OPKs question

This is my first month using OPKs. On CD9 and 10 I got lines, but not enough to call the test positive, then the past few mornings the line has gotten weaker. I had to really squint to even see a line this morning. I'm always using FMU and testing around same time. Is this normal?
According to my past cycles, it's too early for me to O, but I think my cycles are a bit wacky as I'm just starting to have "real" cycles after coming off BCP in late August.

Has anyone else had this happen with their OPKs?

Thanks ladies for any input!
Baby dust to everyone!

What kind are you using? The kind I use (internet test strips) say not to use with FMU. I normally test mid-day and again around 7 p.m.

I have internet cheapies, as well.


I was testing in the afternoon, but never got a single second line at all because I drink water all throughout the day. I can't go four hours without using the restroom. I have a small bladder :)


I thought some people had good results with FMU on their OPKs?


Guess I should check my instructions and see what's going on.

Try not drinking so much while you are testing. You aren't supposed to use FMU, and when you
