Opk Test Strips
QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
Hi I Have just started using opk test strips and heard that these could also be used as an early indication of pregnancy - eg if you got a positive opk test result say 10days after ovulation this could indicate early pregnancy? is this correct? I have three children already but this is the first time I have used the test strips for ovulation prediction,
thank you,

Weird periods: Could I be Pregnant?
QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
My husband and I have a son who is three years old now and we have been trying for a second for a year. I have always had the most predictable period; it was always for seven days and always on the 15 of the month. But for the last 4 cycles they have been random and shorter. One month it will be the 14 the next it will be the 21 and only last about 3 days.Why Would Hormone Levels Remain Low?
QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant now for the past 6 months. My last period was on May 15th 2004. I have had loads of pregnancy symptoms so I took a test which showed a weak positive. So I decided to wait a few days take another and that came up negative. On June 26th I started spotting and this was only light but last for about 30 minutes a day for 5 to 7 days.
