OPK - flashing smiley

[CurlyPie]

Has anyone used the clearblue advance opk with the flashing smiley?

I usually use a traditional opk and have always get a dark line.
This month I decided to try digital OPKs. The package has 10 sticks. When I tested my first 4 had no face and the next 6 days were flashing smileys (cd 11-16). I didn't go buy more tests because
I usually ovulate between that time or at times earlier so Im confused as to why I didn't get a solid smiley. Anyone have an experience with this test? Now I'm questioning if I even did ovulate and starting to think that I'm out this month :(

I use the CBAD (what you are talking about). I haven't ever had a problem with it, but I had a problem one month with my CBFM which works very similarly. That month I had endless Highs and like you never got a Peak. I was using cheap OPKs as well, though, and I got positive OPKs. I stopped testing with the CBFM after I got my temp rise confirming O. I think the fact that I had very dark urine some days and very pale urine others is what confused the CBFM. Could that be the case for you?

I do see women who get too many days of Highs but usually it's bc they have PCOS and haven't actually Oed, and they eventually do get a Peak. But your cycles are normal length, right? Are you still having fertile CM? What CD are you on now and how long are your cycles on average? Pink swaying can often delay O so I think it's possible you haven't Oed yet.

i have seen this happen several times and is one reason i am not a fan of them. maybe because swaying can delay o for some? I would dtd now and then again in 4 days, repeat till af arrives or bfp
