Trying To Conceive, Have Cramps After Ovulation. Normal?

I've been trying to conceive for 3 months now. This month a couple days after ovulation which was a week ago I started getting cramps, normal period like cramps but now it's moved up to both sides about equal with my belly button. This morning it was rather sharp and woke me up. Should I be worried or is something normal?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
If you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation, then there is possibility of pregnancy.
And the pains you are having could be due to implantation etc.
In the absence of pregnancy the pains can be due to hormonal changes or there could be some possibility of infection.
And now it is early to comment about the pregnancy.
So you wait till your expected date of periods and if you miss the periods go for pregnancy test once. Start taking folic acid tablets from now-onwards.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
