Did anyone 'just know' they were pregnant before testing?

[bluewisteria]

I've heard lots of people in real life mention that they 'just knew' they were pregnant. Did anyone on here feel that? And were the right or wrong??

I suspected with both my children and wasn't surprised at all, more 'thought so', but not sure I ever definitely 'knew' before testing.
I was however certain from the moment I found out that they were both girls, and they were.

Did anyone 'just know' and how often were you right or wrong?

I may sound crazy but last time I swear I felt the sperm heading up my fallopian tube! We hadn't had unprotected sex for 5.5 years though so could have been more a reaction to it .
About a week later I started with tingly nipples, tiredness and immense hunger so was quite sure i was pg b4 AF was late.

[rachelrawrrr]

mrsgentle none as of yet, but still no AF! And my nausea is getting so much worse.. I can smell the cat food from the other side of the room and my shampoo is making me feel so sick I reckon if I am, it'll be a good couple of weeks until things show up.... still peeing on a stick every other day though
any news with you? xx

[Mrsgentle2014]

haha.. I feel like I'm peeing on a stick CONSTANTLY! But, each time, they are strong BFN. Nausea has stayed the same - getting waves of it every now and then. Dreams continue to be SO vivid - OH said its like Im running in my sleep sometimes. WEIRD.
My boobs are so sore and my nipples are unbelievably sensitive - the cold hurts them at the moment.
Crampy feelings and back ache but NO AF.
:( Just wish AF would just come already, so I can continue!

[Mrsgentle2014]

How many days dpo are you, rachel?

[rachelrawrrr]

sounds exactly like me! it's just awful
I don't even know because I'm only 2 and a bit weeks off the pill, so I've got absolutely no idea not charted any temps or anything (seems confusing) I just don't remember feeling this terrible coming off of other forms of contraception
time shall tell, but I don't want to wait hahaha

[Mrsgentle2014]

I came off my pill in August and since then Ive had 2 periods - one brought on by an internal ultrasound scan... so no idea - people do and can fall straight away - its just the not knowing isnt it?
Im half tempted to go and buy a first response early detection test .. if that doesnt show anything - im done and thats me out haha :)

[rachelrawrrr]

when I'd had the implant removed and stopped the depo, by this time AF had come I know it could just be my body regulating itself, but I just feel dreadful!
I've gone and bought some cheap first response ones from amazon, got 15 for just under £3, the reviews say they can be used up to 6 days before you'd usually show if that's any help? X

[Mrsgentle2014]

oh really?? what strength are they? xx

[rachelrawrrr]

I think they pick up from a 10 strength (is that clear? I'm new hahaha)

[Mrsgentle2014]

ahhh yes, i understand! I just ordered a load... still fighting the urge to go buy an early detection one though as my husband is at work tonight and im bored and I want wine. haha

[rachelrawrrr]

I know what you mean haha I've got half a bottle in the fridge, from boxing day but I just daren't touch it although I may just go and eat lots of ice cream just made tea and I can't eat it

[Rox19]

Yes 2 times I fainted around9/10 dpo and 3 times (3 sep preg) was vvvv drunk on virtually no wine, like 2 small glasses.

[rachelrawrrr]

I've just checked the calendar and it's actually 3 and a half weeks since I stopped the pill... bloomin' hell body, if you're regulating, you're taking your sweet time!

[Mrsgentle2014]

My body, so far, has taken 4 months post pill and still hasnt regulated - it can take years for some people! :(

rox - I had one glass of wine over christmas and felt absolutely out of it!! keep feeling Dizzy. NO IDEA what is happening..

runs out to tesco to buy another test

[rachelrawrrr]

I'm hoping my early response tests are here Friday or Saturday, the ones I have in the house aren't anything special maybe I'm just hoping too much :/

[Mrsgentle2014]

I dont think I can wait that long! haha I feel that way too... the longer this goes on, the more likely I think im not... x

[rachelrawrrr]

I really don't want to wait either haha
I know what you mean, I'm just so desperate to be upduffed that it's probably all psychological :/

[Mrsgentle2014]

very true.. i think I may just go to tesco and have a bimble around there... :)

[rachelrawrrr]

Well if you do, we'll be waiting eagerly for the response

[Mrsgentle2014]

I can tell you now, it will be BFN. Im not expecting anything else at the moment...

[rachelrawrrr]

I hope you get a BFP soon, it's an awful wait

[Mrsgentle2014]

TBH, I dont know what I really want it to be.. just want to know either way - BFP or AF. :)

[rachelrawrrr]

That's actually just how I'm feeling haha. I just want things to settle down so I can actually know when it does happen

[Mrsgentle2014]

right, to tesco it is! cya in a bit! x

[musicalendorphins2]

Not with my first, but after that, yes. The symptoms began before I missed a period.
