The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

[Wewantourmush]

Hi GalsAm currently 7dpo and have been feeling very different to what i would usually feel at this time of the month.
Normally i would be getting cramps a few days before my AF but i have had these cramps in my lower abdom for about a week and i have another week before i'm due on.
I am getting twinges in my boobs but nothing more, bloating feeling comes and goes, heartburn, tiredness more than usual.
I hope this is not all in my head. Have taken a few tests (i know i shouldnt do and its well too early) but they all came back negative apart from one which was a pink line but ticks over in my head it might be an evaporation line as the one following that 2 days later was negative.

Is this normal?
I have a week to wait till my period is due... nightmare!

Yes i am the same! Whens your af due? im testing friday/saturday! good luck xx

My AF is due on sunday/Monday.
might just wait and see if it arrives before i test or not.
When is yours due? I'll keep fingers and toes crossed for you.

Mines due on friday! Yeah same for you hun. I hope and pray we get our nicely in time for christmas! xxxx

Hey all,

I'm new on here, but I've read the entire thread this past week.
I wasn't charting OV, so this might not be entirely accurate:

DPO 0-6: Sore BBs! Tired...
7DPO: BBs even more sore, eating like crazy! Exhausted!
8DPO: BBs still incredibly sore, starting to get sensitive to smells, exhausted!
9DPO: BBs sore obviously , sensitive to smells, not feeling like eating much, having cravings for steak when I hardly ever eat it, a little nauseous throughout the day, so exhausted I feel like putting my head down at work!

No metallic taste, not really any cramping (small pains and twinges here and there)... but my BBs are never ever sore, not during AF or before or after... never! So that, to me, seems to be notable. I'm testing tomorrow even though it's probably too early... I can't help it!

My symptoms at about 10dpo are sore boobs, and exhaustion! I really hope this is it this month! Im so tired of waiting and symptom spotting! Sometimes I think will it ever be my turn????????

 

[mumanddad]

well this month i dont i dont know what to think ill list my syptoms and see what you think

tiredness
bloated
really thursty
everything smells off to me
sorry in advance but my bowel movements are more which is major change( sorry)
really fidgity/ and uncomfy


so what do you think?

well i have got achy bbs but only slightly could this be it for me?

probably not because i am sympton spotting lol

 

[LittleRhody]

Unfortunately, no But since I wasn't tracking my OV, for all I know I'm only 8dpo, not 10. And anyway, the witch doesn't come until next week, so I'll test again then. Good luck to the rest of you gals!

 

[mrskcbrown]

Hey all! I hate reading into my symptoms, just to be disappointed once again. So I am NOT getting my hopes up. I feel lower back ache, abdominal AF like cramps, and fatigue. I am about 8 dpo, and cannot test until Dec. 14 because I have a 34 day cycle, so I have to wait a bit longer than others. Here's to getting OUR BFP's for Christmas!!!

Are you sure you can't test before that? I would think, even with a luteal phase longer than 14 days, that you could still test by 12 dpo...?

Hmm tomorrow is my 14 luteal phase day, you may be right. I think I am going to wait until sunday, just in case. I dont want to see any BFNs! Im nervous. My symptoms are worsening, now nausea, heartburn and sore boobs! Please no AF!

Ooh those sound like good symptoms!! I woke up today with sore boobs, too! That was my biggest symptom with my previous BFPs.

Fingers crossed for both of us

Hi girls, how are we all i haven;t posted in here for a while as all my symptoms disappeared, but now i am 17DPO and 5 days late for af!!

How are everyones symptims worse? better? All i have is tender nipples, and quite windy, oh and lack of af!! Lol.

 

[manchester1]

im 20dpo.....have been having period pain for like nearly a week now, and got quite alot of CM!

Still BFN on FRER

 

[LittleRhody]

I took my test yesterday and, as I said, it was negative but I might've been only 7 or 8 DPO. The witch is due this Sunday, but I'm scared to test again! I feel so different this month though, so fingers crossed!

