ok so I am here on CD 15.. the last couple of days I have not been feeling to great. I took clomid on CD 5-9 so if my body were textbook I would be Oing CD16-19. However anyone that knows my story knows my body is nowhere near text book..

(CD13) Sunday: I was VERY crampy, tired, gassy and I was acting like jekyl and hyde with my mood swings! negative OPK (8pm)

(CD14) Monday: much less crampy, but still crampy none the less, negative OPK (11:30am)

(CD15) Today: very crampy again, only on the left side, kind of nauseaus my mood is ok so far..

I temp so you could look at my chart, but with PCOS, my temps are all over the place (and OPKs arent always reliable)

What are/were your O signs/symptoms?

BTW: I've never O'd before.. ever.. so this is all sooo new to me and I know you ladies are like an encyclopedia of knowledge!

TIA!

About 12-24 hours before I O I get a few really sharp pains in either my lower left or lower right side (depending on which side I'm ovulating from). They'll usually be REALLY bad for a few hours and then taper off... I also have mega mood swings for a few days before I O - one minute I'm sweet as a peach and the next I'm giving Jer the silent treatment and he doesn't know why. lol.

[**jessie**]

I rarely get any very noticeable O signs. My main one is extreme horniness. I find myself having naughty daydreams about nearly every man I know that's not family! It's horrible but I can't help it, lol. I also usually have some watery or ewcm, although not tons of it. Sometimes (50% time) I get cramps. Mine feel like AF cramps and not the one-side twinging that many women feel.

ETA: I am always really cranky and everything pisses me off around that time.

[*Mrs.J.2011*]

It feels like AF cramps.. but only on 1 side! my abdomen feels "heavy" for lack of a better word. this is a little TMI, but I feel like I've almost wet my pants! lol

[♥Ashley♥]

I always have pretty intense cramping and I am very bloated!! I really hope you o Kaleigh!!

ETA: Also my sex drive is out of control!!!!

Cramping {Usually my indicator to start the OPK game} which is almost always felt on the left side and into my legs, my face breaks out, and I'm snippy to whomever I'm around. Also, a migraine is a classic clue for me! Oh, yes and the last one. I don't want DH to leave the house for any reason, because my umm desires change at the drop of a hat!

Good luck!!

I get ovarian pains, sometimes on both sides and sometimes just on one. They are usually pretty strong but not always. I also get EWCM, well except for last month. Hmmm there might be more but i can't think of it at the moment.

[*Mrs.J.2011*]

I am really bloated like I look and feel like I've gained 10lbs! my sex drive started being out of control only like 10 mins ago... I think I've sent chris 10 text messages already about how we arent going to make it to his parents for dinner tonight! lol A headache I do have, but thats normal for me.

TMI alert!

I just checked my CP and its soft, open, and high.. like to the point I almost couldnt reach it!! and my cm went from watery this morning to EW just now when i checked!!!

Sometimes I'll get cramps on one side of the other. Last year I kept track of which side they were on and I feel them more often from the left. They don't feel like af cramps, they feel like tugging or pulling and they'll gradually increase in intensity and then be gone suddenly (probably cause that's when the egg's released, huh?).

I also break out, have increased sex drive, and sometimes I'll feel ansy like I have too much energy but have to sit still. And hot flashes. This is the only time of the month I"ll have cm, usually for about a week prior to O'ing.

Mind you I don't have all the symptoms all the time!

[A*LOT*OF*HOPE]

I had all over cramps!!! This was my first month O'ing as well!! It started like 2 days before O and the day of!! Watery CM, oh an I had a positive OPK so that helps!! My cramps weren't primarily on the left or right side thogh, the were all over!!

[Mars]

My only concrete O symptom was ovulation pain. I would get it for about 6 hours or so. It didn't hurt badly but it was a bit uncomfortable.

Mine started about 2 days ago also! did you have your progesterone checked on CD21?? Because if I O today or tomorrow.. that only gives me 5DPO for the progesterone levels..

[alicenwonderland]

For me i get sensitive "down there" and have a really earthy smell that I can still smell when fully clothed. This is when I get a pos opk.

A day or two later, I get bad acne, tiredness, and my cervix goes spongy and high. Oh yeah, also have frequent bms and bloating. No cramping though.

[~Caroline~]

My boobs tell me I'm about to O. They get very sensitive and my nipples get itchy sometimes.

[**Jenn**]

I get bloated and sometimes constipated. My biggest indicator though is very intense, sometimes excruciating, ovulation pain--I'd rather be in labor than have ovulation pain. It's not usually isolated to one side but can range from one to three days long.

My skin would break out a little, some months I got just normal O pains, some months I would be in the hospital for pain control because it hurt soooo bad to O (those got better the older I got and farther off of BC I got), I always seemed to get a a streak of blood in my EWCM---it would look like a little red string in my CM--it was weird, and horny, horny, horny, horny!

[*Mrs.J.2011*]

So just a little update.. I'm on CD18.. yesterday I had some tugging and "twinges" still on the left side, but VERY different feeling than the cramping I had earlier in the week. I also broke out yesterday, not a lot, but I had 3 "blemishes" and I have really really clear skin normally. My temp was also a little up today, so I played with FF and if my temps rise again tomorrow and even dip just a little on sunday I will get my crosshairs!! not even the dashed ones, real crosshairs! We didnt BD last night (even tho I really wanted to.. I was just too exhausted and had been sleeping for 2 hours by the time Chris got home from work!) but we did Mon, Tues, and this morning!! I could really use some "temp rise" dust!! I really want an almost birthday BFP (I would be testing 5 days before my birthday!) and for Chris to have an almost birthday baby! (my EDD would be 3 weeks and 2 days before his birthday!)

[~Caroline~]

Here's some temp rise dust for you!

[HopeWishWait]

Good luck!!

[soImarriedAnerd]
