Should I Trust the OPK over egg white CM to tell me when I'm ovulating?

All my ovulation calculators said I would not ovulate until last Sunday or Monday. I was also using a CB advanced digital OPK and only got the blinking smile never the solid smiley. The strange thing is on the Thursday before last Sunday I had the tell tell egg white cm. I think I ovulated Friday. What are other peoples thoughts? I had a MC and D&C late January but I have had 2 complete cycles since then....varying from 32-30days. Any insight would be helpful! Thanks everyone!

It's possible to ovulate without ever seeing a positive opk. On top of it ovulation calculators are not very accurate. I personally trust signs of fertile CM over anything else. If you were charting your temps you could easily identify when you ovulated. Best to you.

Thank you! This is my second month TTC. If I don't get a BFP this cycle I will try tracking temps.

I would use OPKs as well as BBT charting + watching for fertile mucus for the best possible outcome!
