Mild Cramps, Bloating In Pelvic Area. Ovulation?

Hi, my ovulation day is today and I'm experiencing mild cramps and bloating in my pelvic area. I had my period last month on the 25, so i know its not my period. I also don't see any egg white cervical mucus that some sources stated as one of the symptoms during ovulation, its just wet. Can someone tell me of im ovulating.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
What you are experiencing is called Mittelschmerz. This is pain during ovulation. This occurs due to stretching of the ovary during ovulation. It occurs very commonly in women and there is nothing to worry. It usually indicates ovulation.
Thanks.
