Ovulation Pain
| Tue, 09-16-2003 - 2:08pm |
Hi all! I am happily married 32 year old mother of a beautiful 8 year old daughter and my husband and I have been trying to conceive since July. My question is, "Has anyone else experienced ovulation pain??" I don't think I'm very knowledgeable about what this means when it occurs because with our daughter, it was a surprise, so I thought I would be able to get pregnant the very first time we tried. I had been on the pill for the past 8 years so I didn't experience any pain when ovulating. Now I realize that that might be what this side pain is from and in the past 3 months whenever it's occurred, we abstained from sex because I was in pain. Should this be the time that we do try to conceive??? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know how much help I will be, but you certainly don't have to have pain around the time of O. I never have once, but have 2 sisters that do every month. Just from what I've heard, it's not too painful and doesn't last long at all. I'm sure others will chime in with more info for you. But I would suggest charting your temps and CM and see if the pain you have coincides with those. I would also talk with your Dr. because pain could mean something else.
Good luck!
