sooo... frustrated. I really thought last month would be the month. I had cramping and pelvic pain around the middle of the cycle CM all over the place and my b___st hurt so bad and GREW about a week before AF was due

I had some trouble with the OPK stips as well, but after awhile, I figured out that I was ovulating later - days 19/20 in my cycle. I know that TTC is so stressful and emotional, but remember that Clomid is just bringing you up to par with other women that ovulate normally. So, the chances of concieving are still around 25% each month as long as you ovulate. It took me 6 cycles for my first, 5 for the next pregnancy (ended in m/c) and then got pregnant with my twins on the next cycle. Baby Dust to you and try to stay positive...I know, I know, when I heard that, I wanted to scream but it's true.
