Ovulation cramping..?

Question

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?

Answer

You most certainly can feel ovulation pain at that time.

Answer

Last cycle I had severe pain on right side only during ovulation dr said probably a functional cyst but there's no need to worry about it 
Yesterday got my first pos OPK for this cycle and started cramping like month prior but now it's only on left side 
I've never experienced this prior to last month and I'm 29yrs old have 18m old son and haven't been on bc since 2008 
Went to get checked out by the obgyn and they did pelvic exam/transvaginal ultrasound and regular ultrasound all is good

Answer

Yes, a small percent of people do experience some cramping around ovulation.
