Question about my +OPK and AF

Question I had my first +OPK on CD 20 and again yesterday CD 21 and today i also got a positive. So my question is when do i start counting my first DPO? Also I am due for AF next week on 8/6 does that mean that it gets pushed out another week. I'm usual a 29 day cycle. Any input helps. Thanks.

Yay for more room to type. I tried explaining it on ur test, but theres not enough room. Ok, so u should attempt to O 12-48hrs after ur first positive...first positive, not last! The median would be 24-36hrs and thats roughly where most O. Taking temps would confirm when/if O happened, but w/o that, I would assume O to be on the 24-36hr mark, so usually the day after ur first positive. Tbh, stop testing once u get a positive. The tests after will tell u nothing that u dont already know (surge) and most likely cause stress as to why theyre still positive. Just my opinion, but todays test is not positive. If u lighten the image, u can clearly see the test line is a bit lighter than the control. As for AF, if this surge produces an ovulation (u can surge and not O), then u can expect AF to be later as well. The luteal phase (length from day after O to day before AF) should stay within +/-1-2 days of ur norm, every cycle.
Good luck! =))

@dakotagurrl OMG thank you so much for replying. You were very helpful. And yes testing more was making me stress lol. Hopefully everything turns out well and I'll just have to wait and see. Thank you again :)

Not a problem! Look into temping next cycle (if this one doesnt pan out), then u can confirm if and when ur actually O'ing. OPK's arent a guaranty for anything, they only indicate a surge.
Good luck! =))
