So, this is my first month using the CBE FM, and I'm also using OPKs, because I am on Clomid which can affect the CBE FM.

The FM gave me an egg this morning, which means it detected my LH surge. But the OPKs didn't even get a second line on them, suggesting no LH surge. (by the way, I've NEVER gotten a positive OPK). In fact, the darkest the line ever got was two days ago when it was almost, but not quite as dark as the control line.

I'm confused. Which should I trust?

Also, because of the Clomid, I have really bad mucus, but it looked a tiny bit stretchy this morning, but not EWCM by any means.

Thanks for the well-wishes

I had a rise in BBT this morning, so if that continues, we can probably say the FM was correct. Its also the first time I've ovulated since April, so I'm really hopeful.

Now for the 2WW!!!

I was going to say go with the monitor, I have one as well. Did the same thing you did used the monitor and the opks this cycle. I didnt get a pos opk until really late in the day. At first there wasnt even a second line on them until around 8pm that night when it was pos. Sounds like the opks dont work for you.
