New here - TTC - to early to tell?
Good morning ladies!
This is my first time on here (i think), so bare with me!
This would be my 3rd baby (my son turns 4 feb 15, daughter turns 2 feb 26)... so I have been pregnant before
I dont remember conceiving or anything and I wasnt trying the past 2 times, so maybe it is that I am more tuned into my body this time?
My lmp was dec 14, so I should have ovulated sometime last week near the beginning (26th i think). 3 dpo I started getting a slight cramping in my lower abdomen... nothing severe like pms cramps, but a twinge and cramping feeling that lasted a few days. Ive read on other forums about discharge... did anyone have that when they conceived? Ive felt... off... not sick. But more blah lately.... I could sleep. Usually hungry every few hours (which is weird for me) but mainly the light cramping and the Off feeling. I couldnt place it... I still feel it today. lack of energy almost.... and my attitudes have been wavering... sad/angry/happy/excited all in a while....
I am impatiently waiting to take a test..... I am guessing at least another week until I can, so I thought I would check on the symtoms and other things I have experienced so far.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
Thank you!

I felt a little crampy before and shortly after I found out I was pregnant. My boobs also hurt a lot and I felt a different kind of hunger--like when I first felt hungry I needed to eat RIGHT THEN.
In a few days try taking an Early Response pregnancy test. Find the one that can detect pregnancy 6 days before your missed period. I took my first test 4 days before my missed period. Any second line, no matter how faint, means you're pregnant (I didn't know that and wasn't sure if I was pregnant and ended up calling the Early Response hotline!) Good luck!!!
I'm in the same boat. I was expecting to start on Saturday 1/2/11, but didn't. I haven't been actually feeling sick, but just "off". I've been waking up sweating the past week... which is not even close to me and have been starving lately. I took a test New Years Eve, just hoping to have a reason to not party, but no such luck. I told my husband I'd test on Wednesday because that would put my period at 5 wks which is longer than I ever go. Crossing my fingers and toes until then.
Good luck!!
