Do you feel it...

[OceanPrincess]

... when you ovulate?

I never have, that I have been aware of. I have two bubbas, both conceived with me tracking my cycle just counting days and lots of DTD round CD14 (bout CD10-20 TBH)... I have paid attention to CM and have definitely noticed EWCM on certain days, but I have never felt ovulation. Haven't used FF or any sort of OPKs before.

My previous cycle (first one since DS was born) was 32 days. Today is CD13. Just now, I went to the loo, TMI nice glob of EWCM. As I was walking back to my desk, I felt a little twinge, sort of like a stitch, up high on my LHS, sort of between my bottom rib and my the top of my hip bone. ITMS?

Would have just written it off as gas () or a stitch or similar except for what I'd just seen in the loo.

What do you think - does that sound like an O pain?? What does it feel like for you?

I get crampy around O so yep i can feel it. It feels like a stitch, different from AF pain.

That sums up my O pain to a tee. A definite 'stitch' feeling, not super painful, but always aware it was happening.

I never relied on that pain alone though, always tracked my temps and CM as well.

Rarely. I did with DS2. It was crampy all afternoon.

I have a note about a stitch on the RHS on both on my conception charts for DS1 & DS2. Just like you described.

Fascinating!!! (And I mean that seriously)

I've never noticed it before, if I have ever had it. I wonder why it would have felt so pronounced today? Or maybe because I'd just been to the loo I was in the right headspace to notice it?

It was only a flash of pain, all gone now, feels normal again. Doesn't seem to be on going...

Interesting. I've got some OPKs at home, maybe I'll use one when I get home.

I've had months like that... I've got to get up of my chair and been forced to sit back down and almost breathe through the pain! Other months, a tiny stitch like feeling... Strange hey?

[Mumma T]

Yep feels like a stitch for me too. I never noticed it until I was "watching out" for it. I get plenty of odd pains here and there so I imagine that I just wrote it off as something else before.

Sounds like O to me!

I'm like the PP, usually get hardcore pain the days leading up to and on O day. First time I ovulated after 15 years on the pill it was so bad I ended up in the ER.

It's like a vice on my right-hand side and usually brings a friend, lower back ache. I reckon I almost feel the egg 'pop' on O day, as I get an intense stitch and then it just goes.

It's pretty cool to feel that O is actually happening I reckon, even if it's a bit hurty.

I do agree with that!!!

Yep I get it bad.... I can even feel my cervix opening (very strange pain lol)!!!!!! I get shooting pains in my bb's and a headache.

I am on a 55 day cycle so I get pretty excited with these symptoms!!

[Aries]

ooopps double post sorry!

[OceanPrincess]

Lol Aries I'd get excited too

What does the cervix pain feel like? Last night we were DTD and it was kinda hurty...

I used an opk pee stick thing tonight and it was negative...

[Aries]

Ummm it sounds silly I know but it took me ages to work out what it was! Its like a stretchy, stabby pain in the cervix - like its moving position and opening sorry if its tmi

I cant use opk's.. with pcos they are always positive lol Hopefully yours will change in the next day or so

[Arcadia]

Do you want a boy?? Go dtd right now!!!

I feel ovulation on my left, so both babes have been conceived on that side. Ds we planned for a boy and with dd I knew she would be a girl because we missed the ovulation day.

Bodies are awesome!

[OceanPrincess]

That's not TMI!

Sounds a bit different to last night. Boo I forgot all this stuff!

[OceanPrincess]

Hmmmm so if I think girl I should wait a day?

Thanks Arcadia! I felt it on the left too...
