Excess saliva! Weird and gross, I’d find my mouth filling up with saliva constantly made me gag a bit. Also metallic taste.

These were way before I got a bfp.

Spots in front in my eyes when bending/balancing during my usual exercise classes

Not getting drunk when drinking!

Mrstobe90 · 13/06/2018 00:11

My boobs went HUGE overnight. I went to a fitting for my wedding dress a week before and it was fine.
The next week, they couldn't do it up over my bust and there was a 2/3 inch gap.

Overwhelming tiredness - I'd fall asleep whenever I sat down anywhere.

And sore boobs - that's when I twigged Grin

Heartburn and a metallic taste in my mouth. And little squiggly pains in my lower abdomen.

melodybirds · 13/06/2018 01:01

I had abdominal cramps and pooed everything out. I was amazingly empty at the end of it!

Coffee giving me heartburn, on all 3

FuckMyUterus · 13/06/2018 06:28

Absolutely horrendous lower back ache, to the point that I cried walking home from work. And I couldn't make it through a day without at least 2 naps.

ItsClemFandangoCanYouHearMe · 13/06/2018 06:31

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 Grin
