How soon were your symptoms?

4dpo today....

In case you have nothing better to do, I have a couple Qs. For those who felt early symptoms indicating your current pregnancy, did you feel anything as early as 4dpo? All day I've had these super dull, crampy, day before AF types of pains. Yesterday and today I've felt very tired and hungry and today a little sick to my stomach. Maybe thats because i just ate 6 freezepops, dont judge. I can't even imagine that I would feel ANYthing pg hormonal related at 3 dpo though. At least at 4 it could be implantation. I'm also kinda crabby today but it's mostly because I'm sick of myself for not being able to wait and just let my body do what it needs to do! I can't stop looking into everything. Has anyone else felt these things?

They say if you are far enough for symptoms you are far enough to test. I took a test seven days before my missed period because that day and the day before I was super tired and I just felt "off". So I tested...and I got a faint line, but a line is a line. So GL to you!

I didn't have symptoms until a week or more after my BFP (which was at 9 dpo)

After TTC for over a year, I tried not to read into any "symptoms" too much. It was just to heartbreaking to be disappointed again and again. I will say I was charting and one of my first indications that I had FINALLY conceived was a dip at 6 dpo and then my BBTs stayed higher for longer than usual. I ended up testing 2 days before my missed period and got my first BFP!

I know the 2WW is tough, but try to distract yourself with other things as much as possible. Unfortunately, early pregnancy signs are indistinguishable from PMS. Best of luck to you!!

I swear by this -- The day after I conceived I knew I was pregnant. Since 1dpo I was crampy, and SUPER moody. I told my husband -- OK this is either PMS or I'm pregnant. Sure enough 10dpo I got my BFP! Right after that I noticed some SERIOUS fatigue and sore breasts.

It can take up to 5 days for the embryo to reach the uterus and another day or two for the embryo to hatch and start to implant. HCG doesn't "usually" start getting in your system until the embryo has fully implanted. Everyone is different though.

I had nausea and tender breasts before my BFP, but not after. I've had no symptoms but light cramping since.

my breasts hurt more before BFP than they do now.

Pregnancy symptoms feel different from PMS. They did for me.

Intuition in one thing but there is no way you had true symptoms 1DPO. Sorry.

OP - 4 DPO is a bit early. Implantation hasn't even occurred.

Agree.I always get sore boobs with AF but what made me test was my lack of period and nausea after eating. Before that I felt no different and you aren't even truly pregnant until week 3 or something like that.

Sore boobs, extremely tired and thirsty after BFP. Also starting to get a little extra emotional. I highly doubt you could have symptoms at 4 dpo.

I hope you get your answer in a few days when you test.

I'm kinda in the middle of my 2WW as well. I swear I'm feeling the cramps and it's a new feeling, not like PMS cramps. I also cried at the drop of a hat yesterday. I'm already an emotional person during AF, so it was odd to me to be this way a week before. If i'm not pregnant, someone needs to pry the donuts out of my hand and tell me to stop being so emotional Stick out tongue
