First signs you were pregnant...

ablane05

Hi Ladies,

  My DH and I had a lot of sex right around ovulation and I have been exhausted the last few days.  I have a daughter, but I can't remember when tiredness sets in, or if it's just a funk that I'm going through.  I have not taken a pregnancy test yet, I have about five more days until I bite the bullet and buy one, but I can't help but think there's a chance that I might be pregnant.  Let me know what  your "signs" were that you thought you were pregnant please.  TIA!

All of the sudden, I had a mapwork of blue veins running through my boos.  I knew a week or so before the BFP that I was pregnant.  Fatigue and m/s didn't hit me right away.  Good luck!

Everyone is different.  My first signs were sore boobs and tiredness around 12dpo.

I am 10 weeks today and still don't have any signs I am pregnant. But everyone is different. Tiredness definitely can set in that early on.

I was going to the bathroom- a lot! Didn't know that was a symptom 'til after my BFP.

Super sore breasts and a huge amount of bloat were my two first signs.

My "girls" hurt so bad the week before my BFP.

Addicted2thenot

I was actually tired ?at night & asleep before DH & some nights fell asleep while putting DS to bed

My symptoms were exhaustion, blue viens in my boobs, frequent urination at night, and I had the worst menstral cramps a week before my expected period. I was also charting and trying so I was more tuned in to my symptoms.

DereKim

no signs until about a week after my bfp...then sore boobs

Constipation.  True story.  Unfortunately, that was my very first symptom before my BFP.

 

t.bird

no signs. a positive pee stick was my first inkling.

angie212

My temps didn't drop (I was charting), and I had to pee more than usual.  I was tired, too, but I have a 15 month old and work full time, so I am usually pretty tired anyway!  I always notice symptoms when I am trying, though, so really it was the temps and the positive test that I really counted on!

I was working 16 hour days, so I can't tell you if I was MORE tired, but oddly enough, my first symptom was a sore, scratchy throat. I found out after my BFP that many women on my fertility board had the same symptom. ?Could be due to the increase in mucous and swelling of tissues.

I also got the runs!?

I had some mild crampiong the week before my period and my boobs hurt (though they always do before my period..so I wrote that one off)...didn't know until AF didn't come and I took a test.

I didnt want to drink..

Just an "ick" feeling in my stomach.  Not nausea really, just not feeling quite right.  Sore boobs started a few days after BFP.  No fatigue as of yet.

1yeartogo

I had an extremely sore back, and frequent urination.

This is the first time I have had any symptoms before 6 weeks so this rare for me but starting in the 2ww I was severely exhausted.. I slept alot and never felt rested at all.. so the BFP was no surprise LOL I also had some heartburn which is something I rarely get and when I do I am usually very pregnant

Anna&Matt

exhaustion, nausea, bloat and diarrhea were my first signs, all at 10 DPO before my BFP.

kris-dan

No signs.  I just a test because I was late.  Even to today I don't have any real symptoms except for tiredness.

dionnemd10

very very exhausted and sore bb's

Same here...I thought I had an UTI i was peeing so much VERY early on

My period didn't come, so I took a test, saw a faint line, and then took a digital and it said "pregnant"   That was pretty much it for me!  I actually didn't think it "worked" because I didn't feel a THING.

About a week after my that (4w3d or so), I started feeling tired and having sore boobs.

Soon2BMrsN

My first sign was the positive HPT.  I had no idea I was pregnant.

ToesnthesandBride07

I had an idea when I made tuna and it grossed me out so bad! I could not stand the smell in my house! This was about 4 days before I took the test.?

Confirmed with the test!?

Good luck! ?

My first symptoms were sore boobs and the map of blue veins running through them.

If you and your DH had "lots of sex" around ovulation (assuming you were charting and know when you ovulated), then why are you asking if there's a chance you could be pregnant? Of course there's a chance. You have a daughter - you're not exactly new to the birds and the bees. You know how this all works. So just go POAS.

A missed period and a + HPT!

My DH and I were in the car and I was VERY nauseus.  I never get car sick and I was due for AF the next day so I thought something was up.  Next night I POAS and it was positive.

Vuja_de

honestly? I had no symptoms, i just thought i was getting my period, slight cramping, fatigue, mood swings.

megs68

I was unbelievably tired week after O and had super sore boobs.

only1erin

i was nauseous and worn out before i got my BFP.

lindsey.evans

I was extremely tired. I would wake up in the morning and go right back to sleep on the couch. And I was really nauseas. Other then that, I didn't have anything else.

poison489

I had figured it out about a week before my missed period.  I woke up in the morning to a pressure feeling in my abdomen, and told my husband I was pregnant.  I also was very tired, and took naps, which I never do.

I had sore breasts (no blue veins tho) for a couple of weeks...when my period didn't come I really began to suspect that I was prego. I am (I think) at the end of my eigth week and, let me tell you, fatigue has really set in. Some days more than others - like today vs yesterday. That's kind of how I am being hungry all the time too.
