The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

[crackle]

Got my today, 13 dpo, no symptoms at all, was so convinced i wasn't pg this cycle i ordered a cbfm, 40 sticks, 2 hpts and taking charge of your fertility - they all arrived yesterday! The only thing that was strange was that yesterday i went for a no.2 (sorry tmi!) around 9 or 10 times, and it was always normal - ie not diarrhea or constipation - didn't realise i was so full of s**t! Also i was starving when i went to bed last night (made dh gt me a bagel!) and woke at 6:15 this morning starving again! Good luck everyone!

Thanks crackle, also saw you got a bfn at 12dpo and then your bfp at 13dpo, gives us early testers hope!! xx

 

[crackle]

No probs! Was really faint on ic as well, had to do clearblue digi as thought i was imagining the line - was focussing on it so hard i wouldn't have been surprised if i was seeing double! Good luck, will be keeping an eye on yourself and a few others in the coming days!

Do you know something hun i have been the same. Well not 9 or 10 times. More like 3 - 4. Only usually go once a day or once every other day.

Number 2's are definatly weird in the 2ww.

Congrats again crackle. xxx

with my son around the time of conception i went down with flu like symptoms unable to get out of bed, dizzy spells and craving butter. also lots more cm and trips to the loo every 15 mins. i also lost weight in the first few weeks

 

[ramblinhaggis]

I still remember my first symptoms!

1. fleeting stabbing pain in the BB's and i mean fleeting
2. Dog tired at midday and between 4-5pm
3. Constipated almost from the word go
4. Feeling sick, but nothing specific
5. brown spotting only on wipe
6. Emotional, depressed and uptight.

All of that before BFP at 11DPO

 

[hilar]

I had BFP yesterday just a day after bumped into this thread so I want to share my symptoms as a thank-you-very-much.

- Around O: BBS started to enlarge, DH found out this first
- since 2DPO: started to feel tingled in lower abdomen until today - 1st day of due AF
- constant bloating, couldn't zip when seated
- continuous gum bleeding when brushing teeth without any gum disease
- light-headed and sometimes felt like light food poisoning after lunch
- sometimes breathed through ears despite no heavy exercises

 

[orbsone]

I had more symptoms the previous cycle when I got a bfn!!!!!!

This cycle got a bfp and these are my symptoms so far...

Wind lots and lots
Pooing 3-4 a day
Gums bleeding slightly when I brush
Boobs hurt occasionally but have hurt much more in the past before ttc
Seem to be getting light headed especially if I get up suddenly or don't eat for a while.
Brown spotting at 12 and 13 dpo

That's it. Only for I was ttc and paying attention to symptoms, I would never have known.

hi guy, thought i would put up my symptoms. I think I ov between the 14th to 17th.
I tested on saturday the 25th it was BFN
my witch was due on the 28th, but I tested that day and got a faint line, so I left it until the next day and got a faint pink line on the first response but it says it can be dark or light.
Well before I tested i could have sworn my peroid was coming, i had the worst back pain and cramping on one side.
I was very tried the week after ov
I usually eat like loads before my peroid comes, but this time round i felt sick when i ate and after and before (god all the time lol) didn't vomite though.
my bb's only got sore two days go and its been nearly a wk from i got my BFP.
Good luck to u all

Hello ladies

What an amazing thread - we were not planning to actively ttc until later this month as have a holiday next week but have been ntnp since for a while now.

I just have a quick question - I am probably about 7-8DPO and according to this thread I appear to be having a few symptoms/paranoia.

1) have had a couple of very strong but fleeting metallic tastes (enough to check to see if my gums were bleeding but they were not)
2) this morning my gums did bleed after brushing
3) pulling sensation in womb area
4) sore on the sides of my boobs - but wondering if only sore as have been poking them so much in the course of reading this thread
5) was out of breath this morning after walking one flight of stairs and into office
6) weird feeling in left groin/hip area - feels like I have pulled a muscle or something but have done nothing out of the ordinary to cause it. It is actually making me walk with a slight limp. I just thought it was maybe me getting old but it has made me think as there have been a few mentions of this in this mammoth thread.

