I have no clue what DPO I am could be any where between 2-4 even 5. I only dtd once on CD12. Corking Positive OPK CD14 am but could of swore blind I ovulated CD13, super sharp pain in the evening. I’ve noticed I get this every month around the same time either CD13 or CD14 and always seems to be when I get my first positive OPK not long after. I didn’t test CD13 pm I was to tired and getting annoyed with it all tbh but had a negative opk CD13 very early am.

My nipples are really sore this is a new once for me. I thought yesturday is it my bra to tight, so I’m in the house all day today so thought I’d leave it off, they actually feel more sore.

I swore blind I was going to do the whole relaxed approach and not symptom watching this month after feeling so peed off and feeling it’s never going to happen.

Probably sore nipples is nothing and just a new thing my body is tricking me with this month.

But interested to see what was everyone else’s first sign and what dpo in their BFP’s.

With my first 2 pregnancies over a decade ago now I didn’t have anything I just knew and yep was pregnant.

NIL on both.

Pregnancy test first (always done them early)

DD pregnancy- no symptoms from start to finish. Felt great!

This pregnancy - from about 6 weeks my nipples felt like they’re been sat out in the Sahara desert without adequate suncream for 8 summers. However, that’s gone now (12 weeks) and other than that no other symptoms.

So unspeakably exhausted I sat down in the middle of a pavement because I couldn’t walk any further.

I'm 5-6weeks pregnant, only found out few days ago. I had some spotting and mild cramps 2 days before my expected period, but i sometimes had those before. I tested on the morning of expected period day because my BBT remain elevated and I had strange dreams. The only symptom so far is constipation...

Knittingupastorm · 13/09/2021 15:16

Complete lack of any PMS symptoms, which I normally get quite strongly. Normally I get significant mood changes/anxiety in the few days before my period and that was completely absent

2021babyhope · 13/09/2021 15:18

Sounds weird but I had really veiny boobs! Unfortunately ended in a chemical but I remember looking in the mirror and saying to my husband why have my veins got so dark 😅

needtogetfit21 · 13/09/2021 15:24

Nausea

StepawayfromtheBiscuittin · 13/09/2021 15:29

Sore boobs on one.
Runny nose on another one - the joys of pregnancy rhinitis
Nausea on all of them

Kirstyx2 · 13/09/2021 15:35

@StepawayfromtheBiscuittin how soon after ovulation did you get sore boobs ? My nipples are really sore but reading it’s probably down to the increase in progesterone after ovulation.

@Kirstyx2 within two weeks I'd say although it's a while ago now Smile

Absolutely nothing at all. I tested two days before my period was due, but only because I was going to festival and was going to be drinking all day. I was certain I wasn't pregnant.

A few days later I started feeling a bit dizzy and weird, then sore boobs. But my period would have been late by then.

rainbowdashsneeze · 13/09/2021 16:49

I've recently got my BFP. I knew I was pregnant at around 2DPO sounds crazy but I had a strange sensation in my lower abdomen and my boobs started aching at around the same time. I got a very faint positive 9DPO and a very clear BFP at 14DPO.

Ellerehj · 13/09/2021 16:55

With pregnancy 1 it was aversion to smoking & alcohol and tea.
Did a test when I was 9 days overdue my period but was fairly irregular so really didn't think I was pregnant

Second pregnancy I could NOT stop eating and I had felt sick if I wasn't eating

I am now due my period in a week and I'm displaying all the textbook symptoms of pregnancy, dark sore sore nipples, twinges in lower abdomen, increased sensitivity to smell and nausea. Going to test on Sunday 🤞🏼

Anon778833 · 13/09/2021 17:07

No spotting at all in the days leading up to what usually would have been my period.

And my boobs puffed right up and felt like they were going to explode.

NotAnotherPylon · 13/09/2021 17:11

There was a pungent smell of garlic in my nose with both my pregnancies, even when there was no garlic anywhere near me. Just thinking about that years later makes me feel a bit queasy. I had no idea what it was with DS1, but as soon as that smell appeared again, I knew I was pregnant!

rosed1008 · 13/09/2021 17:12

My boobs change shape almost instantly. Also usually before a period i dry up CM wise if i am pregnant I have buckets of the stuff!

Shmithecat2 · 13/09/2021 17:14

Nothing other than a missed period.

hermioneweasley44 · 13/09/2021 17:15

Weeing a lot.
Extreme fatigue.
Sore boobs.
Nausea. Not sickness. Sometimes nausea is worse.
Heightened sense of smell. Walked into my kitchen and recoiled at the smell of our basil plants. It seemed so potent to me but dp couldn't smell anything.

eloiseislost · 13/09/2021 18:54

A missed period.

AudTheDeepMinded · 13/09/2021 18:57

A small bleed which I thought was an early period but only lasted two days and turns out to have been implantation bleeding. Day period was due extreme tiredness, I was hiking and kept having to sit down and rest It was thinking 'WTF is wrong with me?' that got me thinking I could be pregnant after all.

MrsFin · 13/09/2021 18:57

Sore breasts. And DH said I smelled different. He knew before I did.

Ughmaybenot · 13/09/2021 18:58

Throwing up, several times a day… that has yet to stop and I’m currently 32 weeks 😂
Also my boobs felt like they were on fire.

Kirstyx2 · 14/09/2021 07:56

I’ve got terrible nausea today .. not reading to much into it though as I’ve just read online it can be the increase in progesterone at this point. So sore nips and nausea 3/5 DPO not sure what I am. And here is me so convinced I love admit symptom spotting this time who the hell was I kidding lol.
