do you stop testing with opks after pos?

Im just curious....how many people actually stop testing after their first pos opk? I keep going and I'm curious if I'm alone in that :P.
Just got my 2nd day of pos opk....

I usually test one more just to see the fade out, but I'm a POAS addict. :)

Depends on my reasons for using them (awareness or TTC) and if my body does anything funny. If I get a pretty straight forward mucus progression and then my typical heavy feeling after a positive OPK, I don't bother testing after that first positive. If I get weird reoccurrences of EWCM or don't have any heaviness, I might test again. When I conceived my daughter, I got two positive OPKs two days apart (negative in the interim). So clearly something happened there. We did get pregnant because we BD again. But had I stopped testing, I might have missed that second surge (might not have mattered, but still, you get the idea).

I did his past month, because I was sure it was positive at 11pm on Saturday when we Dtd and then it stayed positive until about 6pm on Sunday, that's why I thought we were out...I assumed we'd attempted too early!

I often have people continue testing in case the first positive was a faker. It's up to you, though...if you're pretty sure it's the real deal, you may not need to do that.

I usually stop after first +OPK...but...I have other symptoms that let me know for sure when I am ovulating.

I keep testing until I get my temp rise.

Can I ask then, approx. for how long are you likely to get a +opk for?
When ttc this baby I was just going on cm as I hadn't had much luck with getting a +opk. So when I felt things were 'right' we dtd. I tested the next day and it was +opk, lol! However, I really that this + actually came day after O. Is that likely? Could I still get a +opk the day after O?

When I try to work out conception dates (knowing we only had 1x attempt) it seems that we could only really have conceived on the actual night of dtd (O day). I could be wrong though - just curious! Hope this makes sense?!

You'll get your first +OPK 8 - 48 hours in ADVANCE of O. But for some ladies you can have a + over 2 or 3 days. So it is in fact possible to get a + on the day you are O'ing. I get other symptoms too, where I just KNOW when I'm O'ing, but it's impossible to nail it down to the hour, so to speak. I've just know what my 2 day window is :)

JenB are you PG?
