My friend has been pregnant twice (miscarried first time) and got pregnant first time on she got smiley face both times. However, healthy couples only have 25% chance of conceiving even when conditions are ideal so I wouldn't be too disappointed after just a month.

The mistake is assuming a smiley face means you definitely ovulated. It's possible for your body to gear up to ovulate but it doesn't actually happen. Ovulation tests only predict that you *should* ovulate shortly after getting a positive result. You can't know if you actually did ovulate unless you chart your basal body temperature and saw a sustained rise in your temperature, by having your doctor run a 21 day progesterone test, or having an ultrasound.

Hi, I know this question is over a year old now, but I'll answer it anyway. I started using this product in May, and I got pregnant the first week of August, so I used it for 3 cycles total. I used it the way the package instructed (more or less), and I was able to make one box last 3 months. Good luck and babydust to everyone!

Got my smiley face on CD20 of a 28 day cycle! Almost a week later than I expected! Eleven days later got a positive pregnancy test and am now 17 weeks pregnant with my first child! It worked the first month with a little help of course!!!

Sorry for the late response. Honestly, I don't know. I started the tea either on the last day of my cycle or 1-2 days later. What I read was that the tea would regulate your cycle if you weren't regular. That has been my situation for my whole life. I got pregnant before the next period. Try and go to their website. Which is what I did before I bought the tea. There was list of the most commonly asked questions and I believe you could submit questions as well. Good luck!

No I would follow what the monitor states to do, count from Day 1 and usually by day 6 or 7 of cycle it starts having you test, it doesn't matter length of period monitor will get to know your own unique body. I had been ovulating every 14 days and the first month I used monitor I had peaks on Days 17 and 18 and got pregnant first month, the monitor does know what it's doing �

Hello, I started on CD 20. My period started 16 days after that. I have really wacky cycles, unfortunately my pregnancy did end in M/C. I already started drinking it again in hopes of a sticky bean:-) GL

I have heard of this happening, and it actually happened to me on my first month of use while trying for our second child (I used CBFM to conceive our son two years ago, and am currently pregnant after using it again). How many months has your wife been using the monitor? My understanding is that for the first cycle or two, the monitor may be 'getting to know' the hormone fluctuations of the particular woman using it and may therefore not show a peak in the beginning. If your wife just started using it, I would say to maybe try again for another month or two. If this happens repeatedly month after month, it may be an indication that she's not ovulating, and visiting a doctor for some fertility blood work might be helpful. I have also heard of women getting pregnant on cycles where the monitor doesn't show a peak. Best of luck.

I tested after lunch and after dinner about 6 - 8 hours later. I also tested twice a day when the result line started to get darker. When the result line was just as dark as the test line I knew I was ovulating within the next 48 hours.

I'm not quite sure, I ordered these for the ovulation strips (which worked great) I am now 4 days past ovulation so I will start using the pregnancy tests soon.. Which made me do some research on how soon I should start testing.I read a lot of reviews etc; it has been confirmed that these pregnancy tests can actually detect as low as 8% HCG! Which I find AMAZING!!! Hope I was able to help a little :) GOOD LUCK!!!

Umm, I never read that and used the test strips with warm urine in a plastic cup. I let it soak for the few seconds and then layed flat for the 5 minutes.The strips worked well for me. I am currently 10 weeks 3 days pregnant after one month of use and only being off the pill for 3 months (on for 15 years straight). Think if you are truly close to your ovulation, warm or room temperature will not matter. Plus why let the urine sit while you wait for it to cool down. Hope this helps and good luck. Used the pregnancy tests the same way.

Ovulation test strips are to help you see the hormone surge that occurs before ovulation.(so to answer you question for the most part yes) For most women that means you should be ovulating 24-48 hours after having a positive strip. The best way to know (when or close to when you normally ovulate) is to keep track of you temps by charting, sites like fertility friend can help you with that. Ovulation strips are a tool that can make charting and pinpointing ovulation easier.

Unlike with pregnancy tests, first morning urine is not the best time to test for ovulation. Luteinizing hormone is synthesized in your body in the morning and will not appear in your urine until early afternoon. I have had luck testing around 11am and after. I have taken an ovulation test early in the morning with negative results and got a positive result a couple of hours later. If you test only in the morning you may miss your positive test.

These predictors work by detecting a surge in the luteinizing hormone (LH surge). Your LH levels will vary throughout your cycle, but ovulation only occurs after the large LH surge. These variations can show up as faint lines at any time during your cycle, but during your LH surge the test line will be as dark or darker than the control line. If the test line is not as dark or darker than the control, then you are not in your LH surge.

It depends on your cycle. My directions told me that i needed to start testing at cycle day 10 which was 5 days after my period ended and i have a 30 day cycle. I didn't get a positive until cycle day 22 though because i ovulated late. If you know approximately when you ovulate, i would start testing 5 days before and as the line gets darker, start testing 2x a day.

I would take that as a definite positive! Congrats! I use these strips all of the time, and I just found out myself that I was pregnant. I saw virtually phantom lines at first, but a couple days later they were faint. Don't take a home test today that you buy at a store though because it might not show up with your diluted urine. Take a home test (I recommend the clear blue digital) with your first morning urine tomorrow. You should definitely see a pregnant result. Good luck!!

That happened to me once and I confirmed with a wondfo test that it was indeed positive. I would assume its positive and that you will ovulate soon. So get busy!

A couple of guesses: 1) your follicular phase is longer than average, 2) your lutenizing hormone is rising/high but you aren't ovulating, 3) faulty test. Is this your first month using the tests? Continue testing to see what happens so you have a rough idea to either talk to your doctor or get a new pack (or consider tracking BBT for even more information). Good luck!

It is possible that you will have a light pink test line throughout much of the month as a low level of LH is usually there. After you get that dark line indicating the LH surge right before ovulation, it will lighten up again and eventually go away before your cycle is set to begin again
