Hello! I am new to mumsnet and looking for advice!

My husband and I made the big decision to ditch contraception and go for it! In fact, dh is less nervous about it all than I am and is very excited about the whole thing! However, having spent the whole of my adult life so far trying to avoid getting pregnant, I have no idea as to whether it is even possible!
What are the early signs that might give away that I might be pg? I don't expect it to happen for a while but it would be nice to know if there was anything I could look out for, apart from the lack of af of course! Thank you in advance! I am 29 and my husband is 30.

Definitely the boobs! tiredness and weeing a lot also.

I also get period pains which make me think i'm not pg each time, but actually i am, and i find i get those period type pains every month for the first three months of pregnancy.

Good luck!

You can smell everything and some smells you love are suddenly horrible (perfume coffee)
metallic taste in your mouth too
!Good luck !)
