Question about Clomid and OPK's

I was taking 100mg Clomid Cd3-7. My RE told me to start using OPK's at CD10. So I did.......blue lines on CD10 and CD11 and today (CD12) NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
Before Clomid, I'd have a 25 day cycle, O'ing around CD11 - and holy H-E "double hockey sticks" it looks like I O'd on CD12 (had some right abdominal pain earlier today - wonder if that was O pains).
Question - I thought that with the Clomid, you'd O anywhere from 5-8 days AFTER the last pill, I guess CD12 would be 5 days - but I was really hoping that it would extend it closer to CD15.....
This was the first time that I'd ever used OPK's - (clearplan ones).
Did I really have my LH surge on CD11?????????

(Can you tell I'm confused by all of this???)

Michelle...I O early on Clomid! Usually cd 11/12 so it is very possible that you did O that early. Are you temping? That would help you pinpoint O, too!
Are you being monitored via u/s around cd12? I usually have to go in on cd10to check follie size...if I wait any longer, I get free fluid on the u/s also indicating a possible follie rupture!
