First, thanks ladies for your advice on my previous topic of ovulating twice. I think what you all said happened is in fact what happened. My body geared up and didn't O but did just recently. I just have a quick question. I take CBE Digi OPKs. Do you know that the first circle that you get after getting the smiley, does the circle indicate that you most likely ovulated? I know temping will tell you best but for now I'm trying to just do the OPKs. Reason I ask is like I said, I got a smiley on Tuesday night. I got another one yesterday morning with BAD ovulation pain on my right side. Then when i got home from San Francisco last night, I took another one at 12:45am and got another smiley. I woke DH up and we DTD. Then this morning got a circle. Do you think I might have ovulated before we DTD or potentially sometime in that window b/n doing so and this morning? I guess there's really no way to tell but just curious if any of you have found any relation b/n the digi OPKs and your temping.

**ETA: I forgot to also mention that DH and I did BD on Sunday morning prior to me leaving. I know that's a long time for his swimmers to hang around but we did DTD then also.

Thanks ladies!

I don't know if this helps with the question or not. When you get the smiley :) - that just means that you will ovulate within 24-48 hours. When you test and get just a circle, it just means that it is not detecting the high levels anymore, which means either you have O'd or you will soon because the levels are down. Hope this makes sense.

ETA: IF you could DTD today too, that would be great! :)

I use those too....and the way i understand it is just as pp said. You get the smiley anf that means youre going to O and when you get the next circle, you have already Od. It is still a good idea to dtd the day of the circle after smiley bc your numbers could have just dropped low enough to not be detected by the opk. Hth....and good luck!

While I don't use the digi OPKs, I know a regular positive OPK indicates that you will O anywhere from 12 to 48 hours after your positive. I would think digi's work the same way, but since I don't use them, I may be way off! Hope you caught your eggie! I'd also suggest to BD again tonight, just to be sure! Best of luck in your 2WW!!!

Sounds like you covered all your bases with you BD on Sunday, Wednesday, and especially if you did Thursday also. GL in the 2WW! I hope you caught that eggie and get a BFP in the next 10 days :)
