13dpO obsessing

Well, here's a tiny bit of 13dpO obsessing from me. I tossed and turned all night, so my BBT will give me no clues

Did another OPK this morning with FMU and again had the faint shadow (not a line) show up in about 7 minutes. Could not face the blank window of an HPT again, so didn't do it.

Here's the obsessing part: (past BFP's mentioned) In March, I did an OPK with FMU at 13dpDIUI. The second line was just as dark as the control line. Next morning 14dpDIUI (beta 307), did an HPT which was positive. Beta was 307. Soooo, the HCG in my body the morning of 13dp when I used the OPK, must have been at least 200, eh?

So maybe I AM pregnant, but with a lower HCG level? Doesn't explain the blank HPT yesterday (that detects as little as 10 iu of HCG), but..........Does this sound as grasping at straws to you as it does to me? But it might be why the OPK is faint instead of dark?

I'm going for my beta this afternoon, so that I have my results by the end of the day Friday. Except I am feeling a bit crampy, so not too enthusiastic to greet CD1.

as far as the opks, there is usually always a small ammt of LH in your system. for you to use the opk as an hpt both lines need to be equally dark. if they are not it means nothing. that is why you should always rely on hpts. if you need more info go to peeonastick.com. there is some info about using opk as hpt on there.
