Yeah yeah I know you've all seen a similar thread before!!

Just wanted to ask what is the first change you notice with your tummy once you have concieved and when does this occur. Do you swell at particular times of the day or all the time, niggly feelings? Obviously you get bigger but just wanted to know if there was extremely early signs of any changes in that area!

Also anyone have any other early pregnancy signs? Just wondered if I would notice any by now. Ovulation started last Tuesday.

I always had a millio signs while ttc #3 child
It took 3 years so I had plenty of times to obsess.
The month I got my + test I had no symptoms - I had more of the trad preg symptoms when I got my period
At 6 weeks I got some nausea and sore boobs and round tummy (water retention I think)

My main one was morning sickness, from 3wks and 5days, till 5mths , but would do it all again in a heart beat!

My tummy felt swollen about 3-4 days before my period was due. Felt very different to usual PMS symptoms, which is why I did the pregnancy test so early. But I had recently had abdominal surgery to remove an ectopic so I was more sensitive than most! I don't think most women feel anything until well after their period is due.

I don't remember any tummy soreness before quite late in the pregnancy (6-7m), due to the ligaments stretching. I'm not sure you're supposed to feel anything so early.
