Please can anyone help? Im 34 and have been TTC for 2 cycles, so still very early days. The last 2 cycles I've had, I've had a 'peak' (solid smiley) on clearblue ovulation tests but the cheaper opk strips have been negative at this time when I've double checked with them. On both cycles, 2 to 3 days later I've got a positive strip opk... had anyone else had this? This cycle, I had peak on CB on CD15, then positive strip OPK on CD17. Could it be that the CB tests are more sensitive, so picking up LH earlier? Or 2 LH surges? When do you think i ovulated? Seems so weird that it's happened twice in a row... maybe I should stick to one or the other, but then I worry I might miss it! My temps are kind of all over the place. I put both ovulation tests in as positive and it has predicted my ovulation as yesterday, although CB peak would make me more like 3 or 4 DPO today. We BD everyday across the 6 days so hopefully had it covered either way... Please help! Thank you in advance x

I haven’t used the cb but those strips were 100% spot on for me

That happened to me, I’d always get a static on the clearblue at least a day or 2 before my peak cheapie strip, I think the clearblue might pick up the start of the rise maybe? A few other ladies have said the same! I would count dpo from the cheap strips xx

They are definitely more sensitive than the strips, I’ve had a static today and still negative on the strips. You sound like you’ve covered all bases anyway 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Thank you all so much for this, it's really reassuring as I was beginning to think there might be something wrong with me!
