A question about ovulation...
I always get achy in my back when I'm ovulating, since I started paying attention to it it has always been on the left side. A couple of months of being off birth control I was taken off guard when I experienced the ovulation pain on my right side - the following month I had it on both sides. But it's been 3 or 4 cycles since then and the pain is always on the left side again.
What do you think? Am I ovulating from the ovary on which ever side I'm having pain? Identical and faternal twins run in my family, could I have ovulated from both ovaries that month? I'm sure many of you can't say for sure what it is, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts.
I've been meaning to do it for a while, but I want to get an OPK just to find out if I ovulate before, during, or after I get my regular backpain. I don't do any tracking of body temps or anything because I stress really easily, so I just keep a calander of AF dates, I don't currently track my ovulation pains (wish I had thought to a while back) but I will start tracking them next cycle. I don't want to stress about conceiving, though I subconsciously stress about everything, I had more then enough stress when we TTC back dec-april - I was in the emergency room during the holidays, I was working 50+ hours a week when I was a part time employee, I was taking 17 college credits, and we moved (not all at the same time, but most of them overlapped). I think tracking too much will be an overload for me.
