I think so? It's the stick one with circle, flashing smiley, solid smiley when ov.
I was low fertility (circle) up until last Wednesday. I had a solid smiley in the morning, but a circle in the afternoon. I had no high days before this. Then I left it, thinking I had OV as I definitely had OV pains the night before, and the circle was because the LH surge had been that night and it'd been a quick one.
I decided to do it again this morning, no real reason, part of me enjoys tracking it like that. First pee of the day showed OV, and then I did one about 2 hours later and it showed high. I used two separate digital testers as ofc when it registers peak it sticks on for two days.
I'm starting to cramp a lot now, doesn't really feel like OV pains, more AF pains. Come on body, what are you doing?!
That's wierd! Yeah I must have the same as you then. Fingers crossed it all falls into place soon!#KiamaHouse0 -
Huge congrats Cath_Ster :j0

Aileth - If you have the 'posher' CB ovulation test, which it sounds like you do, you can't keep testing for ovulation after a smiley face until after you've had your period - something to do with it working on comparison to previous tests that month - read the Amazon/Boots reviews for more info. That's why I buy the cheaper CB digital ones ( I did a tragically large amount of research into opks before I purchased).0

Thanks Amy, I suspect that's probably the case. I'm just paranoid I haven't OV.

Well, I may have made a mistake at the weekend. I decided to ignore whatever current allergic reaction is plaguing me and go in for some valentines bd-ing regardless... well, something not so great happened.... I'll give you all a clue, it starts with a 't' and rhymes with 'bear'...
:-(
So I've benched myself for a while. I'll just have to hope that the little BD-ing we managed during my fertile window was sufficient... (I highly doubt it)0 -

Ouch! That sounds traumatic! I hope you heal quickly!
Aileth - yup, same ones. Day 5 flashing smiley today. Where the hell is ovulation????
Husband has had to go to work till Thursday evening, so I now I have to hope that there was enough over the weekend to catch ovulation or hope I don't till Thursday. I'm getting irritated with my body to be honest. Really annoyed!#KiamaHouse0
