3rd day of flashing smiley :(

edited November -1 in Trying to Conceive
Well I didn't get my solid smiley before I have to return to work. Like I mentioned before I am testing 2x a day. My timing is going to be off though. I work 12 hr night shifts. So let's say I get my solid tonight that would work out ok. 1st insemenation around 14hrs after positive opk when I get home around 8am and 2nd at 22hrs around 4pm so I could be resting for an 1-2hrs before having to go to work. I won't be able to test tomorrow until I get off home around 8am. So if I get a positive then I either have to do 1st insemenation at 8hrs or 24hrs and 2nd one at either 24hrs or 30hrs. This months work schedule is playing havoc with ttc.

    FWIW, I have never gotten a solid smiley on the ones that have the flashing and solid smiley option. I have had good luck with the test that has just the solid smiley though. I hope your timing works out and you get your BFP though!

    My first ttc month, due to work, we insemed at 8 and 28 past +opk... And BFP. I find the whole process better if I don't linger on the what if scenarios and just roll with the best options as it works out. Easier said than done, I know. Good luck!

    I was worried to, so I ordered it to arrive 4 days early and it got here a day earlier than expected. There is no rhym or reason to this it, could have been because I am a 3-4 hr drive from the cryobank. Good look hopefully we have lots of December bfp.

    No solid smiley yet. This will sound weird but I feel like the flashing smiley is taunting me.

    can you get some cheapie tests to see how far dark the test is? I would be worried you are going to miss it with testing just 2 times a day. I typically test 3-4 times the day I think i might ovulate or day prior
