Did anyone just 'Know' they were pregnant?

[memoo]

I have heard people say that they just knew they were pregnant long before the positive pregnancy test.

Has anyone ever felt like this and if so how soon?

[spicemonster]

Yes, every time I've been pregnant. It's nothing to do with norks or any other physical sign. I just knew. I can't explain it.

[morocco]

yeah, i knew early on, even though not planned. not within days but before i was late itswim?

[lulumama]

no, both times i was totally gobsmacked and we were actively trying for a baby

[ladytophamhatt]

yes, with ds3.

the worning after the deed.

i just knew.

also with ds2 I had a -ve result first and was shocked. 2 days later I got a+ve result

[LovelyDear]

i knew about a week before my period was due. i had the norks thing - i remember saying to my dh, don't touch them they feel really weird for some reason and as the sentence came out of my mouth, i realised why. i started vomiting later that week. i never did a pg test. i just waited for the bump to appear....

[sweetkitty]

yes with all 4 pregnancies knew the tests would be positive before I did them. First two had a feeling that night that, next two a few days after. Cannot explain it it's just a feeling.

[hambo]

Yes - felt dizzy and was really clumsy - also turned into a banshee one night

[georgimama]

Yes.

[twentynine]

Yes, I knew the day after I conceived each time.

[poppy34]

yes -sense of smell became very acute and remember sitting in room with (very clean) work colleague that I could smell across the desk ... went for acupuncture and my lovely acupuncture lady sensed I was too

[Dropdeadfred]

several times I have just known not to buy tampax...

[elkiedee]

The second time, yes - first pregnancy test was negative but I still thought I was, and when I went for the first scan later I must only have been 3 weeks pg when I did the first test (though it was 5 weeks LMP)

[Dropdeadfred]

like this month

[bamboostalks]

No I was really surprised though looking for signs.

[turquoise]

With ds, knew within 10 days.

With dd, knew the day after conception.

[AbstractMouse]

Yes with Dd I felt odd from the off kind of spacey, didn't consciously feel pregnant (although radioactive norks might have given it away if I had mn). But kept having odd daydreams of telling Dp I was pg. Didn't even know how long my cycles were, I only did a test because my boobs were killing me.

It was a reassurance test (that I was not pg) tbh as I had no idea how late I was.

I got home, did the test which came up + within seconds and then cried for about 2 hours lol.
It was a nah I'm not pg test rather than a Yes you are fecking pg test get over it lol.

[IAteDavinaForDinner]

Yep. I remember running up the stairs and my boobs really hurt. Tried to dismiss it but tested as soon as the eBay strips arrived and sure enough, preggers. Wasn't trying so was very . I did 12 tests of 2 different brands

[memoo]

DP and I are ttc, we had a very nice day on Saturday iyswim, today i really feel like i am, my body feels differentm my stomach feels heavy, and my boobs are sore like they get when i'm on my period.

I really feel as though i am pregnant but don't know if its all in my mind!?

[hotpotmama]

Yes with dS3 got heartburn for just one night and knew I had to do a test and I was!

[ilovemyghds]

I did each time. With DC1 I tested and it was negative. Didn't know that the tests did not work until period was due so went out and had a few drinks that weekend (thinking that I wasn't pg obviously, I just believed the test) and then found out the next week that I was. 2nd and 3rd time I kept doing tests - again was testing too early, but felt I was pg and spent a bloody fortune doing a test every couple of days until I had a positive!

[LittlePushka]

Yes, both times within a week of the deed my nails had grown (they never grow) and I had greasy skin on my forehead (never had greasy skin in my life!),

Second time I knew within days!

So for you Droppy!

[memoo]

dropdeadfred, congratulations! xx
