How do you know DPO?

So I was using Clearblue advanced ovulation. I had 8 days of flashing smileys before I ran out of tests and never bought more because I was frustrated and they’re expensive (we BD the 4 days leading up for glow predicted ovulation and again yesterday (after 3 days off) in case I ovulated late).

I think I missed up the reader by testing too often and not doing long enough holds (this is the only opk that says specifically to use FMU). When I ejected the strip and let Glow read it said positive the day of my predicted ovulation in the app, and I had EWCM and high sex drive. But I never got a positive test...

Thoughts? How would you determine your DPO?

Do you think:

1. Just didn’t ovulate this month

2. Didn’t continue testing long enough and probably ovulated a little later

3. Should go off of Glow’s predicted ovulation

4. Other- Tell me in the comments!

It’s hard to know if you truly never got a positive because you couldn’t test anymore. If you had several days of blinking face I would say most likely you still ovulated

I went through the same thing bought the expensive ones kept reading high fertility. Tested with the cheap test strip for another week every morning and got a positive today. I kept testing and I am done buying the expensive ones.

So you got a positive long after the high fertility reading on the expensive ones? Or you were testing with cheap ones at the same time?
