Help with Clear Blue Advance OPK Please!

[cosmos1001]

Hi everyone,

Id really appreciate some advice please!

7th month ttc, first time using clear blue advance digital ovulation. Unfortunately my cycles range from 32 - 38, so i started testing on the 7th of this month, had one day blank circle, and 11 flashing smiley faces!!

Rung Clear Blue last week, they informed me to continue testing until the 26th - finding the daily testing all a bit exhausting emotionally! :(

Have attached a photo of my strips (some days i tested twice!) Can someone help me make sense of the lines please? I'm sure they are getting lighter and not darker!! :S :(

What CD are you on now? The penultimate one from the bottom looks quite dark so you might be nearing it? Did you take a second one that day just in case you missed it?

If they are from top to bottom I would say the lines are getting darker and you are close to a static smiley. You shouldn't pay too much attention to the lines however when I am close to ovulation my lines do get darker - I wouldn't say you are far off so do keep testing! I don't use these - I use the pink clear blue which detect your two most fertile days. So no flashing smileys just an empty circle and then two static smileys when most fertile. I use these alongside cheap opks to confirm peak fertility. It really has helped me as usually my app predictions are slightly out so having confirmation with the sticks has really made a difference!

Hi @Juno231 - thank you for getting back to me so quickly, i'm on cycle day 23. i haven't tested in the afternoon since last week, as CB informed me to keep testing.. and i was worried id run out of tests! I have enough strips to keep me going till the 26th currently!

@FayLiv - yes, sorry, i should have been a bit clearer, the strips are the 1st (top) to todays (bottom). thank you, that's so helpful!
