Any using clearblue advanced?

Normally use the normal clearblue digital opks that pinpoints a day or two of peak.
Thought i would try the advanced for a bigger fertile window... started on CD9, as I forgot CD8 and was O - which is fine. But today (CD10) I have quite a lot of cm, which is somewhere between watery and stretchy and still got a negative.

Bit confused as I thought I would have a rise in Oestrogen to trigger the cm? FF has put today as a fertile day regardless.

No idea which to believe 🤷🏼‍♀️

I could be wrong but I think clearblue use the result from the day before to determine the result so if your levels were already up on cd9 I don't think it will work properly. Maybe try an IC if you have one?

I am! First month ttc. I had 2 blank circles, 5 flashing days (high) - so bloody annoying!! And I got my peak this morning! Was worried I wasn’t ovulating as had a bad month last month! I’m usually 27/28 day cycle but last month was 31. I’m on CD15 so must ovulate CD16 or 17! X

I have read you can have between 1-5 days of EWCM before ovulation. I had it for 2 days before my peak.

I did! If that's the digital one. I got the smiley face later than predicted but I got pregnant so it must have been correct!

Well I'm on CD16.
Had Low fertility since CD9; with the last 3 days of wet cm and ewcm. Was expecting the flashing smiley, especially yesterday, but nothing.
Then today I got my static smiley... Whilst I'm happy I can read my body and I'm ovulating. I may as well have bought the standard version, as it didn't give me any high days 🙈

@Pudding01 you can have some of my flashing smileys I am on day 8 of flashing smiley, I am ready to through that mocking smiley face out of the window! 😂🙈

Pudding01 · 07/08/2018 07:15

Ohh @FlapJackered 😂🙈😂🙈
That would drive me mad too! I thought these tests were supposed to make it easier? Lol Do you track temps and cm too? X

Tell me about it! Pulling my hair out! I started testing with IC opks (just when I thought I couldn't get any more crazy about it!) and got a pretty strong line this morning but not positive so I am really hoping that means it is on its way. 🙏🏻
I do temp but my temperatures are all over the place so aren't really helping. Neither is CM, it seems to go through a whole cycle of consistencies in one day 🙈😂😂
That's great you have had your static smiley though, on into the tww!
