So my cycle started on the 6th September, I came off my period on the 10th (which are now regular) every day since end of period I ovulation test, clear blue today I got a smiley face (not flashing one) and on Premom I have 0.32 so no where near a surge. Can someone please explain why this happens as we have been TTC over a year now and don’t know if I’m missing anything, any advise would be appreciated

Please please help

Do you test with both? When I first started I used both and it could be user error but the clear blue didn’t work for me. I kept seeing the smiley face a week before I would ovulate and it was only a 2 day one I think. In the end I just used the easy at home tests and the Premom app. I used bbt alongside to confirm ovulation so I know the clear blue was wrong for me.

That said all the clear blues are different. How big of a window is it? It could be that it gives you 4 days notice whereas the easy at home only peaks about 24ish hours before ovulation for me (18-36varies for people).

It could be right for you though, the easy at home could be rising to peak over the next day. Keep testing twice a day with easy at home. I think clear blue measures eostrogen too to pick it up earlier.

Ignore the numbers, my numbers never peak to what is expected and I have two healthy babies! I just went by when the line became as dark as the control line. Always test twice a day as my peak was also very fast and would drop back down quickly so easy to miss it I only tested once a day

Yeah I use both only since last cycle as wasn’t getting anywhere with the sticks. The clear blue ones I use is the 4 or more fertile days. Advanced digital so could be that thank you

Thank you everyone, I will continue to test twice a day, it’s annoying with the clear blue as can’t test now as have peaked so can’t test for 48 hours so will stick with the Premom sticks. I’m just not sure why I ever get high fertility just peak? So high is where it flashes and a chance but peak is like highest, I tested yesterday and the day before and I had a clear circle which means non fertile period then today straight to peak!
