3 days of smiley faces in a row?! help?

[coffeekitty20]

I started my clearblue digital OPKs on CD#10
on CD#14 I got my first smiley and was soooo happy,
and now on my 3'rd day of getting those cute little smiley faces...
Im so confused!
Did I ovulate 24-36 hours after the first smiley?
or am I still not ovulating until 24-36 hours after my smiley goes away?
or am I just having the longest LH surge known to woman kind??
Any help would be very very appreciated.

Have you been temping?
I'm no pro on smilie faces, but assuming it's like the rest of the opk's it tells you when you have a surge. Didn't you take them at the same time each day?

Sometimes it just takes a bit longer for the egg to release... so the LH surge will just continue until your able to actually ovulate... that is what the OPKs are picking up. It's not uncommon for that surge to last 3 days sometimes... but just keep testing and hopefully you'll get a Neg tomorrow so you know you've ovulated

"Typically" you would ovulate about 12-36 hours after the surge is first picked up... but sometimes it just take a little longer to get the job done

FYI- here is a great site that should answer most POAS questions https://www.peeonastick.com/opkfaq.html#4

Best of luck hun!

I didnt do the temping, but I have tested at the same time every day which
was 12 am and 12 pm.
and I still have EWCM but its starting to go away.
On CD#14 it was a positive but kind of faint
on CD#15 it was very dark and
today CD#16 its a faint positive again
Can you ovulate during an LH surge?
because on CD#15 I had cramp-like pains
sort of like twinges on my right side
which I guess makes sense since last month
when I ovulated it was my left side that felt that way.

Based on that info, it would seem you ovulated already... I've not used the "smiley face" OPKs before (just the cheapy 2 line ones), but I also get a faint pos+ the day before I get a strong pos+. Then I get a strong Pos+ for about 2 days, then back to a faint pos+... which indicates I've ovulated.

You prob just picked up on the surge on the way up and down... which is totally normal... you'll probably get a neg tomorrow (no line). Might have been Ov pains- personally, I get a sharp pain on either my right or left ovary area, depending on which side released the egg...

Good luck!
