1st Trimester

What were your very 1st signs you were pg?

I am bloated and have gained 3 lbs in the past week. I'm having cramps but no period. I'm still BFing and have not had a period yet so I can't say I'm late. I'm also really tired but I'm always tired. So I'm really not sure but it feels like I'm either trying to have a period or I'm pg.

  • As a general rule, if you have symptoms you are far enough along to get a positive HPT. 

    My first symptom was AF like cramps 2 days before I expected AF to arrive, which for me is 9ish DPO.

  • My first signs were sore breasts both times.  I am also still nursing my son and did not have a period before we intentionally got pregnant with number two.  I knew we were trying and modifying nursing (we dropped to once per day while trying to get pregnant), using opks, and BD'ing every few days.  I tested 1-2 times per week with cheap wondfos, just because I never knew.  I charted my temps and got a spike, and got a positive pregnancy test at 9 dpo.  Good luck, and keep testing until either you get a period, you get a positive test, or you feel better!

  • I had symptoms soooo early,, nausea, dizzy, fatigue, that was all way before I found out I was pregnant, but with all 3 of my pregnancies I knew pretty much around the time I conceived, I guess I was just sensitive to my body..... you know you should journal all your symptoms, even if you end up with a period cause in the future you'll be able to go back to the notes you took and compare it to future pregnancies.....

    Starting from 6 DPO (which I realize is REALLY early for most women to have symptoms) I was so tired I could barely drive home from work. My breasts were also incredibly sore. I tested at 9 DPO and it was positive.

  • Sore breast and period like cramps for like 2 weeks with no period. Decided to look up what could be wrong with me and the first thing that popped up was PREGNANCY. Take a test. I took a dollar store test and got a positive!

    this was my first sign 

    Mine too. 

  • I got sick to my stomach out of the blue for about 1-2 mins and quickly went away.. (I guess I ignored the bloat to too much ice cream at night!).  Iwent home and took  test.. and it was positive. Take a test. The day after I found out, I ended up with a tension headache for 2 days (thankfully I knew, because otherwise I would have been popping strong headache meds!).   Everyone is different.  Good luck.
  • first sign i had was cramping when i was nowhere near my time for my period. about 2 weeks early. i even called my doctors office and they told me it could be a couple different things...and then when i asked about pregnancy they shrugged it off! ha!! fatigue was the next symptom then a missed period practically confirmed it all until the test.

    Not all the time though, I had sore boobs and I never had sore boobs during my period or any other time I peed on a stick and it was neg waited 5 days peed again and got a positive. I would just wait till you pee on a stick and find out though because not every woman has the exact same symptoms and if most of yours are the same as what you get before AF you'll just need to be patient.

  • I missed my period. Then, I took a few pregnancy tests b/c they were negative. My period was still late, so I took another test and it was positive. I would definitely get a HPT. You don't have to buy the expensive ones. You can get them at Dollar Tree, Big Lots, or Dollar General. They work pretty well!

  • I had a nasty taste in my mouth for 6 days, my boobs hurt constantly, and I'm exhausted. I was also charting my temps and they just kept going higher. I POAS at 10dpo and it was clearly positive Smile
  • Sore boobs with both a week or so before my BFP.

    With this past one I also had a really bad stomach ache / problem. Everything went right through me.... I felt horrible.

  • I had extreme fatigue, followed by a very small appetite.  Then my period was late! :-)

    Sore boobs, missed period and then + hpt.

  • Sore boobs (but that wasn't too abnormal), cream cheese, shrimp, and peanut butter cravings...lol, not together, but those items were red flags for me.  I even ate shrimp for lunch and dinner one day, DH joked about me being pregnant, but I blew him off.  Two days later BFP.

  • A BFP.

    I didn't have any symptoms. We were going on vacation so I knew I was either going to be pregnant or on AF while we were out of town & tested. I didn't have any symptoms for a couple weeks. 

  • I had symptoms immediately, and when I peed on a stick I got a negative because I tested too early. I waited until I was 4 days before my missed period, peed on a stick, and got a positive result.

    My first (and totally give-away) symptom was sore boobs. 

  • Fatigue.  Then BFP!  Thats about it for me...so far.

  • no AF for a week... sore boobs and then BFP..!
  • I woke up and felt like crap. I couldnt hold any food in so I went to my doctor. They did a urine test that came back negative so they diagnosed me with a 48 hour virus. This was a Thursday and I was still feeling crappy on Monday and my boobs got sore. I decided to take a hpt and go my positive.

  • lower back pain.  It was like a band of pain across my back(imagine a huge bandage).  I had never experienced anything like it before.

  • a positive test

    I had no idea I was pregnant until I went to give blood and had to POAS before I could give. Surprise!

    Extremely sore breasts.  They were hurting so bad, I couldnt sleep.  that's how I ended up testing at 8dpo which I normally would never do.
