Last month I felt it very distinctly, this month nothing (though I had positive opks). I assume that it doesn't mean much whether you feel ovulation or not, though it was a nice confirmation of the opks!

I voted never. Even when I was on OPKs and charting, I tried to pay attention, but I just don't think it happens for me!

I said always, but it's probably more like 80% of the time. My right side is vastly more painful than my left. Oddly, the two times I got pregnant I didn't feel ovulation, maybe it was my left side both times!

Every single time! I still use OPKs because it gives me the heads up. Usually about 12-24 hours later I get the ovulation pain. The pain lasts 24 hours, and gets really bad after a few hours, sometimes I take tylenol it hurts so bad.

Sometimes I do - I don't remember ever feeling them before DS, but now I definitely get them most months.

Love seeing that pretty much anything is normal! Will definitely pay attention to the left side/right side distinction...

@lamariniere: I feel it more on one side too.
I don't remember ever feeling it pre kids but after having my kids I feel it every single month.

I would also say about 80% of the time. I can feel it in my left or my right, depending on the cycle.

I only feel them on my right side, and I feel them almost every month. Never noticed them before I was ttc.

Yes, ever since I had lo. We do NFP now so maybe I'm just paying more attention though?

I never felt them before my dd was born, but now I feel them every month!

I never got them until after my first pregnancy, but now I do if I'm not on bcp. If I am on them, I don't (although if I'm on bcp, maybe I'm just not paying attention...)
