Starting around lunchtime I began having major ovulation cramping.
Two thoughts:
1. Yes, this is good. The medication is doing its trick.
2. Oh, no - I hope I am not ovulating right now. IUI isn't until tomorrow morning.
I'm sure (I hope) it is just my body getting ready to release those eggs and not that they are actually releasing. Plus, I'm sure they know what they are doing and 36 hours post Ovidrel is the best timing. I am just being paranoid, I'm sure, but I can't help it. I just want this to work so badly. I just can not get over at how strong the ovulation pains are - and they are on the side with the two eggs. Maybe that is why they are so intense? I don't think I've ever ovulated two eggs before.
How about any of you out there...what do you feel after triggering? And how soon??

Oddly enough, I never felt anything because of the trigger...but I did IVF, so I was full of over 30 eggs the first time and over 20 the second...so, you know...you're already feeling a little different by that point, lol.
I only triggered once, and I felt nothing except a very slight flutter in the afternoon when I had taken the trigger that morning, and I am pretty sure I made that up, but feel I should mention it in the interest of full disclosure. I also mention it because it is what made me have the same thoughts as you, which were, "Don't be ovulating yet, we haven't had sex yet." I mean, in that general time frame, of course. We were schedule to have sex that night and the next two nights.
To be honest, I think they have the timing down--36 hours after the Ovidrel shot is what I have always heard. But to be very honest, I didn't get pregnant, so I must admit that my stories probably aren't all that reassuring to you, except that my doctor's office has done this a billion times and I really trust them, so I wouldn't worry about the timing. I'm sure you're fine.
GOOD LUCK!! I'll be checking back often.
I'm hoping that everything went fine with the appointments. I'm on pins and needles waiting for your results! Here's to positive thinking and positive tests!
*hugs*
