? for those who have ever had a BFP (SAIFW)

How early did you get pg symptoms?  I've heard of some people not getting symptoms until  6 wks, and some people getting symptoms as early as a week before their missed period.

    I had implantation cramping for about a week after my FET.

    My boobs hurt really bad starting about 3dp3dt and haven't stopped...I just recently (last week or so) got blue veins in my boobs and nipples started changing. Yesterday I got really nauseous too. I'm not even 5 weeks pregnant (I do think I could have more than one in there though).

    My no fail symptom before a bfp is that I pee all the time. Starting a few days before the bfp I get up in the middle of the night at least two times and several times a day. It's the only symptom I get.

    I had no symptoms with my first BFP.

    With this BFP I started getting sick at 3dp5dt (before even testing positive).  My boobs were no more sore than they would have been on a BFN cycle - and I always get super veiny boobs no matter what.  The sickness was my clue.

    With both of my BFP's I had very obvious lower abdominal/ute cramping and pinching pains that I knew were obviously different that AF cramps I also was peeing alot. I got veiny boobs but not until atleast 5 weeks.

    Like LCB, my boobs were also hurting very bad even before I tested. Like 100 times worse than they do with AF. I knew something was up since they were so sensitive. I was also throwing up. These symptoms were all around 3 weeks.

    Honestly, no real symptoms before bfp, and not really even many now at 9 weeks for me.  Sore boobs, and a little yucky sometimes in the morning.  Oh, and I guess my appetitie - I'm eating like there is no tomorrow!  I'm pretty lucky, I think.

    My no fail symptom is fatigue.  I mean, tired enough that I need a nap during the day.  That usually started about 10 dpo.  Hope this helps!

    TTC #1 w/ endo since Sept 2005. After many losses, a lap, tons of meds and tons of testing and, one failed IVF cycle, we were blown away with a surprise, sticky BFP...it's a girl!!! Lilypie Second Birthday tickers

    I was on progesterone supplementation (suppositories), so that likely caused the sore boobs in my case...

    But probably at 4dp5dt I developed an insatiable thirt. I have never felt so thirsty in my whole life. Plus I started peeing more...(and it hasn't really stopped). I tested the next day and got my faint line.

    I had weird twingy cramps- which I suppose were related to implantation- but who knows- you overanalyze everything...

    To be honest, I had NO symptoms and still barely dont (mild AF like cramping at 4.5-5 weeks) I really thought this cycle was a bust.  The only thing different was this cycle I didnt get a UTI unlike the previous 2 IUI cycles where I did.  Good luck!!!

    My boobs hurt something fierce the week before AF was due, once I got my BFP I had some cramping but nothing else.  I was thirsty all the time and my sense of smell was insane!

    Nothing really obvious that clued me in to being preggo. Our beta was right at 4 weeks so there wasn't a whole lot of time for symptoms, I also didn't have major symptoms all of 1st tri so no early symptoms ended up not being a surprise...
  • Options
    I was waking up in the middle of the night to pee starting a few days before my beta.  However, I had convinced myself that this was just nerves causing insomnia because I was getting - on HPT.

    For my first BFP my only early symptom was a little back pain. Later on I had m/s.

    For my second BFP my only early symptom was OHSS.

    Typical systems that all started after 3 or 4 wks: soar boobs, peeing 24/7, major lower back pains and with the last set of twins...m/s really bad.

    P4 affects my body a lot.  Even during unmedicated cycles I sometimes got super sore boobs.  For my chemical in June 09 I had NO symptoms.  For my BFP in January, my boobs were a *aching* already when I got my BFP at 5dp5dt.  However, like I said above, I've had that even during natural cycles.  A week or so after that the fatigue started to hit and the veins appeared on my boobs and it became obvious that my body was going through "changes".  The bottom line though is that for me, the only true EARLY symptom I had was a + pee stick.

    I seem to get some cramping around 9DPO, but all 3 times I thought it was AF coming.

    When I actually stayed PG, I didn't really have any symptoms.  I got tired later on, but mostly wouldn't have known I was PG if I hadn't been paying attention until 20w or so.
