Cramping?

Is cramping a sign of ovulation?  My period is exact every month, never a day early or late.  I always have a 7 day period and then exactly 2 weeks after the start of my period I have cramping.

 I checked the ovulation calculator on TB yesterday and it says I should ovulate around that time.  Anyone else have this?

Re: Cramping?

  • Ovulation pain is common.  Some women get it, some don't.  Could be a nice extra tool to know that you're inseminating at the right time!

  • I have it too and the month we go pregnant I had the pain as we walked to the parking lot after the iui. It made me feel the timing was good...and it seemed to be!

    huh. c doesn't really get them, but the month we got pregnant she said the insem felt different--more pressure or something, she said it was hard to describe. interesting.

  • Yep, I have it occasionally too and there is an actual medical term for this...it's called Mittelschmerz.  If you google this or wikipedia it you will find a good definition of it. 
  • Yes, I get the cramping around the time I am ovulating.
