So this morning I received my first positive LH test. We DTD this two days ago and his morning (before I got my positive 😕). The Femometer app is suggesting I continue testing every 4 hours now. What is the point of this?

If you already got a pos opk, I don't see the point in continuing to test especially if you already had your attempt(s).
I think 4 hours after a positive is unnecessary, but I wonder if they suggest testing further at all in case you have a longer surge?
My LH tests are back to negative (2 positives yesterday) and my BBT didnÂ’t show any sort of spike this morning. Does that mean I am not going to ovulate this cycle? Or can it still happen in a day or two?
You may still ovulate soon or your body geared up to but couldn't for whatever reason. Most likely you'll O sometime between today and the next day or two. It can take 12-24 hours after O to see a temp shift.
Ok. I’ll just keep temping. Thanks for your response!
On average most people see a shift in temp/temp spike the second morning after day of pos opk. Ovulation generally takes place between 12-48 hours after initial (first) pos opk, but can be even 72 hours. That is why its suggested to dtd at pos opk as you'll generally o the following day (which gives time for sperm to capacitate in order to be able to penetrate egg) and see a spike in temp the second morning confirming basically that o has occured the day before. Best conception odds are with a 1-o or 2-o attempt which will normally be achieved by dtd at pos opk [emoji4]
Was it a positive (peak) or a "high" fertility reading?? I don't see any point testing every 4 hours UNLESS you were only in "high" fetility and the app is waiting for the peak. I'm not familiar with that app so I can't say for sure.
It was a Wondfo testing strip
Ok. Then there is no point in continuing testing after the positive unless you have reason to believe it was a false positive.
