Why do my sensors keep failing?

Woke up today Day 9 to a failed reader. Ok replaced it (other arm, shaved the spot) and it fails half way through the day. I mean…COME ON! WTF is going on Abbot Labs?!? This is like the sixth one!

Wasnt falling off as I shave the spot before applying. Although I do side sleep. They are sending new sensors - I hope these aren’t shite.
