Ovulation cramps???, should it hurt this bad?!@?!?!?@?@#

Ok, this is on behalf of Cyndi (MomtoMegan&Alyxandria) who is practically laying on my floor curled up in a ball in pain.

background: She's not menstrating currently (that was 13-16 of this month) but she currently has cramps so bad she is convinced she's dying. She's taken some pills but it hasn't helped (maybe b/c that was like 2 min ago). She says these cramps hurt worse then AF cramps (she's currently moaning in pain)

Question: What's going on!?!? Are these ovulation cramps (seems awful soon) and if so, should they hurt that bad?

Any help would be much appreciated!

(And before anybody asked, and this is TMI) she's had 2 BM (I only know b/c she just told me) and she says she's NOT pregnant (I asked and she cursed at me).

And feel free to laugh, it's ok

Not laughing but I can tell you that they hurt like %$#@ for me too - YIKES, not every month but maybe every second month - Yes I understand!!!!!!

Sounds like ovulation and no its really not early she (i counted to be sure) is on day 11 of her cycle so it could that her body is getting ready for it or that she is ovulating.. I have HORRIBLE pains also

Thanks guys! She said the pain pills are starting to kick in and she feels better that she's not alone.


And don't worry, I'm sure Karma will kick in and next month I'll be in a world of hurt for laughing. But I gotta get them in when I can.

My doctor called it 'accute ovulation'????. Happened to me a few times before I had kids.

Hope she's feeling better.




edited to add: Now that I think about it,,,it happened a few times AFTER I had my ectopic pregnancy.

They are gone now. It was never this bad before I had Alyx. It is like every other month that they are horrible. Usually it is only on one side, but today it was on both. Oh I was miserable. Thanks for all of your support and comments.

I'm glad you're feeling better.

I feel you there... I was in a similar position over here today thanks to my evil ovaries

I tend to have the worst ovulation pains on the months after I have had cysts. Those are the months when my entire leg on my righthand side feels like it's going numb. My best friend said that she had a lot of the same problems but that they all disappeared when she first became pregnant (3 years ago) and have stayed gone since then
So I'm thinking... pregnancy = a cure to all my menstrual woes... me = time to get pregnant!
