Opk Question

I need someones insight, can't get an answer anywhere else so I am hopeful that someone will be able to help me here.

Took a clear blue digital OPK on 9/5 and got a SOLID smiley--that was CD 10

Took a clear blue digital OPK 9/9 and got another SOLID smiley--that is CD 14

When am I supposed to ovulate and which one do I go by?

Right I know that but my question is why am I getting positives like I am on different CD? I'm counting CD 10 as my dpo at the moment but still getting positives.

You might be able to find a FAQ page on their website, or an 800 number.  I believe the OPK test kits are designed to identify your hormone surge (check this, I think it is the lutenizing hormone) and that the hormone surge is what brings on the ovulation.  Seems the last time I read about how OPKs work, the surge starts and then ovulation is expected to happen in a day or two from when the surge is first detected.  This should all be in the literature with the OPK and also on their website, though.  It's been a long time since I read it.
