   SUCCESS STORIES
 

Amanda

Our story is a bit different. We already had 2 boys and thought that a little girl would add a nice balance to our family. After quite a bit of research I found that practicing the Shettles method would give us the best chance of conceiving a girl but the timing would be a bit challenging. I researched the internet and found the OV-Watch. I was a bit skeptical however after reading the success stories I was convinced that this would work for us. It took us 4 cycles to conceive via the Shettles method and I'm happy to report that I recently gave birth to a beautiful little girl. I am convinced that we wouldn't have been able to track the "right" girl conception time without this watch. Thank you!!

Michelle

My husband and I tried getting pregnant for 2 years. We tried the ovulation sticks for several months which was basically a daily guessing game. I was doing some research on the internet when I came across the OV Watch website and decided to try it. We got pregnant in the 4th month of trying with the OV Watch. We had our daughter in April 2008. Thank you OV Watch.

   ASK US
 

Question: Why does OV-Watch switch to fertile day 1 when I am not wearing it?


Throughout your cycle, there are several surges of chloride ions. The surge in chloride Ions that OV-Watch is looking for comes about 6 days before ovulation. Once it detects the surge, it holds that data and processes it with the baseline levels that it has already stored in memory. Then, when the user is 4 days from ovulation, it reads fertile day 1. Since the data is compiled at midnight, that is when it will turn to fertile day 1. When you see that reading, the surge was actually detected days before. Once OV-Watch detects the chloride surge that it is looking for, it has done its job. It will alert the user to her fertile window: the 4 crucial days before ovulation and the day of ovulation. It works similarly to the urine sticks in that they detect for the LH surge that comes hours before ovulation. Once they detect that LH surge, you can assume that you are going to ovulate in the next 12 hours or so.
