1st Trimester

weird signs that gave you an indication you were pregnant

dh and i have been ttc since january-so not a whole lot of months to understand what does/doesn't feel like pregnancy. jan and feb i got normal pms symptoms before af (sore boobs, sore back, slightly cranky). just before my bfp last week i had the same pms symptoms as above--but the difference was that i had a lot of saliva built up in my mouth-like really noticiable to the point where i kept having to go to the bathroom to spit in the sink. i didn't think anything of it other than perhaps i had some weird dental thing going on. the past few days it has gone away. maybe this wasn't a symptom-maybe it was. who knows. anyone else have weird indications that they were pregnant?

Re: weird signs that gave you an indication you were pregnant

  • a lot of saliva is a huge pregnancy symptoms.  note that symptoms come and go so dont freak out if you're symptom free -that's a good thing!

    congrats!

  • the stick had two lines. That was my first clue anyway.

  • I had cramps at an odd time in my cycle and was emotional, but didn't think anything of it until after I got my BFP.
  • a couple of days before my BFP we were at the mountains with friends and I got really sunburned, no one else did, but it was really weird.  Other than that everything was normal.

    this - Yes 

  • this was the first cycle that I didn't spot the week before AF.  that was my first clue.  and i don't know how to describe this but I just felt different.
  • My first sign was I was still having creamy CM after I ovulated and usually I'm dry after Ovulation.
  • My gums started bleeding when I brushed my teeth. The only time that had ever happened before was when I was pregnant with DD.  I work two floors up from my OB and actually had an appointment scheduled for the following week because we were having trouble TTC. The nurse laughed when I called 4 days before my mp and said "can you do a blood test this afternoon for me?  My gums are bleeding when I brush my teeth and I think I might be pregnant."  But she called the next morning with exciting news...I was right! 
  • I had heartburn which I have never had before and I am normally lactose intolerate but drink a glass of milk with consequences once in a while anyway-the consequences went away when I got pregnant-I drink at least two glasses of milk a day and I am just fine :)

      oh yeah, I had this two, it was very odd
  • About 5-6 days after we concieved, I immediately had an allergic reaction to alcohol.  I've never gotton blotchy or red, but my whole body was this day after two sips of wine.  It felt like my stomach was convulsing.  Very strange.  Then 5 days after that I had a weird reaction to diet Mt. Dew, I got all jittery and shaking, which NEVER happens with me and caffeine.  I knew then something was up.

  • I just had my exact same symptoms as my period. The day I would have gotten it I was cramping so bad that I assumed it was coming so I ordered a beer. Something I regret but am not so upset over because it was only one and how was I to know...we'd only had sex one time! Picked the right day I guess!
  • Hi All - I'm new to the site!  My weird signs were: my boobs starting hurting - which never happens when AF comes,  I coudn't get enough Chex Mix & I started getting gas pains more then I've ever had....I knew something was up!
  • the heartburn and the additional saliva tipped me off, not to mention I was a week late... everything else was pms like and these symptoms were different than that of which I had with me daughter
