Do you find your O pain is more severe after having children than it was before?

I used to have a small amount of O pain before I had my oldest daughter, just a little pinching, barely enough to notice. After I had her I found that when I Oed I would get such terrible pains for a day that I had to take my strong painkillers that I take during AF.

After my second daughter my O pain is even worse and it's become really hard to actually BD during O time. I have endo which is probably part of the reason why I get it so bad but I was wondering of other BTDT mums find the same thing?

Hmm, interesting. Before I had my daughter, I definitely didn't feel O pain. After her, I definitely did but not always... I *usually* feel it on my left and some months not (I presume the months I don't feel it is when I O on the right...). Since having my son, it's still true that I only feel it on the left but, yes, it's more pronounced. I had to take painkillers for the first time a couple of months back. I have a high pain thresh hold but it was pretty bad.

I have always felt some sort of ovulation pain. It used to feel like cramping. For me I am not sure if this is because of my ectopic or what but every since I had my surgery I have felt very sharp o pains. I can't not notice them. It is much more painful but I don't know if it is due to having kids, getting old, or having had two ectopics.
