OPKs

Hi

This is my first month using OPKs and my second month of TTC. I have a question regarding OPKs. My period cycle is around 28-32 days. I am trying to track when I ovulate. I am currently on CD9 and have done OPKs since yesterday. My question is:

On CD8 I did a test at 4pm which was lighter than the control line and not dark enough to detect a +.

However today on CD9 I did a test at 4.30pm-ish which was barely visible and a lot lighter than yesterdays result. 

Is this normal? I was under the assumption it would become darker and darker until my ovulation day. Could it be I've missed the mark for ovulation??

    Please see above images. Top one is CD8, bottom is CD9.

    Hi , I can’t say if you have ovulated or not but if the test continues to get lighter or nothing shows up then I’d say you have ovulated early, keep testing for a couple days and maybe test at lunchtime and around 7pm just in case it’s a faulty test xx
