Ovulation and timing confusion

I had intercourse around 10:30 am Wednesday.

I have taken 3 ovulation tests out of curiosity as this is our first month testing ovulation.

I took 2 Clearblue Digitals - one yesterday and one today.  Yesterday (Thursday) I received a solid smiley face indicating it was my peak fertility time. Today (Friday) another Clearblue Digital showed a blinking smiley indicating high but not peak fertility. A First Response Ovulationtest showed me a dark pink test line. So I am comfused. Am I ovulating now? Have I ovulated already? Or not ovulated yet?

Some of the ovulation tests can be misleading.  I believe that you are supposed to look at them as more of a "guide" as opposed to an exact science.

Good luck!

I don' t believe CB is accurate. I peed in a cup yesterday and tested with both my CB monitors. One had the low fertility O and the other had a blinking smiley. It got thrown away. If I'm not pregnant, I'll switch to First Response. I have slight cramping and spotting at 5dpo so probably not pregnant

Hi,
I can relate...this was first month using clear blue easy  ovulation tests. I started on cd10 result was not fertile...next bleaking smiley, for the next 4 days I had blinking smilings...then after 5 days I had a solid smiley....so I have no idea how to tell if those things are accurate...I am pretty sure it's impossible to be fertile for as long as my tests were indicating.