Has anyone else had the hip thing???

 

[Sparklestar]

When i had my BFP i was really really thirsty, that was all. Good luck ladies!! xxxx

:Here is my BFP STORY :BFP:

ALONG WITH MY SYMPTOMS AND WHAT I DID DIFFERENTLY THIS MONTH

Me and my husband have been trying for 7 months.
This was our 8th cycle.

But, this cycle was the very first that I use ClearBlueEasy OPK.
And tracked my ovulation.
Out of my 5 fertile days:

1. No bd
2. BD (did not get up afterwords.Rolled over and went to sleep) (Missionary)
3. No bd
4. LH SURGE- OPK POS- Bd (elevated for 10 minutes)(Missionary)
5. OVULATION DAY (Elevated for 10 minutes)(Rear-Entry)

1dpo: No Sypmtoms At all Didnt even think of it
2dpo: Cried all day, mad a dh. Resulting in a horrible headache. Thought my breast felt peculiar.. not sore, not swollen, just had a sight faint ache.
3dpo:Same Headache, No other symptoms
4dpo: Very gassy, felt small twinges, soar throat, runny nose, back ached
5dpo: Still Gassy, Very Bloated, bad taste in mouth, back ache
6dpo: No symptoms besides back ache
7dpo: Mild, nasua, Multiple bm's more than the usual(TMI)
8dpo: Faint Faint Ache sides of breast, one nipple slightly itched
9dpo: Woke up cramping for 15 mins (If that)

My CM was very lotiony.
My sense of smell heighten (my sons pee diaper.. smelled really pissy)
Food adversions.. one minute starving.. i'd cook and all of a sudden it just didnt seem appealing

Runny Nose: DEFINETELY MORE RESEARCH NEEDS TO BE DONE because i think this is a sign

No Implantation bleeding.
Boobs didnt swell or get sore.
No major cramping.
No major nasua.
Very mild symptoms.. but enough to raise a few alarms

I took a test at 9dpo, 5 days before af.. a First Response Early Response
And BFP..

Honestly, I thought this cycle was 50/50
Some days I was certain.. other days i was sure it was all in my head.

Hi hun my advice to u would be to not think about it! I no that sounds daft but it drags in if you do. With my first preg I only knew I was pregnant because i missed my AF and i got a big strong positive BFP when i tested. But this time round I tryed three different tests all BFN must have been to early even though the first response is meant to tell you six days before but any way i tested on the day my AF was due and got the faintessed line the next day the first response showed positive but it was'nt strong. You will still remember your early symptoms when u get your BFP. You don't have long to wait so just distract urself as best you can. But I can't help saying some of your symptoms sound positive.

Guess I'll Add Mine...

Ok +opk CD12 Was staying at the OH's Coz It Was His B-day (lucky for me not him lol!!!)

BD CD 11 12 13 14 15 16 (Both Missonary And Rear And BD'd at least twice each night... DON'T ASK HOW I SURVIVED...)

1dpo - 6dpo - ewcm had quite a bit of it
4dpo - Had gush of ecwm don't know what happened there, was moody and tired all day as well...
5dpo - 10dpo no symptoms... actually forgot that i had been BD'ing all wek long lol
11dpo - vomited twice after eating a single pasta and crab meat salad... and i mean literally one of each... more cm than normal... starting to feel wet all the time
tested and got a faint bfp... but ignored it for some reason and went to bed (still don't know why i did that!!!) cm no longer lotion like but turning a bit sticky
12dpo - was testing my stomach and ate some more pasta and crab meat salad and vomited again... thought it was the food (although mum ate some and was fine), more cm, it's sticky, and kind of a yellow colour,
tested using a frer and got the lovely you see in my pic... that was with smu

I'm no longer eating the pasta and crab meat salad think it was the mayo to be honest!!!

No MS but i do have extremly sensitive nipples that appeared today... had to take my bra off at work... my bbs also seem slightly bigger, windypoos on the hour, needing to do a number 2 a hell of a lot more, and i'm constantly starving... right now i'm thinking of all the food i can creep into bed with.... mmmm foood!!!!!

Hope this helps you ladies
