I don't think I am pregnant but I've had the SAME feeling. At first I thought I was just ovulating, I usually feel it only in my right ovary... but then the strange ovary feeling didnt really go away. I felt like a pressure/slight pain thing especially when I sat on the toilet or when I would step with my right leg. This lasted for about a few days but I didn't say anything because it wasn't too painful, just weird.  

Then when I had sex with my husband it hurt on the right side deep inside, like my cervix? It was strange because I never experience pain with sex. Again this pain seemed to be in the same area as my ovary type discomfort.  Also, this feeling didn't hurt extremely, I was able to finish having sex and then later told my husband it hurt on my right side. He was confused. I am confused.  

I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years, I have irregular cycles and NEVER know when and if I'm actually ovulating... I just took a pregnancy test on July 1st and it was negative. My last period was June 13th it was normal in length and heavy-ness. I have had very sore breasts for about 10 days now and my period isn't due until sometime between July 13-25 (again I am irregular so I never know exactly when I will have it)

What do you think? Am I pregnant? If I am why didn't the test say so. I am so lost. I have never experienced these kinds of symptoms/feelings before...  I WANT to be pregnant SO much and I am afraid my subconcious is making me think these things are pregnancy related.

If they aren't because I'm pregnant then what the heck is going on with me??

I know the odds of being pregnant and having normal periods and a negative test are really low. But lately I am wondering if that is the case... or if I'm just desperately seeking a way to be pregnant.

Anyone?

My husband and I tried for 4 years to get pregnant.  I have very irregular cycles as well.  I also had frequent pain in my "ovary areas."  I was eventually diagnosed with PCOS.  When I ovulated, my ovaries hung onto the eggs and in turn, the eggs became the cysts.  I was in a lot of pain, and could tell which side I had ovulated on once my cycle started because the cyst would already be forming and the cramps made it worse.  I also had other symptoms, like the tender breasts along with the irregular periods.  I was checked for everything under the sun as well, from Endometriosis to cervical cancer.  The doctors tried putting me on birth control to help, but I insisted I be put on something else that will work the same, only allow me to get pregnant.  It took 6 months and 2 different doctors to eventually get me on a fertility drug.  It was called Clomid.

Have you ever been checked for cysts on your ovaries?  In some women, those cysts come and go and don't hurt at all.  In others, just a little cyst can be incredibly painful.  

I've been in your shoes, and understand the frustration of not being able to get pregnant, as well as not even knowing when ovulation actually occured!  (*my cycles ranged anywhere from 30-45 days)  I know that stress messed with my cycles, as well as the anticipation and hope that I was pregnant.  Sometimes I thought for sure the pregnancy test was just faint...or wrong.  Also, I was told that since you aren't really ovulating when your ovaries are "hanging onto" your eggs, it causes symptoms of pregnancy.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel.  After 6 more agonizing months of pregnancy tests, and wishing and hoping the fertility drugs worked, we FINALLY got pregnant!  

Talk with your doctor about the problems you are having.  They should be able to help.  (*I didn't have to go to a fertility specialist.  My OB/GYN was able to rule out other potential reasons for not being able to get pregnant, and also prescribed the Clomid.*)  Make sure that you stand your ground with them about wanting a medication that will not impede your ability to get pregnant.  I found a few doctors that thought "The Pill" was a magic drug that would fix everything, even if it was just for 6 months.  There are other options out there, and if your doctor won't consider them, find another doctor!  Good Luck!!!
