What are some symptoms you get before ovulation?

Question

My question is, can you "feel" ovulation approaching? I know that you can spot and feel pain the day of ovulation, and have ewcm before you ovulate. I want to know if anyone had something different that the textbooks don't mention (like aching in the lower abdomen, feeling sick, breaking out, etc.) so they knew they were about to ovulate...?! I know people say they "feel" pregnant, before they even know for sure, so I was wondering if it was the same for ovulation. Thanks so much!!! I'm praying this is my month!!!

Answer 1

I normally get really bloated and crampy!

Answer 2

sharp cramps, more watery discharge . . .

Answer 3

Answer 4

This is what happens to me when I ovulate.   I feel like my period is getting ready to start!!!  The main thing is that I have cramps!!  But sometimes I think that it might be a bladder infection, but then I see all the "nasty" looking stuff on my panties and when I wipe!  So that's what it is like for me!! But the fact is that every woman's bodies are different!!!  So good luck!! Hope you can point out the signs!!!  I hope that is is both of our months!! Tons of baby dust blowing your(and my) way!  God Bless!!!

Answer 5

Most the time the only "symptom" of ovulation is the slightly crampy feeling before your period...and in most women there is NO sign at all.

Some feel a great sexual need on the days prior to and just after ovulation, some don't...I think that is hinged on the hormone levels of your household.
