Hi Michelle,

I tend to ovulate around Day 17 - 20 and I get spotting and cramping around this time too. Sometimes it only lasts a couple of days and returns a few days before my period. Othertimes it lasts all the way through to my period. Also, like HippyMum, my abdomen tends to hurt if my bowel/bladder are full.

Sorry I'm unable to answer your question...whilst we are not actually TTC, we haven't used any contraception for the past 18 months and I've never fallen pregnant...yet....anything is possible

Good Luck.
