Hi all,
New to mumsnet! I am currently 6-7DPO.

I have been feeling SUPER 'heavy' in my lower stomach all day, feels like AF is on the way at any given moment! Lots of light / dull cramps / fluttery feelings in my stomach too.
I've been SO TIRED it's unreal; I could barely keep my eyes open today.

Can I ask what early signs you guys had when you got pregnant?
Thank you ❤️🥰

Desire for hot chocolate. I never considered it at any other time but it was a feature of all my pregnancies, even before I took a test!

namechanging202020 · 21/01/2021 19:07

Horrendous constipation 😫😫 felt nothing like it except 2 pregnancies!
Made me take a test couple of days before my period was due 2nd time and it was positive.

Light headedness, very thirsty, waking up at night to pee, thought I had diabetes... 🤦‍♀️

EllyNC · 21/01/2021 19:09

I was really thirsty and also quite gassy- both times. Though both weren’t until about the time of my missed period. With DS, I got incredibly big Blue-veins all over my chest and boobs About a week before my bfp!

AuntyMabelandPippin · 21/01/2021 19:16

So bloody tired. I fell asleep as soon as I got home from work for my first pregnancy, never managed that the next three times...

Notnt · 21/01/2021 19:31

Weirdly I could hear and smell everything, like some sort of bloodhound. 😂
Certain foods I usually liked also made me gag just thinking about them, I would probably have thrown up if I had to look at them for too long in a shop.

Sore boobs started at 2-3 weeks. Extreme tiredness was about 6 weeks or so as far as I remember

NickMyLipple · 21/01/2021 20:21

I felt something wasn't quite right down below. I thought I maybe had thrush and got a treatment for it. Tested at 12dpo and boom, two lines.

Cuntitinthebin · 21/01/2021 20:22

Blood taste in mouth.

Sick feeling.

Sore boobs.

Greenmarmalade · 21/01/2021 20:24

I feel the same symptoms as pregnancy every month. The only difference I can really spot is that I feel jabbing at implantation. Other than that, I feel knackered, bloated, dizzy and sick with pmt so it’s so hard to tell.

alwiejsnsl · 21/01/2021 20:24

Sneezing

Sidalee7 · 21/01/2021 20:24

Coffee made me gag and I felt like I had period pains.

MrsKoala · 21/01/2021 20:24

Migraines and blindness in on eye from the day after conception with all 3. Also horrendous stomach bloating. By the 4th week I was wearing trouser extenders and everyone had guessed.

Amichelle84 · 21/01/2021 20:25

Early signs for me both times have been acid reflux, gagging when I brush my teeth, falling asleep super early, nauseous and vommiting

PickAChew · 21/01/2021 20:26

Pregnancy 1 - feeling like I had a water infection and dog tired.
Pregnancy 3 - horrendous heartburn when I drank a hot chocolate.

Both set the tone for the entire pregnancy.

Underpaidsnackbitch · 21/01/2021 20:27

The worst constipation! And sore boobs!

Livingthedream89 · 21/01/2021 20:28

What I thought was a hangover lasted 4 days Confused realised it might not just be the alcohol and did a test.

214 · 21/01/2021 20:29

A craving for Malibu and coke!!!

Mamascoven · 21/01/2021 20:29

Veiny boobs even before period was due!

ArchbishopOfBanterbury · 21/01/2021 20:30

Sore boobs. Loads of saliva. Dull ache like period pain.

youdialwetile · 21/01/2021 20:31

Hot feet. So weird but it happened early on with all 3 times.

MostlyAmbridgeandcoffee · 21/01/2021 20:35

Strange upper back pain both times and hot flushes

Roselilly36 · 21/01/2021 20:39

Tiredness, crampy period pains, tea tasted vile - like the milk was off, totally went off chocolate- unheard of! Craved healthy food.

LeslieYep · 21/01/2021 20:39

Increased average heart rate. Jumped about 4-5 beats per minute. That's what prompted me to test both times.

abitconfusedd · 21/01/2021 20:47

Thank you all! Some really interesting ones there! We are trying for our first so nothing to compare this to! 🤣🙈
