i dont know what it was but it sure hurt..im so glad the pain went away. i was ready for my dh to take me to the hospital. It made me curl up in a ball and take short breaths, someone at work said mabie a passed a stone. well if that what it was  i can tell ppl having a baby natural is more painfull because ive heard men say passing a stone hurts more. :)  How do men know what having a baby feels like? lol thanks for the imput guys......

i have never felt that pain, but certainly pain in the left side, i am sure due to ovulation.

i had my first IUI yesterday around noon!  the next two weeks is going to be crazy!

I get pains every once in awhile right under my rib cage on the left, it almost feels like something is stabbing my heart. It hurts more if I take a deep breath or move.  My doctor said that it is a cramp in my diapraghm, which is not terribly common for most people, but it happens to me a few times a year. It is not a problem, the only thing to make it go away is to try and stretch that area by bending back and just wait it out. I dont know if that is what you felt, but I hope the helps!

Hello!  Your spleen (which typically doesn't cause pain), intestines - could have been bad gas pains and your belly is irritated from ovulation stimulation etc so the pain is exagerated.. could have been an intercostal muscle spasm as well, if it went to your flank and into your abdomen- ?kidney stone?? At least its gone though!  thats the good news!   Good luck during this tww! i hope that a BFP awaits you at the end of it! : )
