Clear Blue ovulation test question

Hi everyone,
This cycle I decided to try the clear blue ovulation tests (with the smiley face).
Yesterday I got the plain circle and today I got a flashing smiley face. My question is how many days did you get the flashing smiley face before you reached 'peak fertility' and got the solid smiley face? My last period started on 3rd August.

Usually 4/5 days, but sometimes as many as 10 once. It's definitely worth dtd every other day while you have the flashing smiley just in case. And keep an eye on CM to see if you seem to be gearing towards ovulation.

I'd suggest testing morning and evening now you've got the high result too, as I've got my peak in the evening on a CB before a couple of times

About 4 or 5 usually but I started to test twice a day until I got the solid face, we dtd daily when it started flashing.

I have PCOS so I had about 15 in a row. It was so expensive! I moved to one step opks after that as they are cheaper and you can see the line getting darker for yourself so I think it’s better really.

I had 1 day flashing smiley and then straight to solid. I fell pregnant that month too so I'd say they are pretty accurate!

Ok thanks for your replies. I'll take another one this evening and then twice a day until I see the solid face. It's kind of exciting seeing the smiley face Smile
