10th Day Of Flashing Smiley 😩😩

Has anyone else got 10 days of flashing smileys on the Clear Blue Ovulation tests?
I'm on my third natural cycle after stopping Microgynon (was on it ten years).
Last month, I took a random test on day 26 and it was positive for ovulation, my cycle ended up being 38 days long (previous was 33 days).

I was shocked I ovulated this late and thought maybe my cycle would get shorter this month... But it's day 24 and still no peak so I'm assuming I'll be ovulating late again. My partner's also been away for week so no chance of conceiving this cycle.

My CM definitely seems like I will be ovulating soon. Just a bit annoying as I will now have a long wait to TTC again!

Is it your first month using the cb ovulation kit?

Last month I got the 2 most fertile day kit, it arrived on day 26 of my cycle and I decided to randomly test - it was positive.
This month I started using the 4 most fertile day kit instead - so yes it's my first proper month using it, (I only have 3 tests left now!)

I just ask because many experience the same in the first month. It needs some kind of testing phase to get to know your levels. Your next cycle will be much more accurate, as in the flashing smilies will be fewer.

I had this the month I fell pregnant with my daughter, many flashing days of smiling face and no peak but conceived my daughter. Just started trying for our second and this time went from nothing to static smiley so waiting to see what happens!

Ahh yes I've heard of this! But I've only got a few tests left now so will have to buy a new packet next cycle, not sure whether I should use the new holder or keep the old?

There's hope for me then! But I got a static on day 26 last month, I'm probably just ovulating super late again ☹️
Good luck with TTC baby 2 🤞🙂

I am sorry I never had this exact kit so I am not really sure, but maybe some other ladies in this group can help you (or maybe you find the leaflet somewhere online?)
