i had period type cramps Friday (low OPK in the morning, flashing smiley) and then I noticed my CM change so did another OPK which was +ive and then clear blue went to static.Eughhh said I wasn’t going to be obsessed this month but totally overthinking every twinge was meant to be in my fertile window over this weekend but I had what felt like ovulation cramps for 2 days before (weds + Thurs) so fear I may have missed the boat as we only had UPS on Friday.
Does anyone else get ovulation cramps/pain? When does it come on in regards to actually ovulating? Really don’t want to get into opk tests if I can help it as I’m obsessive.
Ooo interesting!!! So maybe Friday would have been a good day to go for it. My Clue app said yesterday was my potential ovulation day too. Agh, who knows it’s all a minefield!! That’s so weird about the pop, imagine if you actually felt it Also is the UPS abbreviation even a thing???

I had a few periods type cramps yesterday and then I had the weirdest pop in my lower left side. My first thought was, was that my egg?! But surely not?!
So I would think cramps would be gearing up for O as everything thickens and gets ready!
Also had to re read UPS a few times like, WHAT?! And then I realised it meant unprotected sex
The pop is the egg being released, it’s literally it bursting out of the follicle. I get it every month, normally alternates sides but sometimes it can be bothi had period type cramps Friday (low OPK in the morning, flashing smiley) and then I noticed my CM change so did another OPK which was +ive and then clear blue went to static.

oh wow! I knew about mittleschmertz but thought that was to do with cramps etc but that’s so cool, it was my first thought and then i thought no way!The pop is the egg being released, it’s literally it bursting out of the follicle.

It’s called mittelschmertz
UPS can def be an abbreviation now! We’ll have to do one for each delivery companyOoo interesting!!! So maybe Friday would have been a good day to go for it.

I absolutely had no idea it was a thing. It was so weird - my husband was fixing our fence in the garden, i was leant against the back door and felt a pop like when you put your finger in your mouth and pop it out?! Like that! No pain, nothing just that random pop on the left and done!Omg I’ve never felt an egg popping and I’m now I’m panicking
So strange!! How are you feeling? This wait is haaaardI absolutely had no idea it was a thing.

Oh no what makes you think you haven’t?I was feeling so confident this cycle but I don’t think I’ve ovulated and now I’m gutted
I use OvuSense and my temps aren’t as high as they should be - I thought I’d have ovulated either Thursday or maybe Friday. Didn’t use the sensor on Friday night and expected my temp to fly high this morning and it’s risen, but not significantly.Oh no what makes you think you haven’t?
I’m hopeful We’ve managed to DTD v frequently the last few days but it’s never a given is it?! I’m 1dpo I believe so here we gooooo! How about you? xxSo strange!! How are you feeling? This wait is haaaard
Are your cycles normally regular? I would wait a day or two and try again with a FR testHi all...long time lurker here. Third cycle TTC, just a bit confused and wondering if anyone else has had similar. My period is roughly 6 days late, have taken some eBay cheapies over the past few days and they’ve all been negative - however when I went to the toilet today I had some slight spotting. I’m not sure when I actually ovulated (trying not to get into OPK’s as I’ll get obsessed ) When should I test again? Should i buy a proper FR test?
Fingers crossed for you!!! I am now 8DPO, over the past few days I have had some cramps, nausea, a slight headache (yesterday), extreme tiredness and a strange taste yesterday and this morning... I normally only get some cramps and sore boobs when I ovulate. I’m trying not to get my hopes up and over think things but it’s so hard xxI’m hopeful We’ve managed to DTD v frequently the last few days but it’s never a given is it?!

I feel you! I had a good feeling this cycle but my ovulation date was meant to be today, my temp dropped yesterday so I thought it must be happening but I've had no LH surge. The past 2 cycles using OPKs I have had a surge and on the days the app predicted so I just don't have a clue. It's so hard.I was feeling so confident this cycle but I don’t think I’ve ovulated and now I’m gutted
It sounds super positive so I’ve got my fingers crossed tightly!!Are your cycles normally regular? I would wait a day or two and try again with a FR test

was yesterday the first day you used it? Perhaps it’s just noticed a dip in hormone so will regulate tomorrow?Hey Ladies,
Yesterday I used the clear blue ovulation sticks that detects 4 fertile days. Yesterday it showed a flashing smiley face high fertility. Today it’s shown a circle. I am on day 8. My period lasts for 5 days.
I will test again tomorrow but this has never happened before. Usually I would get a flashing smiley face for 1-3 days and then a static smiley face. I’m totally confused.
I start on day 6. As I’ve had a few cycles where my fertile windows starts as soon as period is over.was yesterday the first day you used it? Perhaps it’s just noticed a dip in hormone so will regulate tomorrow?
I feel super crampy this morning, and have done a little on and off yesterday. Anyone else had this after ovulation?
