DPO help

Hi, probably the most stupid question, but please could someone help me with DPO. If I had a static smiley face on a CB ovulation digital on 21st May, how many DPO am I today? Does it could from them, or is it just after I would have actually ovulated? TIA

Once you get a positive ovulation test it means you will ovulate in 24-36 hours afterwards. So ovulation should be 22nd may so today you are 11dpo.

It will actually be counted from the time you first get a positive opk. So you'll actually be 12dpo.
That how all the calculators work with going from ovulation not lmp including those with the midwives.

Amazing, thank you both! I’ll work with 11/12 DPO! Should I be getting a positive test if I was pregnant by now or could it be negative and I still be pregnant?
I didn’t have all this with my first, he was a little surprise. I seem to have a lot of symptoms this month but tests are showing negative 🤷🏽‍♀️ so putting it down to just being over cautious of symptoms that happen every month but maybe never took notice of it

Some people get positive tests from 10dpo but others don't until AF is due.
