Very early signs you might be pregnant.

[Paperblank]

Just wondering what your very first indications were? It's way too early for me to test but I've got tender boobs which is not typical for me during my cycle and period type cramps, and again not typical for me.

I am probably clutching at a million straws but am interested in your experiences.

Hi there - this thread is a little old. [[https://www.mumsnet.com/pregnancy/signs-and-symptoms
If you want to find out about the signs and symptoms of pregnancy, we’ve got more information here]]. MNHQ

Nessie please don't worry about sharing - I don't think anyone on MNet would mind if they were following a thread on which a fellow mnetter has got a BFP (big fat positive) it's fab news and so you definitely share!!

POAS this morning. Was negative but I'm not due for another 4 days. The wait continues....

Think I figured out (while awake half the night feeling crap) what 2ww means - it must be so obvious I'm new at this - What a duh I am .

Sorry to hear that Paper, but still a few days to go.

I have at least 6, up to 14 to go.

I felt like this with first one and had to wait bout a week. Only had one other time I thought maybe, but then my angry visitor came with a vengence and showed me different!

Onwards & upwards .

I've been lurking around here for a few days (thank you all ladies, you've kept me sane...well, if this is what sane is!) as I have had really similar symptoms to you Paper (unusually sore boobs and cramps) and the last three nights really bad blocked sinuses which have stopped me sleeping. I am 10dpo and did a test this morning and I just need another set of eyes; My DH is away on business and I can't stop shaking and wondering if my eyes are deceiving me or if there is a faint line here....

Typical, laptop isnt conecting to net so looking on phone. Not very clear on phone but sure looks like very faint line. Know when I was pregnant first time I got a negative at 8am & positive at 11am so maybe try another test in couple of hours? Or tomorrow if you can wait that long?

Yippee for you if its a positive .

Looks very faint :) but do another as Nessie says

Thank you - I will try and hold out until later on and do another and then probably tomorrow too... and, obviously, pretty much everyday until it's more obvious (fx)!! God I hope it is - 7th cycle of trying! For now, and xx

Good luck Porchrules

I had confirmation of my BFP yesterday at the doctors. I have had no symtoms at all and felt better when I wasn't symptom spotting. In the first 3 months it nearly drove me mad! I always knew when AF was
Coming and if felt the same this month. The one thing that made me think it might have happened was the fact that I had no angry, red hormonal chin spots. My face always erupts 2 days before.

Ah congrats MsAR! It's the weirdest thing how the whole process can play such mind games with us!

Hope the rest of the pregnancy is as symptom free MsAR

We were on honeymoon, 4 days in, 4 days after starting to try for a baby for first time, when my ears blocked up solid, I started peeing every half an hour for the remainder of the honeymoon, I got a weird rash on my legs and got a sudden bout of diarrhoea. At the time, I'd didn't realise any of these could be early symptoms and carried on as usual through honeymoon, it was only when we'd been back two days and I suddenly felt dreadfully sick that it occurred I could be already. I couldn't actually believe it could have happened so quick, so dashed to tesco and got a test and did without DH because I didn't want to get his hopes up. That was at 9.30am...then I had to wait all bloody day til he got home from work to tell him! ????

So lovely to have some BFPs! Congratulations!!

Sorry Nessie 2ww = two week wait. The no man's land between could be pregnant and BFP

MN is the place to share this kind of stuff, positive or negative there's always a thread that fits - someone to cheer you on, buck you up or sympathise with

Do come back and tell us porch rules. I'm trying on and off for nearly 18 months, some months I couldn't due to working way!
I think there is so many option out there for us now,checking temps, charts,ovulation sticks etc. I haven't succumbed to this...yet! But glad I can come on here and let the crazy out that I wouldn't in RL
Congrats MsAR great news, happy planning :)

Emotional volatility was the first sign for me. Got into an altercation with a ticket inspector on the train at Waterloo and ended up sobbing uncontrollably in front of everyone - massive, dramatic over reaction. Found out two days later I was preg.

I'm here trying to convince myself I'm only imagining it, as I'm trying at the same time to force myself to face into putting some food in my stomach .

Only trying to convince myself I'm not so I dont drive myself mental waiting. Def not cos I dont want to be. Had been told very unlikely I'd ever have 1 (due to childhood accident), the hope that there could be another miracle is driving me nuts with so long to wait before I'll know for sure.

Why oh why do we have to wait to know!!!!

Oh mom, I wish I had your self control! I started using opks on my third month as my cycles were so wonky and useless (ranging from 32 - 54 days!!) so in six calendar months I only had four periods and was getting really stressed. The clearblue ones (digis) were total crap and giving me smileys and flasheys all over the bloody shop. This month was the first month of being very disciplined about using the ic opks every day (they are so much better), so I could try and spot ovulation (which I did, on day 28) and I also did temp charting to confirm ovulation (saw a significant rise 5 days later). All very reassuring. This place is amazing though - a very necessary outlet for anxious (and neurotic) souls!

Oh Porchrules, you are making me so excited..... For you!!! I have friends trying for so long with no joy that I always get so excited if I hear a success story . I so so hope you get a positive!!!

We arent actively trying (not trying to prevent either ) so I will just have to wait. Im waiting for my blank refusal of a cup of coffee as my sign either way. I had been testing for 4 days when I got up one morning & just couldnt drink it once I made it. Managed to drink it an hour later though. But was 27 hours later before I got that magic line.

By the way, reason we arent ttc is cos told really no point due to fact we prob would never get pregnant again.

So we've been having fun (which when I hear so many sad stories makes me glad we were told outright it was unlikely ever again).

Oh I'm so glad to hear you're having a lot of fun It's really the best way for all good things in life to happen and you just never know. Twenty minutes cruising round here makes me think anything is possible as what happens to these women is truly amazing!

I had puffy nipples

That's it, I need a nap. I just can't function today.

ooh Lovely bfps

Got a warm and fuzzy glow for you lovely lucky ladies.

On my tww ..... Metallic taste in mouth, cramps/heaviness, tiredness since yesterday(needed 3 hour nap and still slept all night) and itchy left nipple!!! Can't wait to test! X

Don't know how I feel about the fact I feel so much better this morning. I was hoping it was a sign when I felt rubbish but now I'm douubting . And sad bout fact I feel better.

Hope someone gets a bit of good news soon.

I can feel AF coming! I can feel it brewing. Still have 4 days left damn! Must have been virus!
