My experience was I got the weird metallic taste and raging thirst and suddenly felt exhausted very early, not sure my period was even late because I wasn’t tracking it at the time. I definitely felt different, very odd. I only took a test so I could go to the doctors to see what was wrong with me and I knew they’d ask if I was pregnant. Didn’t actually expect it to be positive.

Sore boobs came a week or so later and nausea at about 5 weeks or so.

Second time round I didn’t really have any symptoms until the nausea hit, again at about 5 weeks.

With my last child within days of conceiving!!!

I had been feeling dreadful for over a week and of course when I got a positive it all made sense.

I felt a bit rubbish but couldn't pin point it, and had insomnia. Tested when my period was 2 days late.

Next day had a horrible taste in my mouth. 4 days after testing I started feeling a little bit nauseous. Nausea got worse later.

I started feeling sick before I got a positive test. Got positive about 12 or 13 dpo. So sickness probably started 9 or 10 dpo.

I knew very specifically what my pre period symptoms were even by about 9/10DPO. I'd been so tuned into my TTC journey that towards the end I didn't even need to test as I knew exactly that I was going to start my period. However the month those symptoms didn't come I knew I was pregnant so I'd say I knew at about 9dpo.

With my first I got hot flushes about a week before my period was due! It was weird because I'd never experienced hot flushes like that but I still didn't think anything of it.
This time I lost my appetite about 4 days before my period was due. It never came back! It just turned into sickness around 4/5 weeks

Backache and felt exhausted all of a sudden about 2 weeks after ttc. Did a preg test the following week and it was positive

I’m in the same boat only DPO2/3 and nauseated reminds me of how I was on my first when a few weeks pregnant but definitely too soon to be pregnancy symptoms!

I remember thinking I feel dif with my first pregnancy. I just knew. I'm just not sure right now. I'm overthinking. I prob have to wait until my period comes or doesn't. I just wish i could find out now! It's torture

@L3tsD0Th1S2020 Good luck for when you do test, the wait is awful I'm in the same boat 😩 trying to keep myself busy/not symptom spot. 3DPO and I'm just constantly tired even though I sleep well during the night 🤔
