suffering with headaches... ov/preg or af related?

[1moretime]

Hi lovelies,
These past 3 days i have woke with a headache & had them on & off throughout the day. They arnt severe enough to take painkillers (well i did yday) ...but im aware of them.
I midway through my cycle atm.
I have irreg cycles 34-45 days long and im on day 22. I had ewcm on day 10 but no other symptoms.. last 2 days iv had cramps & little backache too. Feel like ov or af pains??
I was just wondering if anyone else notices they get headaches when they ovulate or when preg or af is about to arrive...this is a new one to me.
Or i could be coming down with something i suppose xx

Sorry im on day 23. X

I get headaches when af is due to arrive, last a few days...sorry might not help you much! But for me defo af symptom!

Thanks rainbow either way if it is a sign of af then at least my cycles will be a bit more regulated....my last cycle was 56 days long! I have pcos and am on metformin.
Was just interested to see if anyone else does get headaches at certain stages of their cycles.

For the first several months after coming off the pill, I had severe migraines around ovulation. I think because the fluctuating hormones was so new to my body after 15 years of the pill regulating them. I ended up getting prescription migraine medication which helped a lot. However, after about 10/11 months, they just stopped! :-))) Hope yours do too! Xo

Thanks Lindsay81
Im a bit baffled as i have quite a bit of dc again....i had ewcm on day 10 & today i have the watery dc.
Glad to hear your headaches stopped hun :)

I often get a migraine or a headache a day or two before AF apparently it's due to the drop in hormones. It's become a warning AF is on her way for me :(

Thank you for your posts...i guess af will be showing soon! Xx

Thank you for your posts...i guess af will be showing soon! Xx

Well as iv noticed alot more dc today...not ewcm but lots & have cramping in my left side. I bought some ov sticks in town & done one at home. There is a line on the test window :) its not as dark as the control window..but can def see it.
Does this mean ovulation is near??
Xx

This is my opk test from this afternoon. Xx

I figured out my headaches were from my conception vitamins. Could be that?

Im not taking any vitamins at the min hun xx

1moretime it could be... but there is no way of telling until you get a proper positive (test line as dark as control line). My test line always looks like that throughout my cycle, then goes really dark at ovulation! If you are getting more cm then that could mean it's close

Hi hanflan thats what i was hoping would happen. Do you think i should do another tomorrow or leave it until Sat?
Iv had lots of cm today, sorry if its TMI but when i wipe the tissue just glides
Cramps have been on & off all day mainly in my left side.
Xx

Sounds very promising! Keep dtd just in case. The LH surge can be so quick you can miss it, so do another opk tomorrow. I do mine twice a day at 1pm and 7pm to make sure I catch the surge!

Ohh im glad you said that...i thought it would only get darker each day!.
I was going to wait until tomorrow or Saturday before doing another.
Thank you :) we will dtd as much as we can :-)

hanflan done 2 more opk but still only faint??
Got more dc today which has gone from creamy, to watery & now fairly stringy. My tummy is so bloated (may be wind tho)
