[quote=Anonymous]It's hard to guess exactly what's going on (especially without knowing what kind of test you're using or what the results look like), but I'd suggest two things:
(1) buy another brand of ovulation test, preferably one with a clearer display
(2) start charting all the markers, including cervical mucus and basal body temperature.  There's a decent chance that you're just not ovulating when your app says you should be, so watching the other signs will help you know when you're ovulating.
Oh, actually, that's a good strategy (3): get another app.  The first time I was TTC, I was using an app called "My Days," which listed my fertile days starting with day 10 (probably assuming I would ovulate around day 14, so should start having sex around day 10).  I stupidly thought it was saying I would ovulate on day 10, so I started having sex before that and then was totally burnt out on sex by the time I ovulated.  So, if you're currently using the app called "Flow" (you say "Flo" above, so I'm not sure), I think it assumes you'll ovulate on day 14, which was typically true for me, but may not work for you.

Good luck!  It took me six months of trying the first time and seven months the second time.  In both cases, there were 3-4 months of me charting inaccurately.  (Don't know why I didn't learn after the first time!)[/quote]
