For those who have conceived before...
what was the first 'sign' that you were pregnant? (either before or after your missed af)
i'm just curious if there are things i should be looking out for - feeling or otherwise...
example: my rings don't fit today - they have NEVER not fit before.. this could be bloating - believe me, i know, but it led me to asking this ??

Re: For those who have conceived before...
I'm a bad person to ask, lol, I didn't know I was pregnant with Danika until I was like 10 weeks along.

She's a riot! If you steal her, I'm sure you'll return her when she goes into Wench-Mode!

Re: For those who have conceived before...
With my daughter, I honestly don't remember feeling anything other than a few cramps & some increased CM (I ran to the bathroom more than once thinking AF had just arrived & I was going to stain my pants) before the BFP. We were not trying so I wasn't paying close attention, but I don't remember having sore boobs until 5 so weeks along. The thing that made me finally test (6 days after my period was due) was the lack of AF symptoms.
With my miscarried pregnancy, my nipples got very sore & sensitive around 7DPO & I had some light cramping. Again, not much going on.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
Honestly, its hard for me to say. I got pregnant in Feb and looking back the only thing that was weird was I was very thirsty and was having insomnia. Last cycle though I was very thirsty and BFN. Its so hard to tell. I am reaching the end of the 2ww now and don't know what to think of anything. PMS and AF symptoms are pretty much the same.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
I started to become exhausted very early on. It was to the point that I was passing out on the couch at 7 PM. I went to a Matchbox 20 concert before I knew (I LOVE Rob Thomas) and was falling asleep. My nipples were also extremely sensitive so much so, that even the slightest brush against them hurt. A few days before AF was due, I started to feel crampy and really thought I was getting AF.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
My first sign was a positive pregnancy test. I didn't really have any symptoms before my BFP. I honestly didn't think I was pregnant. I had very bad AF-like cramps a few days before my BFP. I thought AF was coming. Looking back now, I may have been a little more tired and may have had some indigestion right before my BFP, but nothing that seemed like a pregnancy sign at the time. I didn't have sore boobs until I was 5 or 6 weeks.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
I remember waking up one morning and it felt like I had a severe hang over. I was dizzy and had crazy nausea all morning.
But that is all I can remember lol. I guess because I wasn't trying at all I didn't pay much attention to the little signs.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
I had no idea I was pregnant. But, my stomach was a mess and 2 people asked me if I was pregnant and i was like I don't think so....and after months of trying (this was our 1st month of not trying) I got a BFP.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
I got a BFP the day AF was due. I tested because I felt nauseous and lightheaded.

I was exhausted and had horribly sore boobs by 7DPO
Same with me. My boobs hurt so much I thought I would burst into tears. And I kept falling asleep at 8:00 pm every night. OH YEAH AND MY SENSE OF SMELL REALLY KICKED IN!! Stuff I used to like - for example the perfume I was wearing for years - would make me gag... and things I loved eating - LIKE BACON - made me run into the bathroom to throw up. And to think that all these signs didn't gimme a clue I was pregnant - I didn't find out till week 9... who knew? Our was a plesent surprise!

Re: For those who have conceived before...
tired, bloated, and I had a ton of saliva. My boobs hurt (like a stinging pain, not a sore pain) and I had a weird taste in my mouth. I was also ravenously hungry the day of my missed AF. I did not get a BFP until several days later.
Hope this helps.

Re: For those who have conceived before...
my boobs are far from bothering me - but i'm having other symptoms....the biggest red flag for me is that i have IBS-D - which basically means I go to the bathroom every time i eat food...of any type.
lately - it's been more of a struggle to go...which has not happened to me since i was diagnosed... i also feel off'ish and i'm RAVENOUS all the time...but there is NO WAY on earth this is possible (as i'm only 5 days post bd)...
i'm also the most impatient person in the world!
