Mine said high from Day 6 I got pregnant the first month I used it. I must have ovulated very early as I had a clear positive on CD23!. Was using cheapies as well and I would say I ovulated on CD11/ 12 x

Thanks. She's 5 months now, probably should stop following this thread haha. That sounds very similar to mine. We also did the Sperm Meets Egg Plan method that month. Fingers crossed for you x

Ok so on CD10 here and still getting the ‘high’ reading on the Clearblue monitor, not peaked yet which I am happy about.
I am tracking this here so can look back.
also to add we are doing the sperm meets egg method this month using home insemination. We have done this daily since CD5.

Is it your first month using it? If it is, the machine usually uses the first go as a baseline and can end up giving less than accurate info.

The first time I used it, it gave me 'High' readings for 10 days. It settled after that though. I was using it to track my cycle for about four months before we actually started TTC. The month we started TTC, it gave a 'High' reading every day for 20 days, but never a peak. I must have peaked at some point, because I got pregnant. It was a chemical pregnancy, so I used the machine again the next month, this time it gave a few days of 'High' before giving two days of peak and I got pregnant again. That pregnancy ended in MMC at 10 weeks, and I'm not tracking yet, but if I do decide to, I'll buy more sticks and use it again.

@KittyFantastica no it’s not my first time using it…similar ish to you so sorry to hear about your chemical and the MMC. So awful isn’t it.
I used it for the first time in June 2023
i got to my 12 week scan and nothing there so MMC. Last time I used it I DTD just once on peak day which looking back at my notes was CD13 and I got my BFP CD26.

I have tested this morning CD12 and have just got my ‘peak’ with black circle thing. This month we have been home inseminating daily since CD5 and DTD on CD6 and yesterday CD11. Will try again today now I’ve seen the peak

I’m 40 we are trying for our 3rd baby

Ohh, in that case, I've no idea why it would give high for so long. I guess sometimes our bodies just start ramping up earlier.

So sorry to hear of your losses too. I'm crossing all my fingers for you @gtx1797h for this time.
