Ovulation cramping..?

Amanda
Is it possible to feel the ovulation pains/cramps before ovulation happens? I use the clearblue advanced digital ovulation tests, and it has been saying high fertility (flashing smiley) for about 4-5 days. I got a flashing smiley for 4-5 days before my peak fertility (solid steady smiley). 
In a nutshell, I got the flashing smiley just now, but I feel the slight cramps similar to those I got when I ovulated last month. Can cramping happen before ovulating?
