Ovulation Pain question

Not asking if I ovulated, since I have stunk it up with temping LOL..

Just curious about what experiences women have with ovulation pain. I don't usually feel anything, but early Saturday morning I had a dull ache, almost like a muscle ache on my left side by my hipbone.

I had a OPK+ Friday and Saturday- so I suppose it could be O pain but just as well could have been my dinner or random muscle twitches.

I usually have a lot of cramping and bloating before I ovulate, it's really uncomfortable and hinders how much I feel like doing.  Oddly enough, this doesn't happen about every 3rd cycle or so.  I also sometimes feel a sharp pinch around where I imagine my ovary is.

Based on your + OPK I'd say that was O pain.  That is what I feel - dull, sometimes sharp, pain on one side, usually lasting a few hours.

I too get some cramping and bloating around O. Sometimes dull aches with random sharp pains on one side. I believe I O'ed over the weekend and on Sat I seriously felt like my period was coming.

My O pain usually feels like period cramping, but off to one side and sometimes it can be intense.  It also sometimes doesn't last long, then other cycles it'll last a day.  It changes. 

I just mark anything that seems to be around O time and off to the side.  There's no way to know for sure if it is O pain, but I figure that if it happens around O time, then it's a somewhat safe guess.

I got a +OPK on Saturday as well and have had intermittent dull pain and cramping on the right side, very similar to PMS style cramps.

Side note:  It is too funny that are cycles are so close these past 2 months.

Same here.  It's always my left, and always by my hip bone.  The odd time I've felt a sharp stab on the right side, but it's pretty rare.

I get O pain every month, 95% of the time its right side, and its usually a dull pain. every once in a while it will be sharp  pains. Last night i *think* i was having them- quick sharp stabbing on my right side, for only 30 mins. Usually they last about a few hours. 

So far these symptoms have been mild.... Maybe I have yet to really O. (shrugs shoulders)

I've never noticed O pain before, but now that I'm trying to be more in tune with the goings on of my body, it's good to know what that pain could be.

I think they normally are mild pains. I have had ovarian cyst issues many times, though, so I often get more painful symptoms.  I've had some that lasted 3 months, but usually they disappear with my period.

This is my first O without BCP (in a LOOONG time anyways). I have been having mild cramping for the past 2 days now, but just chalked it up to random pains from endometriosis (I've had two laproscopies).

 Thanks ladies! I marked it down so it is at least in the record.  :)

NY Mama:

I got a +OPK on Saturday as well and have had intermittent dull pain and cramping on the right side, very similar to PMS style cramps.

Side note:  It is too funny that are cycles are so close these past 2 months.

Like I said, we're destined to be Labor Buddies again.  ;)

I usually have some twinges/cramping usually on the left. This month it was more severe- I thought I might have a cyst. It did go away after a day and a half.

When I'm awake and moving around, it feels like a muscle ache with a few twinges. It's usually one side or the other.

Last month, I experienced it while I was sleeping. It woke me up. Sharp cramp, lasted about 5-10 minutes and then a + OPK a few hours later in the morning.
