Am I ovulating early, or what?

Hubby and I have been not not trying to get pregnant.

The first day of my last menstrual period was March 15 and my cycle runs from 28-30 days long usually. We have been having sex every few days since my period ended.

Today my tummy has been cramping off and on like I was ovulating or about to get my period, but it seems early for both.

What gives? Any ideas?

Ps- I know it is not just me eating something bad...

Update:

So, any ideas why I am cramping if it is not ovulation, and obviously way too early for a period?

It is so strange. It feels exactly like I am about to start my period... But I shouldn't start until the middle of may. What gives?

    Generally speaking, you can't ovulate "early". You ovulate 14 days after the start of your last period or later.

    Now some women have a natural bio-rythum that they do ovulate sooner than 14 days. But what ever is thier "normal" time between menstration and ovulation stays at that interval, or ovulating is delayed (usually because of stress, physical or emotional). But ovulating "early" (as in DAYS early) is highly unlikely.

    The only exception is if you had anovulatory bleeding. Basically, if you had a period, but didn't ovulate two weeks before, it's possible to get your period and ovulate immediate after words (and perhaps even during).

    But if you KNOW you ovulated last month, then you can't ovulate "early" this month.

    that's achieveable to ovulate 'early' as in 9 or 10 days after your era. no longer each woman ovulates on day 14. yet this could make your cycle shorter. for each woman in the full worldwide, the time between ovulation and a era beginning is 12-sixteen days. that's call the luteal area. seem it as much as verify greater. this is totally achieveable to ovulate on day 9, yet once you probably did then you definately would not have a 28-34 day cycle. This basically isn't achieveable and the individuals who're asserting that's are incorrect. in case you have a 30 day cycle you may have ovulated between day 14 and 18.
