Probably a silly question
So I got a smiley on my OPK last night. It was the first time i tested for O this cycle bc I kept forgetting to stop and pick up a new kit. So obviously we last night. This morning I took another with FMU and NO smiley. So basically I just caught the surge last night.
My question is, now that there's no smiley, is the timeframe up? I know the egg can live from 12-24 hours so I'm just wondering if you only get a smiley BEFORE the egg is released. I plan on again tonight and tomorrow night for good measure. Should I count today as 1 DPO? or tomorrow? I know that OPK does not mean I definitely O'd but for DPO purposes, when should I start counting??
If this is confusing, please let me know, I will try to re-word. TIA!!!

I do track my CM, and I'd say it's pretty EWCM. We're using Preseed this cycle also, so I'm hoping that helps out even more!! No temping yet, I am not a morning person at all and I don't think I could remember to take my temp every day. Hopefully OPK's and good ol' counting days will do the trick!

I would just do the basic and see what happens...especially if you see EWCM!

Re: Probably a silly question
The smiley comes before O, usually 12-36 hours before. So I would count tomorrow as 1dpo. Also I would tonight and tomorrow night, maybe Wednesday too if you have any energy left! Good luck!
