Clearblue easy OPK not working, please help
So I bought it and it didnt work. I got the manual sign which means there is an error.
I read the directions and there are a bunch of options from not enough urine (sorry TMI)  to too much urine 
So those who are experienced, if you would not mind, can you give me a step by step way..Maybe I made the applicator too wet.
I feel like a dope for asking but...I do not want to do trial and error bc they are expensive...THANKS

Re: Clearblue easy OPK not working, please help
i agree. definitely try peeing in a cup.... i had a paper cup so i did that the first few times. but when i actually got the i was away and poas. when you poas try not to get the applicator wet and make sure to hold it for at least 5 seconds.
good luck! they are totally expensive; hopefully you won't get another error but maybe if you do you can call the 800 #

Definitely pee in a plastic cup. It's a great prep for when you are pg and you have to do this before every doc's appt. 
Make sure the stick is loaded correctly.
I'd also buy them in bulk (the 20-pack instead of the 7-stick pack). Those suckers are expensive.
