With my son I had a feeling

. With this lo I was late on my period, and certain foods weren't tasting the same. For example I needed my usual no sugar coffee to have sugar, foods that shouldn't taste sweet did.

I had a feeling. About two weeks before I tested, I told my DH I thought I was pregnant. Then I started feeling super tired (which I had NO idea was a symptom, I just thought it was from working out) and my boobs hurt. So I took a test!

First month trying & I got curious so I tested. Got the BFP only 8dpo & was shocked:)

I just had a feeling too

took a test and came back negative, left it a few days and was possitive, strange how our instincts can just tell isn't it

I felt like I had a hangover a few days in a row. Tired, nauseous, hungry, wanted bad food. So I went and got a box of 3 tests. Took 1 the Monday before af was supposed to arrive, was negative, took one Friday the day before af, still negative, af didn't show up so on Monday I poas again and there was the positive. It's really funny because I'd been tracking my o on an app and that day my dh and I had sex and I know TMI but I had the weirdest orgasm of my life, like tingles head to toe, and I even told my dh watch I bet we just created a baby. I guess I was right.

Bizarre, bizarre nipple business! Constantly hard and tingly, definitely not something I've felt before! I figured it out shortly after that!

I was charting and I just kept watching my temp rise. On day 7 I knew I implanted because my symptoms started. I accepted reality and tested 10 dpo. :P. low and behold.....

I had a feeling but didn't put much stock in it until I took a test.

LindsayB0505 · September 2013

We were trying so I took a bunch of tests

I actually thought I was out because I kept getting negatives and then finally at about 15 dpo I got a positive.

Super sobby, nauseated from a banana, and insane dreams 3 days before I POAS. Used two different sticks on two different days before I got my BFP.

My period has always been 28 days. ALWAYS. 5 days before my period was due, I randomly started bleeding. Not much, but when I noticed it I thought "Aw shit. Leave it to the month we start TTC for my body to go all out of whack". And...we were at a Jets game. I got home and went to the bathroom to assess the situation .... and it had stopped. It was just the one wipe in the stadium. Didn't want to get too hopeful that it was IB, but I tested the next day and I guess it was! I got my BFP

Of course our baby would implant itself at a Jets game. Preparing itself for a life of heartbreak and humiliation just like Daddy and Mommy!

Very unexpected pregnancy. Our daughter is turning eight soon. I was on bc and my period never came. I told my husband and he was instantly your pregnant but I wasn't convinced. Took a pregnancy test and that thing turned positive so fast. I was very surprised but definitely happy

I started walking a few miles a day starting August 1st. I walk the same path and there is some wildlife around. By the middle of August I was walking 15-20 miles a week but I wasn't losing weight or inches or anything. We've been TTC after a loss in May but weren't counting on it. I went for my nightly walk and the butterflies kept stays on my path, they wouldn't leave me alone the whole walk. The symbol for my grandmother is the butterfly so I asked out loud grandma what are you trying to tell me? I stopped and got a test the next day before I'd even missed my period. My son was in the bathtub that night and I thought I just have to take this test right now I felt like I was being pushed, and Lo an behold immediately 2 dark lines! I was SHOCKED!

I began testing early. It was my first cycle (began halfway) with the RE. I only missed one progesterone pill which wasn't bad. I thought for sure we'd be starting Clomid.

Same as last time. A couple of days after we DTD, I could 'feel' my uterus and I know it sounds weird, but my blood felt different. I told DH both times that I was pregnant. The first time I took two early pregnancy tests and they came back negative and I told him that they were wrong (and they were) took another on the first day of my missed period and it was positive. This time I waited until 4 days before my missed period and tested and it was positive then.

I had the same weird things happen as with DD. I noticed an intense poking feeling below my belly button about a week past ovulation, then I was incredibly thirsty and started cramping. I took a test and it was instantly positive.

I swear I feel kicking or something , but I don't think that's possible !

It's not possible

Baby is seriously just a dot. Legs don't even grow until much later. Right now at 7 weeks, my LO is just about the size of a blueberry.

BUT...I do know the feeling you are describing. It is similar to what I felt like. It's just your uterus getting ready for the next 9 months.

I was slightly nauseous and fatigued and deep down just knew that I was.

3Acuff2011 · September 2013

Same thing with my first, I just had a creeping urge to POAS. The day before I had noticed I was unusually exhausted. The week before H commented on my boobs and how it was weird that I thought I smelled him baking macaroni when it was really apple pie. I also was car sick every time I rode with him...he said 'That happened last time you were pregnant.' It didn't register in my head. So I POAS on what I thought was the first day of my expected period and BFP right away! Turns out I had miscalculated my LMP and I'm about 9 weeks along.

I knew it when my breasts felt heavier than usual, i felt dizzy a lot, sick more and heartburn especially the first couple of weeks which i just figured well maybe im getting my aunt flow this month because I have always had pregnancy like symptoms ever since I had my son when i had regulated again after he was born in 08/12 around the time of the month, .lol && maybe a bit TMI but husband knew it because before we even thought about me taking a hpt sex was VERY uncomfortable! He started joking with me Saying you are pregnant! We just found out last Sunday! (: I'm 8w 4 days as of today! (:

artroyer · September 2013

No one else has said this yet... I had a yeast infection the week before I tested. I immediately got suspicious because they only time in my life that I've ever had a yeast infection was when I was pregnant, and I got a bunch of them. Then I started crying over dumb things. So excited for my bfp

no other real symptoms except being super tired! That's how it was for me last time though too
