What were your 1st symptoms of being pregnant?

[stalkybean]

I had very sore boobs but i thought i was due on. I started to think i was baking a bun when i had a 'feeling'. And i felt right!

 

[Beaney192]

I was really over sensitive and this was a week before i got my BFP other then that not symptoms at all

 

[LadyHutch]

Inability to sleep for about 3 weeks, leg cramps/sore legs, and extreme...i mean seriously extreme irritability.

 

[Feathers]

Really sore boobs from around the week after conception (roughly) and then sickness hit a few weeks after. I just thought I had a sickness bug that was going around. It was only after a few days it dawned I might be preggo I don't tend to stress over my monthly cycle much so being a couple of weeks late didn't worry me lol.

 

[tali]

Twinges,crampy and slight nausea roughly about 7-10 days after ovulating - otherwise I just had a feeling I was.

 

[WinterSnow]

I was having hot flashes and was getting more tired. But what made me very suspicious was that every day around 4:00 pm I would get this tired/foggy, nauseaus/acid reflux thing going on. It would last until almost 9:00 pm and normally I never get acid reflux.

Another funny thing? I have tender joints and ligaments anyway, but my feet were KILLING me! I had bunions on my big toe and pinky toes that were so painful. I read that it's due to your body sending out relaxin which helps your joints become loose in preperation. They still hurt! I noticed my knees and hips felt "loose", ha ha!

 

[pillarbox_red]

Big massive boobs that got more sore by the day

Few days later waves of nausea and a spaced out feeling, and really tired

I was getting weird sort of electric shock feelings that would last a couple of seconds in my pelvic area and these turned into more constant cramping about 3 days before i got my positive around 12dpo

So hungry i could eat 24/7 and still not get full!

really tired and really thirtsy/ dry mouth....i also had a tooooon of CM but i never thought anything of it. sore boobs didnt start untill about 5 weeks

 

[KatieMRi]

I had all normal AF symptoms, sore boobs etc... The only difference is I could sleep more (I usually get up early)

 

[babydust1]

i couldnt sleep i'd go to sleep for like 2 hours at night then be awake, i had really bad cramping for about 4 days before af was due & a week after i got bfp, & i burped alot which i dont do ( that was my biggest sign ) as i have acid reflux and have never ever been able to burp so when i started i knew something was up

Love this thread.Huge thanks to all contributors!Wish u all H n H 9 months!!

[Heather212]

nothing. i had sore boobs which had only just started as part of the monthly routine lol. had heartburn. this was the month that i was so sure af would come. sorry i'm proberbly not much help with my lack of syptoms and all

Same for me

I usually get sore boobs before AF, as well as cramping so I noticed no difference at all ... except maybe for the fact that I usually spot for a couple of days before and it didn't happen. Also the cramps were more short-lived than I remember with PMS, like I'd get a minute or two of cramps, then nothing for a really long time.

I also had some weakness in my knees, and some breathlessness while working out, but that could have well been stress/nervousness.

 

[we can't wait]

Hey My OH and I were TTC for 2 years before we got our BFP... By the time it finally arrived, I was *convinced* that it was just never going to happen for us. So for all the TTC ladies who are peeking on the 1st tri forum- never give up hope! You're going to get there!!

10-12dpo I really started to notice I had tons of creamy/lotiony CM. It actually reminded me of the sticky EWCM I would get around OV.
At 14dpo I was having really bad stomach cramps (similar to what I would get before my period.) I started getting really bad diarhhea. It (TMI) was the absolute worst I have ever experienced! Thank goodness it went away after about a week!
My most severe symptom probably started at 12dpo-- I was SO tired. I just laid in bed and demanded my OH bring me macaroni and cheese... and bless him, he did.
The weirdest symptom I had (I hadn't heard of this one...) I started sneezing ALL the time!! I still do... even at 20 weeks. I'm not sure when this one specifically started... I would guess around 13dpo.
Because I was in such denial that I could ever get pregnant... I waited until my af was FIVE days late before I allowed myself to test! So at like 18dpo I took 2 FRER's and got really dark lines
Good luck & baby dust to all you ladies TTC!

My mood, I found out I was pregnant at 3+2, I'd been a bitch a week before finding out! Also my boobs hurt from ovulation onwards... and still do!

 

[LittleBoo]

My cat! She started stalking me and laying next to me constantly, putting her front paws across my tummy. Oh and I cried 50 times during one movie

 

[sequeena]

- sneezing almost constantly

That's it I think. The rest were pre af symptoms.

 

[Melody2011]

Implantation spotting for 6 days
6dpo-11dpo (faint BFP)
also dull mild pain in right side (like Ovulation pain) and a cold (sore throat and cough)
mild shooting pains in boobs occasionally

 

[ProudMommy26]

My first signs were feeling sick, sensitive to smells, sore breasts and tired all the time. Although in all of my pregnancies, not one has been the same. First I was sick in the mornings, but felt ok in myself. (girl) Second, no sickness but terrible back pain. (girl) This pregnancy- feel sick all day, tired, can't stop eating... Very different.

 

[babyone]

I had stomach cramps and wind, still have it now.
