Two months In a row now, my darkest wondfo opk came before my CBE smiley showed up. Call me crazy for peeing on two sticks, but I'm trying to figure this out, and I find it interesting that they "disagree."

Last month I got a very dark, though not clearly positive early in the day cd 15. I bought CBE smileys and retested that evening with new test and repeated with wondfo- smiley on CBE, less dark on wondfo.

This month I've been using CBEs since cd 14, thinking I'd O around the same time. Because CBEs are expensive, I'd use them once a day and wondfos another time every day. I saw nothing positive cd 14,15,16,17...and I was sure I was not going to O this month.

I had cd 19 blood work that showed I hadn't Oed. Repeated blood work cd 21 and though I don't yet have results, I was sure it would also show no O.

I kept POASing to confirm my suspicion, but to my surprise got a very dark wondfo yesterday morning on cd 22. I dipped the same sample with CBE and didn't get a smiley. Around 3:00 I tried another sample and got a smiley but I dipped a wondfo in the same sample and it was not as dark. Yesterday evening around 11, both types showed a negative. This morning, smiley and not ask dark wondfo.

I have no question that I've detected a surge here, but why do they disagree? It's strange, right? Anyone else had something similar happen?

That would confirm when you actually O'd and which OPK was right! I've only used Wondfo's and they've been accurate for me. I usually O the day after my +OPK.

I will probably try again next month, but I have PCOS and breath through my mouth at night, so temping is fickle.

If you're a mouth breather, try vag temping. (For those who have been her a while... I know I know, it worked for that one girl, made all the difference and got her pregnant the first cycle :-P this is only slightly tic )

It sounds weird, but it is good for mouth breathers since the vagina is a consistent temperature. And I hadn't noticed my PCOS messing with my temps so much as my sleep cycle. Even with a funky sleep cycle, I still noticed a temperature shift.
