6 days of flashing smileys on clearblue OPK

[mrsrichy]

Hi everyone :)
I've had 6 days of flashing smileys on the clearblue OPKs and have now run out of sticks! I've tried 3 chemists and they dont have any in, so will try and get some off Amazon.
I guess my question is... did anyone else have this many flashing smileys before the static (or more!?).
It's my first month of properly tracking ovulation and its driving me a little crazy already. My cycle was slightly longer last month I think due to work stresses, so i wouldn't be surprised if it was similar again this month.
Just hoping for some positive stories :)
Thanks in advance!

The first month I used them I had 9 days of flashing smileys, I now typically have 2.

When I get flashing smileys I also test in the evening after a 4 hour hold and I tend to get my static then.

@mrsrichy hey! I'm on 4 days of flashing now! In the past three cycles I've had 18, yes 18 flashing, 3 flashing and 13 flashing 🤣🤣 x

Thank you so much for replying. Good to know it's not just me then! I'm trying not to obsess over them but it's so hard not to isn't it. Really trying to just go with the flow a bit more :)

I say every month I'm going to relax! I don't, I get worse!!! I'm onto day five of flashing :( I do use cheap opks during the day through, as my peak always comes in the afternoon, and if I think I've got a peak then I will test on the digital xx

@mrsrichy how's it going did you get your static x

@AnxiousAnnie86 I didnt buy any more in the end. Really really trying to be a little bit more relaxed, it's so hard though. I had slight pains on Friday so I'm assuming I ovulated then, but cant be 100% sure.

Have slightly different opinions to my DH as to how often we should be DTD... not really sure weve covered it enough this cycle :( I guess time will tell!

How are you getting on? Did you get your static in the end?

@mrsrichy I got it yesterday but cheapies haven't been fully dark so don't know what to think....

I know what you mean about husbands, I told
Mine I got the static and he just went "oh okay" that's it 😂

@AnxiousAnnie86 aw so exciting, fingers crossed for you!

They dont get it do they! Think mine just assumes we only have to DTD once at any time in the month and we'll fall pregnant! If only!!

I completely obsessed over testing last cycle, so hoping I can try and wait it out to see if AF arrives this time instead

I used to get 6-8 days of flashing! I've fallen pregnant twice and both times using the cheapies only.

Yes. Carried on anyway, had sex daily, now have DS2.

I regularly would have between 10-12. I have a long cycle of though which is anywhere between 35-45 days. It didn’t affect my ability to conceive though.

I fell pregnant in the month I never got a static - I had about a week of flashing smileys before it went back to the blank circle.

Ah these replies have made me feel so much better and that there might still be hope :)
