Male not interested in female

I have 4 leopard geckos. 1 male and the other 3 are females. I mated my male and 1 of my females Friday night. I then mated my male and another one of my females mid-Saturday. I tried again today (Sunday morning) and my male showed no interest in my female. No tail wagging or anything. They are all properly sexed; I double and triple checked. I have heard that the females have to be ovulating, but I don't think my other 2 were ovulating. I also have read about leos being born off season, and wanting to mate off season. But in this case i would think my male would still show interest but my female would just say no. The only other thing I think could be why is my male not being ready to mate again. Is there, like some kind of "cool down" period for the male after mating? He seemed to do fine when i gave him a day. Thanks for reading, anything helps.

Sometimes nothing may happen immediately, but the male will get the job done when he "feels like it". Can you just leave them together for a day or two and then check during the next few weeks to see if she's ovulating/gravid?
