Question for all of you PG girls...

How long was it before you tested positive that you felt symptoms? My DH and I have been TTC but it is too early for me to test my AF is still a week and a half away...but I am feeling so crampy and my back is a little sore. I also have had a headache since last night and nothing makes it go away. Could I be pregnant and feeling sick already or am I just reading into this???

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

A headache like that is my warning signal. I had them with both my pregnancies...

It cant hurt to test....

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

i had flu like symptoms early on, maybe a week before AF was suppose to show.

Chills and aches..

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

You can definitely feel things very early after conceiving. some ladies say they feel differently just a few days after they know they conceived, before you'd actually think you would get 'symptoms'..

I do think that those things could be a sign, or maybe not. So hard to tell. If AF isn't due for over a week, I would hold off testing for now, I think it's too early. Wait until you are closer to when AF is due and if you are still feeling this way, test away!!

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didnt get symptoms till 6 weeks

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

Do you have a 28 day cycle? If so, it's probably too soon to test.

I tested at 6dpo because I miscalculated my O date. It was negative. I was going to wait until AF was due to test again but DH urged me to test on 8dpo and it was a faint +. That's still pretty early for most but it can happen.

My first symptom was I had some spotting from 5-7dpo. Then, every bone in my body ached on 7dpo. After that, I had no symptoms until I was about 9 weeks along.

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

My symptoms were my usual AF symptoms- I had very light cramping and sore breasts on the day before AF was supposed to show. But since I was taking that month "off" from TTC and was expecting AF, it didn't occur to me to test right away. I was four days late when I got my BFP, and I still don't have any "strong" symptoms at 9 weeks- a little queasy, food aversions, headachy but none of it bad.

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

Thanks Girls! I will keep you all posted...but I think I will wait a little longer before I test--I have a 28 day cycle that is always regular so I will wait a few more days.
Thanks again! Have a good weekend

Re: Question for all of you PG girls...

i knew around the 4th week, even before i got my period that something was up. i had terrible gas pains (worse than ever in my life). that was the first clue. nausea and vomiting started right after i found out i missed my period and tested positive.
