I have been getting cramps really badly for a couple of day's. Could I be ovulating? My discharge is also heavier. Thanks

I get what they call "middle pains" ovulation pains--i get mine 5 days outta the month. They say 5 days is not normal--mostly 3days or less.

Yes there are usually cramps when your ovaries relese an egg. When your ovulating, there is uaually more discharge and its thinner, because it makes the sperm easier to get through the cervix to the egg.

It depends on how much of the human growth horomone is in your body, the closer you are to starting your period the more accurate the result of the test will be.

Sometimes it takes a little longer to show the hormones in urine. My daughter had to wait until3 weeks after missed period to get pos test.

If you get too anxious about waiting you could go do a blood hcg test at dr or hospital, more accurate and sooner results--just around 2 weeks after conception I think.

Good luck--if its what you want
