Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Very first sign you knew you knew you were pg?

ANd was it before you got a BFP?

 With my DS it was the fact that I couldnt make it through the day without a nap.,,this was about a week before getting BFP!

Re: Very first sign you knew you knew you were pg?

  • I thought that I had the stomach flu! It was December and I couldn't hold anything down. I went to the doctor and got a BFP. Turns out it was m/s!
  • I went two months without AF, was really sick (ended up have HG) and slept all the time. I was just a little slow on the uptake I guess.

  • Our dog would not stop sniffing me all night so I googled it and found out that they can smell the hormones. When I woke up the next morning my boobs felt really heavy so I tested and BFP!!!

  • #1 Heartburn.

    #2 Couldn't tell until I POAS.

  • I scarfed down a bowl of etouffee, couldn't finish a glass of bourbon, and felt really nauseous for about 24 hours.

  • This is kind of gross and weird, but with the first pregnancy, the one I m/c, I woke up and took a pregnancy test and it was negative. I was really depressed, especially since I also had two awful cold sores when I woke up, so I went back to bed (it was a Saturday). My husband went out and got me a better test, and when I woke up I tested again and it was positive. I later read that some women tend to get a lot more cold sores when pregnant. Random and unpleasant.

    With my daughter, I was dead tired and had implantation spotting. I came home and took a nap, and could only wake up enough to move from the couch to the bed. Normally I'm totally wired if I fall asleep after work so I knew something was up. I tested the next day and got a bfp.

  • The day I was expecting my period it didn't come.  Took a pg test and was postive.  Yawn.  The spin is that the day I took the test was the day DH and I took off for three weeks in Europe.  Happy, but three days into it was hit with the ms.  The cities I enjoyed the most directly correlate to my "good days". :)

    Btw, this time not so lucky (as far as knowing): Aunt Flow comes whenever she feels like it these days and I've thought I was pg like three times. Seven tests later, not so much.  Sigh.  Still trying :)

  • I started getting heartburn over a week before my bfp - never had it in my life.

  • I have very small boobs.  One night, I woke up after sleeping on my stomach & my boobs felt like there were rocks in them.  They were heavier to me.

  • Nausea.   I hadn't even gotten a bfp yet.  I probably wasn't more than 9 days DPO.

    I took a bite of an apple and felt like I was going to puke everywhere. 

  • Horrible heartburn. It started around 7-8 DPO.

  • First, my dog was on my ass all. Day. Long. For about a week before I told DH I was worried we had a cancer-sniffing dog. Then, I started gagging every morning on my toothbrush. Then the unbelievable exhaustion set in. We're trying again, and I keep reminding myself that every pregnancy is different so I shouldn't look for the same signs, you know? But I still side-eye a little bit when I harf brushing my teeth or the pup decides to spend a day or two sewn to my leg.
  • It sounds cheesy, but I just **knew** deep down I knew I was pregnant, but kept pushing it out of my brain after trying for years.
  • Both times, my dog got really clingy and slept with his head on or against my belly. (He normally sleeps on the couch or at the foot of the bed.)

  • I was really tired that week, but it was finals week and I had a bad cold, so that didn't jump out at me. At 13dpo I lost my appetite halfway through lunch and just threw the rest away. That was unusual. I really didn't think I was pregnant though; I tested at 14dpo just so I would know what cold meds I could take and whaddyaknow, that second pink line popped up immediately!

  • The small of my back was killing me.  I thought I was coming on my cycle.  I told my friend my cycle was like a week or 2 late and she told me to take a test.  I didn't react to the late cycle because I'd been on the pill/patch for 10 years and had just stopped.  I knew my baby would have to adjust.  Took the test next morning and almost choked on my toothbrush to see {pregnant} in the little window.

  • I get a weird sensation in my lower abdomen.  It really sounds insane but... it's true.  It's like a weird pulling sensation or something.

    ETA:  That was for this time around since I was familiar with that feeling.  The first time, it was EXTREME bitchiness.

    Day Three
  • with both pregnancies, I started throwing up at 8dpo.
  • I was VERY irritable, a total monster towards my husband.

    My appetite spiked, I would go from feeling fine to completely starving within a matter of minutes it seemed. 

    I was thirstier than normal, which = more peeing.

     

    All of this happened before my BFP

  • with DD- no symptoms just missed period

    this pg- my supply dropped  (still no AF) and I ate cereal with a pickle at 6:30 AM.

    Really?  Hmmm...b/c I felt that same sensation yesterday.  We're currently TTC and I think I *O* last Friday.  Do you remember how many DPO you felt that????

  • I didn't know I was pg until I POAS, but looking back some signs were: I was drunk off of 1 glass of wine, I was thristy all.of.the.time and I was overly emotional and bloated - which I attributed to pms.

  • I just had typical AF symptoms. Cramps and achy boobs. I tested after being 2 days late and got my BFP. The following week was when the rest of my symptoms showed up.
  • Everything stunk! My wonder nose was working in full force. I tested a couple of days later because I was waiting for my period to start my clomid and then found out I was pregnant.
  • I was two days late and while I was sitting at my desk at work I got this huge wave of dizziness/nausea. I went immediately after work to buy a HPT and there it was!

  • My mouth kept watering, kind of like when you are sick and about to throw up. This probably started about a week before my BFP.

  • I had extremely erect nipples constantly.  I was in Mexico and wearing teeny tiny bikinis (I was super skinny then).  I felt a little porn starrish but DH loved it.  Sorry if that was TMI for some of you ; )  The morning after we got home I poas and BFP!!  It was so awesome because we had been trying for 2 years!
