sharp pain in or near right ovary? 7 weeks post partum

I gave birth to our first dc 7 weeks ago, normal vaginal birth, no major weirdness or injury, small episiostomy.

I'm not even sure this is related but saying in case it might be. I now have been having an increasingly sharp stabbing pain in the area of my right ovary - not saying that's what's hurting but feels like it.

Does anyone know what it might be, or have any experience of this? I've been doing pramactive and baby dance classes since being signed off, plus exercise dvd and some very gentle jogging with the pram. Nothing that feels like I'm really pushing myself though..

Mittelschmertz / ovulation pain? Sometimes mine are quite painful. But that's also the area of the appendix, and It could also be an ovarian cyst; I've had appendicitis and a torted ovarian cyst and they felt very similar. Keep a close eye; if it gets worse or if you have any other symptoms or feel unwell in any other way, get yourself checked out.
