Right - aside from the pre-ov swell, since they have two ovaries, the ovaries can be active at the same time, or at slightly different times. If both ovulations occur at the same time, a large swelling occurs. If not, one side goes, and then the other, from everything I've heard.

But - sometimes the different swellings aren't as noticible, either! I think they like being mysterious, sometimes....
