O Pain and gender?

[atomic sagebrush]

Someone asked this on another thread and I don't remember ever having a specific thread just for this.

Do you get strong O pains and if so, what are the gender of your kids?

Mine:

DS1 - no O pains and never had them at that point.

DS2 - I had just started getting them that year occasionally and had bad ones the month before I conceived but then nothing the month I did.

DS 3- I had strong pains most months and had them that month.

DS 4 - SUPER STRONG O pains that then went right into super strong implantation cramping (conceived twins that month)

DD (I do not think I'll ever get used to writing that) - I had been having major O pains quite badly even tho I wasn't even ovulating much of the time - I think my body was making eggs but not releasing them regularly. I had strong O pains that month that lasted for a week after O (so I think may have been partly implantation again). But nothing compared to with DS 4.

DD1 - no O pains
DD2 - no O pains
this buba - major cramping on my right side, but I was already 5-6 weeks pg. No idea what that was :think:

is it true that O pains from right side are girl and left side are boy, or is it other way round!!! I think I read something about it on here!!!

[TTC5]

I have never noticed them up until this one. Had massive pains from the left side.

No, it isn't true. You can have O pains from both sides regardless of which ovary releases an egg. 15-20 eggs in each ovary develop every month and only the most developed one or two are released. Sometimes the pain on the ovary that doesn't release an egg is actually worse because ovulation can relieve some of the pain .

DS1- mild O pain
DS2- no O pain (He was a complete surprise)
D?- very bad O pain and tenderness on the L) side which lasted for 4 days leading up to O. Confirmed at 6 week U/S that I did O on the L). I only usually have very mild O pains, so I thought I must have a cyst or something.

I had o pains when I conceived DS1, DS2, and DS3....but none with this LO. Although, I was taking Fiber to sway and had TERRBLe gas pains w/ them...so I may have, but just didn't notice.

[dloui128]

I had O pains with DD1 really bad on the right side
No O pains with DD2
I had O pains with this BFP and it felt like they were on both sides

[Cinss]

No O pain with DD, i guess now i am more aware of my cycle i feel them.

[onebigwish]

DS1 i never had O pains...he was a surprise Baby
DS2 middle O pain

[cherryswirl]

DS 1 have always had ov pains and rarely have a month without them. Got ov pains that month when he was conceived but fairly mild

DS2 super strong ov pains!

[ForeverRestless]

DS1 no o pains
DS2 no o pains
#3 : ?

This time around I felt very strong o pains from the right, that started the day after my supposed ovulation and lasted for 3 days straight. They were strong, burning and sharp and made me think I still had to o. Infact opks were even darker and a lot of ewcm.
Maybe I had a second surge righ after the first one and the other ovary tried to release the egg/s for 3 days? Or even managed who knows?

Anyway, I read something interesiting here tho. The ovary that didn't release the egg might cause more pain.
So that was maybe what happened to me.

No O pains with both of my sons. Pretty strong O pain with my daughter. But whole pg was much heavier physically.

Talking about ovulation. I was wondering. Let’s assume for a moment that Ramzi is correct/true. Wouldn’t that mean that eggs from the right ovary will become boys (well not the egg itself lol) and from the left girls? Since I assume an egg from the right ovary will implant on the right side of the uterus. And eggs from the left will implant on the left. But.... I don’t believe this theory because there are women with only one ovary and they have both genders! So, is Ramzi debunked by this?

Ramzi is debunked because I saw him with my own two eyes guess people's ultrasounds wrong - and not a few people, either. Repeatedly over the course of a few years. At that point I started digging deeper and found out that his "study" all of us online go nuts about, was never published anywhere for other scientists to review and then try to recreate his findings (and if you ever wondered, as I had, why other ultrasound techs weren't using his method if it was so accurate, it's because it's not even remotely a proven thing and doctor's offices don't go in for stuff that isn't proven.)

There's somewhat of an old wives tale, compounded by some con artists who sell people this gimmick in countries beyond the reach of the law, that you ovulate from the right if you're going to have a boy and from the left if it's a girl. But that's been disproven. Doctors get eggs via IVF from one ovary that become both boys and girls, and just like you say, women who have only one ovary and have different gender babies, of which there are many, debunk the notion. One study seemed to find that in a 3 month pattern, women who ovulated L, L, R did have boys 75% of the time, but that's not any sort of reliable way to sway (and even if it was, a person who wanted a boy would have to test ovulation every month and then wait for the lotto to come up when they hit L, L, R, which is basically like a slot machine!) And to my knowledge no other studies have found this. So as far as I'm concerned, Ramzi has not panned out and while it's fine if you guys want to guess for fun, don't read much into it.

Since my first try at HE diet, I've been having mild O pain. I never, ever had them before, not even with my 2 DDs and couldn't tell when I was ovulating except by calculating my cycle and basing myself on EWCM's clues.

I don't know if my diet changed something with my cycle or if age is to "blame".

Thanks! I've heard this from several blue swayers!
