I knooooooooooooooooow it is super early, but it's fun to talk about anyway. Plus, it wouldn't hurt to make this a daily/weekly thread as the board gets busier!
Anyone experiencing any really early symptoms? Little things that could have been your period? Something that tipped you off before you took the HPT?
Edit - TIPPED you off, not TICKED you off. Freudian slip!
Re: Super early symptoms...
I had crazy fatigue during the TWW. Like, abnormally. In hindsight, something was going on!
I've also been getting cramping which I think is normal right now.
I experienced some early early cramping - which is weird for me -- so I thought it was possibly implantation...never felt it last time.
This week my nipples are super sore. I still pump daily for my DD and it has been more painful.
Other than that just the slightest hint of possible nausea... more like the threat.

Yes! @mslovesbo! How are you??? How is your DD doing? I hope you're enjoying early toddlerdom as much as I am...lol. Congrats to you as well! Good to see you here!
Otherwise I've been exhausted for days :-&
A few days later, suddenly felt super nauseous and warm at work. Told my dh and we joked about testing again, so I did that night and got my first faint positive. Tested again the next two days with multiples bfp tests.
Now I'm nauseous on and off, tired all the time, gassy and bloated, light cramping, and hormonal and emotional! :-S

Very tired. Took a nap after work yesterday, just couldn't keep my eyes open- which is very usual for me. Woke up feeling horrid. Nauseous, woozy, disorientated. Felt better after I ate. It's a good thing DH was working late, because the only thing that didn't sound like poison was a Wendy's cheeseburger, Fries, and a frosty.
Oh, and peeing all the time. Told DH we are either going to have to rearrange the bed, or switch sides. I can't be pinned up against the wall anymore!
For those of you with nausea, I just picked up this aromatherapy inhaler on Amazon called Quease Ease. It is very highly rated, and apparently you just smell it and nausea instantly goes away. I'm hoping it does the trick for me. Hundreds of great reviews!
Obviously you're free to post where you want, but the specific purpose of this board and thread was to share symptoms when we know we are pregnant. Yours could be PMS.
Decided with all this weirdness I better test early. BLAMO! BFP!!
Feel good May Mommies!
Oh this is my second pregnancy.
BFP! 8/28/2015
BFP 10/2/13, EDD 6/3/14
Gave birth to my beautiful son, Owen Robert on 6/4/14!
BFP #2 8/28/15, EDD 5/5/16
I'm 4w5d. Besides the nausea, the cramping, the increasing need to pee ALL THE TIME... and the aversion to chicken (pretty much the only food I ever ate) and coffee (my LIFELINE)... I'm crying several times a day.
TV shows. Thinking about when we tell our families. Thinking about seeing the blob on Sept. 25th for the first time. Looking at my dogs face... tears. All the time. I woke up from my first pregnancy nap and went to the garage where my husband was ... and he asked me if I was okay and if I needed anything and I just lost it. Rivers of tears. I cried because he's so sweet and asked me what he could get me, because I miss coffee, because I'm scared I might grow a beard ... all of the irrational things.
Any other early pregnancy/FTM an emotional mess?