Symptoms right now as of 8 or 9 DPO (haven't been tracking OV):
*Very sore BBs, they feel very thick, and they're sprouting blue veins on breast and areola.
*Absolutely exhausted!
*Very sensitive to smells, feeling a little nauseous here and there, food aversions.
*Occasional short-lived headaches
*Dizziness/lightheaded
*Not hungry at all, then ravenously hungry, and back again
*Getting irritated/angry very easily, my poor fiance!
*Very gassy!
*Twinges and little pains in uterus-area here and there

I hope I'm not just setting myself up! Hoping for that !!!

 

[mrskcbrown]

I still got my sore bb's, exhaustion and nausea, especially late at night. I hope this is it. I will test tomorrow or friday. Nervous but cant wait to see my BFP!

LittleRhody>>> your symptoms sound so promising and yes you probably tested to early. I am about 13 dpo or so and still havent tested. Im trying to wait it out!

 

[manchester1]

good luck!!!!

 

[LittleRhody]

When I brushed my teeth today, my gums were bleeding, normally I wouldn't be excited about this, but I hear it's a good sign.

Mrskcbrown- Thanks for the positive words, your symptoms sound promising as well! I also have PCOS so I was wary at first, but this feels like it's gonna be it! Fingers crossed for both of us!

 

[mrskcbrown]

LittleRhody-
Thanks! In my mind from my symptoms, I really want to just say yes! Im pregnant but the other little voice says maybe you arent. I guess because it hasnt happened in 8 months what makes me think it will happen now???? I never have had these symptoms before. My breasts are untouchable! I mean I need a caution sign thats just how bad it is.

I too had my gums bleed like one day last week and I was trying to make sure I didnt drink anything red LOL!

When will you test? Im going to wait until sunday, i hope! That is the last day of this cycle for me.

Manchester- Thanks! I know your struggle and I am praying so hard for you right now that you receive the answer that you need! ((((hugz))))
Babydust!

 

[LittleRhody]

Mrskcbrown:

Because I can't possibly wait anymore, I'm testing tomorrow even though my AF is due Sunday haha. It's very possible that it'll turn up negative, but then I'll just test again anyway. My breasts are untouchable as well, they hurt like crazy! You have more will and strength than I do, waiting until Sunday haha.

Hun, please dont give up hope, although I know where you are coming from. We had been trying since April, so 8 too and I had just got my bfp. It can happen xxxx

Hi Girls, I am on currently at 16 dpo, with AF arriving today or tomorrow. FX'd she don't show her face!!! Anyway, I have been having some symptoms, but really hard to determine if they are pregnancy symptoms or just over-exaggerated PMS symptoms...Sometimes I feel hopeful, other times I think I'm just fooling myself into believing I am preggo. I am testing on saturday or sunday, so I really hope I see my BFP!!!

6-7dpo I started having af like cramping which has been coming and going up to about 13 dpo.

9 dpo I had a temp dip, but then I had another temp dip yesterday (97.7). Not sure what that means, but it has gone up again today (98.3). Anyone have any suggestions as to what the temps may mean???

At about 10 dpo I started getting creamy CM and lots of it, it began to lighten up a few dyas ago, but then again at 15 dpo I started having lots of it again, I also noticed a little but of pink in it yesterday too, ?? implantation ?? or AF is on her way.

My breasts have been extremely sore since about 9 dpo and are getting worse everyday. My nipples started out being extremely sensitve at 9-10 dpo, but are no longer like that..they have however, gotten bigger!!!!

I have days of feeling fluish, that comes and goes.

I have been having sensitve teeth and sore gums, but no bleeding.

And I haven't been able to eat as much as I used to, because I have a tendency of getting full much quicker. I haven't had any nausea though.

Anyway, that's a list of what I can remember from my TWW, things have been pretty vague so I haven't paid much attention to them. I will keep you girls posted if I get my BFP.

Best of luck to you all getting your BFP's!!!
Merry Christmas

hi guys

Im on day 14dpo and i had spotting yesterday which i took to be Af coming but its now almost the end of 14DPO and still no AF. Just spotting old blood. I almost always just have AF appear full on, without any warning. I have had sore boobs for nearly two weeks and period pains for a week on and off. totally confused at the moment! its possible that this could be late implantation (as my cycles seem to alternate between 28 and 36 days) or a normal cycle that just wont make up its mind! If its late implantation, how long would i have to wait to test???

If you're 14dpo and AF hasn't appeared yet, why not take one now? Spotting is a good sign! Good luck, whenever you do decide to take it!
