(173 Posts)Helloooo!!
Just wanting to see what sort of things people experienced, I know everyone is different!
What were the first symptoms of pregnancy that you experienced?
xo
I never had symptoms both times until I took a test then BAM I😂
First was a very unexpected pregnancy and I didn't have a period for 2 months but that wasn't unusual for me and when I tested suddenly nothing fit and my boobs were agony
Second time I just started feeling green a couple of days after the test but not much else.
At the time I felt I had every symptom but looking back, it was easy to talk myself into it
My wee smelt different. I got very hot flushes. Tingly boobs. Tired. So very, very tired.
But the wee thing was the first, I knew I was pregnant then!
Period cramps but no period. Boobs looked odd/different. Metallic taste. Nose bleeds. I was already 6/7 weeks pregnant before I cottoned on.
Heartburn and metal taste then within a few days my boobs went sore.
Both times a really really bunged up nose - like hay fever. The snottiness carried on all the way through both pregnancies. I also pooed a lot more at the beginning of both
Another one who had weird excessive salivation. I knew I was pregnant the second time before I missed a period
Heartburn
My boobs were absolute agony. Never experienced anything like it, knew I must be pregnant.
Dizziness and increased sense of smell
Really nothing at all. I'm 13 weeks now and still not much! However, one night I got out of bed at midnight and went to the fridge because I just had to eat some cheese! The next day I did a test and it was positive, as I knew the cheese thing was just not normal for me!
Ravenous hunger and a peculiar aversion to alcohol.
most of mine were similar to AF symptoms (Sore boobs/emotional/skin broke out) The one thing that stood out for me was when i was cooking chicken in a wok. I thought it smelt amazing and i really wanted to eat it- despite it being still somewhat raw.
Oh, and i also joked to my DH how i must be shrinking my clothes in the wash as several items of clothing seemed tighter!
Ridiculously hungry to the extent I demanded a large pizza in Paris and ate it all . Very stroppy over silly things, more tired than usual and spotty skin.
Sore/huge boobs and feeling absolutely exhausted. And incredibly greasy hair!
Mine is always acid in my throat, it gets so bad out of nowhere and I instantly 'know' I'm pregnant and do a test ha it's so weird. I love lighting candles, I light one every day and every time I've been pregnant (before I've confirmed) it has given me acid. Thats my sign then the sickness comes.
Drinking but not getting drunk (I was out for a friend's birthday) and stomach cramps and a bad tummy. And period pains but not period. I put the bad tummy down to period being due, but it obviously wasn't
TMI coming up but I get a big glob of yellow cervical mucus before a positive test. Normally I dry up completely after ovulation.
I thought I had the flu I felt horrible and milk turned my stomach but I thought it to do with the flu
PrimeraVez I also had the weird blob of bright yellow CM in the week or so my period was due.
I suspected I was pregnant due to boobs that were incredibly sore, i.e. making me suck my teeth just going around the supermarket and a triphasic temperature chart.
Interestingly no PMS. It made me realise how badly I normally have it.
Insane sense of smell, had a hot chocolate in a cafe and could smell the lemon cleaner they'd used on the cup, only reason I took a test.
Sore massively bigger boobs, nausea, metallic taste in my mouth.
Boobs. I remember thinking Christ if I don't come on soon, I think my boobs might literally explode. I cried when I took my bra off each night, but I just thought mega period boobs. Also felt like I was coming down with something fluey - so achy and tired
Uncontrollable eating!
Bad dreams!
A coldsore both times!
Also felt the implantation both times so knew I was the second time instantly.
