ovulation after pregnancy

[cheeseandcrackers]

I might sound stupid.. but I'm just curious if this is normal or if this could be something else.

Woke up with major cramps this morning and my lower stomach hurting, it's actually still tender.

I had my first real period a few weeks ago (post pregnancy) and after taking an ovulation test (leftover from last year) it was positive. Before I was pregnant I never experienced this. I've heard of women being able to tell when they ovulated, but it was never me. Anyone experience anything similar?

after babies my hormones got crazy and every little ovulation and pms symptoms was really magnified

I get a small cramp on one side around ovulation time, but nothing major. I would think major cramps would be more related to a cyst on the ovaries or an intestinal problem than ovulation pain.

Yep. I never had ovulation cramps prior to pregnancy but now I do.

Bonus: Money saved on OPKs?

Well I guess it depends on your definition of major cramps. It was more like cramping like you would on your first day of period. I hope this is not the case though.
