    Suddenly jumping up 2-3lbs overnight is usually my sign I'm going to start my period in the next 48 hours. I'm that irregular it's by far the best way of knowing for me.

    I track mine. I gain 3-5lb the week of ovulation. Then I lose it. Two week later I gain again, sometimes up to 10lb of bloat, until the day after my period starts. Totally normal

    I'm currently up 3 lbs due to TOM. Mine goes back down after day 4, AKA, The Day of All the Peeing. I get the same weight spike happening at ovulation, a phenomenon I was unaware of until I started tracking everything a couple of years ago. I'm 44 now.

    Yes it's normal. I'm almost 2lbs over my regular weight this week because of it.

    This is me too. Ovulation and tom. Ugh!! My cycles can be kind of short too, so this month I ovulated right after my period ended. 7 days of tom bloating plus another 3 of ovulation. I know what it all is, but man, this month has been discouraging!

    Best thing I ever did, seriously. Ladies, you have no idea. I am on a golf course, back nine, nowhere near a bathroom, you get the idea.

    I'm down with not shooing men away from threads about women's reproductive issues. It's some pretty basic stuff that men who have women in their life whom they love (in any capacity) should be familiar with.

    Lol, with a wife and 5 daughters, I am hardly immune! :D
