When I'm ovulating it feels worse than period cramps. So bloated too. And a total beeaych/hormonal. Why does mother nature make me this way if I'm supposed to be wanting to get down with my husband? LOL
Anyone else?
-
I feel similarly. But at least the cramps don't last nearly as long as my AF cramps!
But I swear last week I gained 2 lbs and it was pretty much all due to bloating (I'm back down this week).

Me. We're not TTC yet, but I can't imagine DTD on actual ovulation day. I'm in so much pain that sex sounds horrible to me. I get terrible pain on whichever side I'm ovulating on, plus pelvic/low back pain, and bloating.
-
So basically, we feel terrible when we ovulate, when we have AF, and even when we conceive! There seems to be no get out of jail free card when it comes to womanly pains!
I'm bloating today like I ate for three people at a buffet
-
We skipped O day because I was so irrationally angry at something stupid there was no way I could DTD. I also then cried late about the ending to a basketball game. It was a crazy emotional day.
-
@snowjewelz: EXACTLY! There are no breaks for us.
@littlek: I'm so angry at the world for no reason and want to poke a hole in my uterus to deflate it right now. Sex sounds absolutely terrible.
-
I'm sorry. have you talked to your OB? If its really that painful there may be an issue that needs to be addressed.
-
@T.H.O.U.: No....I felt this way before my son was conceived too and I had a successful pregnancy so thought this was on the spectrum of normal...it's not debilitating but it literally feels like I"m about to get my period.
-
My ovulation pains have always been worse than my period. I feel like a crazy person, and I hated every second of it. Hoping for some change when I get to that point again PP!
-
SO painful. I'm also a horrible person when I ovulate...so hormonal.
-
Yes!! I said this on the POAS boards, but my cramps are just terrible for O. I have a whole 2 weeks a month where I feel cramp free.
-
This has been me ever since I had DD. The cramps are about the same as period cramps and kind of wrap around from my lower back to my lower stomach. The cramps last a few hours but I have bloating too that lasts from a few days before. The irony is when I ovulate (and look and feel my worst) is when I am in the mood to DTD the most. After ovulation that really plateaus. Our bodies are crazy!
