O Pain?

Ok so for 2 days I have gotten an LH surge w/ovulation tests. Today it was much darker and I'm also getting a pain (o pain?) Do you think I ovulated today with the pain and dark line?

This is just a guess but, yes.

Good Luck.

There is still a debate on whether the pain is really O or just ovary being stimulated for O (trust me, i've been involved in it). Some doctors/specialists swear that the pain IS O others think it is just ovary geing ready to release it. Each woman is probably different anyways. I do not chart or use OPK but both my doctor's have told me that pain is in fact O, so I'm going with that this cycle. Felt pain yesterday so BD like crazy the day before and yesterday afternoon. If that doesn't do it, next month i'll try a OPK combined with the pain to make sure when O comes.

In your case, if you had the dark line and the pain from O, girl, THAT was you O'ing.

Good luck.

Tons of baby dust to you.

I would say yes too. Usually with a positive OPK you'll ovulate within the next 48 hours. If you are feeling a pinchy feeling or mild pain, usually that's the egg releasing. That's what I have read anyway. I'm no expert. What's your CM look like? Usually right before and during o it will be EW. However, sometimes on the day of O it will feel kinda dry (meaning even though you are o-ing, the best day to bd would have been the day before when CM is EW). But, that doesn't mean you can't conceive. What's you CP like? I don't check mine, but a lot of women here do and maybe can give you some advise.

I just posted a discussion that is similar to what is going on with you. The first two days of positive OPKs, I thought that the second day I ovulated, but I didn't "feel" anything. The third day (yesterday) I got a + OPK again and then last night, I felt a dull, achy, sometimes pinchy pain on my right, and then this morning on my left. I am on clomid (150 mgs) and have/had two mature follies on my left ovary and one on my right. Did I truly o yesterday? If so, that is way late for me, like two-four days. CD18 in a 28-29 cycle. I too have heard that it is the releasing, but then I heard something about nerve endings causing the pain? I don't know. Wish I could help us out! Now I have to sit and wait and pray that DH and I caught it due to our bding last Friday, this past Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and/or last night! ;) My husband said that I am killing him not knowing for sure, but he knows we have to "hold up our end of the bargain". Good luck!
