I am due on this Wednesday. For the last few days i have been feeling sick and tired and a bit queasy. Could i really have symptoms this early on? Is it more likely that its just pms??

Believe it or not I actually already have a toddler but that happened more by luck than judgement iykwim. We were ttc in a "we'll see what happens" kind of way.

What do you guys think?

You could have early symptms. If you OV'd earlish/mid cycle and are 10DPO or more then you'd have had that hormone rush - which could in turn start symptoms. Always possible. Good luck!

If i'm not due on till Wed, is it worth doing a test yet?

OP posts:

Again, depends how oregnant you think you are. If you think you OVd 10 days ago or more, it may show up. How disappointed will you be to get a negative right now? If you can deal with it and not feel too gutted, test. If you suspect a negative would be too disappointing, why not leave testing till Thursday?

Thanks Hulababy - i'm not the most patient of people - last time i knew when i was only 2 weeks gone!!!

TBH, i would be disappointed with a negative but not overly so as we've only been trying for a few months.

By my sums i should have ovulated approx 14 days ago - so would pregnancy still be a possibility??

Sorry for all the naff questions X

PG still possible. Think 10DPO is considered the key time for sustaining a pg.

10 days past ovulation - sorry. So, you think you may be 14DPO

Hello

I found out I was pregnant yesterday, I have been ttc and I used s clear blue test which gave me a BFP - been dying to type those letters!!!

Anyway because I was ttc I bought the new Clear Blue test which allows you to test up to 4 days before your period so being impatient I tested last week before days before my af due date and got a negatative. So you could do it and waste a test or hang on until your due date, I reckon if I had hels out and tested the day before it still would have been negative as when i got the positive result on my due day it was so faint but the line was def there.

Goodluck!!!!!!!!!!

OK - another symptom i have is lots of saliva in my mouth! Is this a preg symptom?

You could be pregnant. I got a BFP last Wednesday but I had symptoms a week before, tiredness and a bit of nausea. I did a test on Monday (two days before I was due) and it was negative, by Wednesday it was positive.

I dont think the saliva thing is a pregnancy symptoms, but can happen if your about to be sick.

Ok - just checked my dairy for dates etc. I am actually due on on Tuesday and would have ovulated approx 13 days ago. I have no idea if i'm ovulating regularly. Is it still possible that I could be pregnant? So sorry to sound so daft!!

Do you know if you had sex around that time. If you did, then it is possible that you are.

idontreallyknowmuch - I got my BFP on Saturday last week 2 days early. I had been having similar symptoms to you for about a week and just knew I was pregnant. I used a clearblue test, just the normal one. The earliest it could have been was 13 DPO, but more like 12 or 10 and still BFP. Good luck

thanks - really want to test but dont want to get mu hopes up - is it possible to get pms symptoms and still be pregnant?

OP posts:
hester · 29/08/2005 14:47

I think the excess saliva IS a pg symptom - it was with me, anyway. However, I have always found the symptoms of early pregnancy and just-about-to-have-a-period impossible to tell apart, so my advice would be to cautiously hopeful, not to get your hopes up too high, and TEST on Wednesday!

Very best of luck. Hope you get that lovely BFP.
