How far along...

pattye14 · February 2011

This may be a dumb question so I apologize in advance but we are not telling anyone that we are TTC and I just need to ask someone.

How far along were you when you got BFP?

How long before you got BFP were you feeling symptoms?

I found out the first day of my missed period. I tried to take tests before then but they all came back negative even though they were supposed to be for testing before the first missed period. Good luck!

I was not even 4 weeks along. I was home from work to deal with some personal stuff and my computer froze. While it was slowly coming back to life, I went upstairs to (sorry, TMI) pee and decided to take the test just for the hell of it. And, well. I wasn't feeling any obvious symptoms except for the worst case of blues the previous weekend. I am usually a pretty easy-going person, but I was just miserable for four days straight. I came home every night and cried, and cried, and cried. I was convinced that my PMS had returned as I had stopped birth control. :-) I had no inkling whatsoever I might be pregnant.

Good luck with your TTC!

I was 10dpo when I got my BFP. I had sore boobs the day I tested, but that was it.

Just remember, having "symptoms" doesn't mean much. The first month we tried I had every "symptom" in the book and was not pregnant. HTH!

I was charting, so I knew when to test. I took a test at about 4 1/2 weeks and it was positive. I never really had any symptoms at all other than the day I tested, I remember feeling a kind of light flutter feeling down there. Not sure how else to describe it, but it was different. I had a lot of cramping for the first few weeks and I thought for sure I was going to get my period at any moment. Now I know that is completely normal.

GL!

I think i was like 4.5 weeks pregnant when I got my BFP. Like Amy, I was totally crampy and was convinced my period was coming at any second. I even told DH two days before I tested that I was sorry we didn't conceive that month again because I was cramping exactly like I would if I were to get my period.

With my first pregnancy, I got a BFP at 9dpo. I'm not really sure why I tested other then we were planning on going out drinking that night. I had zero symptoms.

With my second pregnancy, I tested the day AF was due, but got a negative. A couple days later when AF still hadn't come, I tested again and got a positive. I was a little more crampy, but nothing more/less than I normally get right before AF arrives.

I tested the day after AF should have come and got the BFP. I had also tested a few days prior to that and had gotten a negative.

Symptoms: cramping and I was really tired the week before.

I was charting and had a good hunch that I might see that second line - I test 13DPO I believe and saw the second line. We had lost our first pregnancy two months prior so I tested a few times after that as well.

I was really REALLY tired about four days before I tested, I fell asleep on my in laws couch. I was more hungry than usual and the idea of chocolate made my stomach turn over. All the same symptoms I had with the first pregnancy. The day before I broke down and tested my b00bs were really tender.

Only a handful of people knew right away, we slowly filled everyone else in as we got further into the pregnancy.

BC&MM · February 2011

I tested at 10DPO. I tried on a pair of pants that I had wore 4 days before and it didn't fit. I thought it I am pregnant or need a crash diet.

I was 4 weeks when I got my BFP. I had a few brief waves of nausea the weekend before I tested, but thought it was from my pre-natals. It may have been, because I didn't have any symptoms until 5.5-6 weeks.
