Anyone experience Ovulation Pains?

So DH and I have just started TTC. I had had an IUD removed on November 14th (with no AF for the 2 years I had it), followed by what I think was bleeding from the removal and then AF on December 5th. Now I am not sure what my cycle length will be and we aren't charting (yet)... but I am guessing I am around 32 days. Or at least I was in that time frame before we conceived DD. (Side note, anyone know if your cycle is the same, close to the same, or completely different after you have a kid as compared to before?)

So heres my question, I am getting very faint, "sharp" pains just left of center, in my hip area. They last only a few seconds and then go away, but it has been going on and off for a day now. I never experienced ovulation pain before DD. So my question is, could this be ovulation pain, or am I just reading too much into what my body is doing?

Thanks

I would get minor O pains before getting preggo the first time. I had my IUD taken out Nov. 3rd, and the O pains are so intense that I have to take pain killers for them! The place you described could be O pains. You should get an ovulation predictor kit (OPK) and see if you are about to ovulate. GL!

I get ovulation pains... sometimes they can definitely be more intense than others.

I usually have O pains to the point I have to take Tylenol or something for them.

I usually don't but this month I did and they were quite painful. I have no question which side I O'd from this month. My ovaries are always a little tender around O time which sometimes makes BD'ing hurt a little.
