Re: Poll:When did your symptoms start and what were they?

  • My first two symptoms were nausea and frequent urination and both started before I even got my BFP!

  • I got a yeast infection in my 2ww, and started with the sore boobs around 10 DPO, and normally I don't get sore ones before AF. Then they grew about a full cup size. Smile I progressed to overall bloat *everywhere* and then around 5.5 weeks in, mild nausea began. It never progressed much past mild to low moderate nausea, and no throwing up, but it's more of a constant now. The tiredness set in around week 6 and now I can barely keep my eyes open past 9 pm.

  • *patiently waits* I want to know the answer to this... I feel like I have no symptoms. Other than bloat. I wish the m/s would get here so I could know things were progressing...

  • I was super bloated, starting 3 days after my BFP, but that only lasted for 2 days. But since about 3 days after my BFP I've had pressure, and cramping and the sore breasts on and off. But the sore breasts have just started being pretty consistent yesterday.
  • Mine started the day of BFP, I thought I was going crazy. Sore boobs, very tired, hungry, nausea, cramping. I was having dizzy spells before BFP and still get light headed from time to time.

    ETA: Bloating! I have also started waking once or twice a night to pee even though I pee right before I go to bed.

  • A few days before BFP I kept smelling my trash can (closed) from the other rooms in my house and kept having to empty it. 2 days after AF was late I got cramps one night, and normally AF follows in the morning. When AF didn't come, I knew I should test and got BFP, after that no real other symptoms until last monday when I woke up to horrible morning sickenss.

  • At 9-10dpo, I started having nausea and exhaustion.  The nausea lasted about 4 days then went away.  Now I'm just tired all the time.

  • I've really had very few symptoms.  I'm eating a little differently, and I had headaches for about a week before I got my BFP.  Maybe a little more tired.

    Don't worry about it if you're not having a lot of symptoms- everyone is different.

  • Sleepiness, hunger, and frequent urination started at 13DPO. I'm 4wks 3days and that's all I got. I seem to be itching all over too but that could just be dry skin...or maybe pg has caused my skin to be more sensitive. My boobs might be getting a tiny bit bigger but not enough to really tell right now. My nipples seem to be poking out though.

    ETA: I also have a weird tightness in my stomach muscles w/ slight cramping sometimes. And I am so bloated that I can't fit into most of my pants.

  • The first symptom where I just "knew", was that I suddenly had the urge to get sick, a HUGE wave of nausea took over me but then went away. Prior to that, about 8 DPO or so, I had some minor cramping/pressure feeling down below and boobs started to get sore. Got my BFP the same day as the wave of nausea. Since then....super tiredness set in around 5 weeks (yes, I can barely stay up past 9 pm) and food aversions/nausea started. I haven't gotten full on sick yet, but the constant nausea & thought of certain foods is starting to really affect me. I just can't seem to get enough sleep either - I got 9 hours last night, and I can barely keep my eyes open today! And I feel like I have the energy of a 95 yr old....
  • Nausea started at 4w3d, Sever nausea and uncontrolable vomitting started week 5. My boobs are sensitive, not painful unless I hit them acidentally. I have been bloated since my IUI, pretty sure it's from the over stim so not sure if I should count that or not?

  • Dizzy - it was my first symptom, just before my positive.  It remains to this day.  I have to eat every 30 min or so to remain upright

    sore/swollen bbs - also right from the positive, they have grown a whole cup size!  and I haven't been able to sleep on my stomach for about 1.5 weeks

    Fatigue - Right from the beginning.  I was so exhausted I had to take at least one nap a day and was in bed by 8pm.  It was unreal!  I couldn't think straight to do simple tasks at work, it was kind of scary.. thankfully this is a lot better.  I am still in bed by 8pm but I am much more awake during the day.

    headaches - this is my least favorite symptom.  I have awful headaches.. I am seeing an acupuncturist to help.

    Constipation & hemorrhoids -awful since the beginning.  I make organic smoothies everynight with 2 heaping spoons of organic flax seeds everynight - things are finally getting back to normal

    Gas/bloating/cramps - from the beginning to about a week ago.  I am SO happy this is over for now.  I think it has to do with regulating my BM

    Nausea - Began about a week ago.  I am ok when I wake up but by 10am I feel like crap.  It gets worse and peaks around 2pm and lasts (strong) until dinner.  I haven't puked yet (thank goodness) but I am constantly nauseous.  It helps to eat or drink juice frequently.  It seems to be getting worse.  I hope not!  I can't think of a single thing I want to eat, but I have to keep eating.. It is getting to to point where things are beginning to not only sound bad, but taste bad.  I worry about my diet in the coming weeks.  I couldn't eat dinner last night, I had plain bread (not even toasted!), oranges and popcorn.

  • I didn't want to take a test until I was late this time. I couldn't stand seeing the BFN every month anymore. And I also didn't want to read into the symptoms I was feeling. I finally tested when I was 4 days late (cause it was my DH's birthday) and BFP!! First symptoms: nausea, boob pain, frequent urination, hungry all the time, slight back pain

  • MAJOR fatigue began the weekend before BFP, which came on Thursday so I guess that would have been 3 weeks. I literally slept pretty much the entire weekend! I would sleep for a few hours, wake up, look around, then fall back asleep within minutes! Regardless, I attirbuted this to AF coming

    Sore nipples a couple of days before BFP and now, sore and swollen boobs! I have to hold them when I walk downstairs because the bouncing KILLS!

    Extreme Thirst 5d before BFP...this was my first clue as I usually don't drink much (bad, I know)

    mild to moderate cramping the whole time

    and just within the past few days...Sciatica and ligament pain! I feel like an old lady walking around all hunched forward b/c the top of my butt hurts!
