Just that really. If any... did you experience any early signs of pregnancy before missed period.. period in 7 days and hoping this is our month x

Symptoms I have had... but could all be PMS symptoms too? Would I have PMS symptoms this earlier if it is period?

  • bloating, really bad today
  • dull period like cramps in lower abdomen and back (more in my back)
  • heavy feeling on left side of stomach (hard to explain)
  • dry or water like CM (not a lot)
  • sickly feeling today but not enough to make me say I feel sick

I'd say my lower back dull cramping has been my most significant symptom...

The biggest sign was my resting heart rate began to rise. I have a FitBit which charts it.

I also had quite a big of cramping and sore boobs from 7DPO.

@Scarletthoping yes my cramping has been ongoing now for nearly a week which I find unusual as obviously my period still isn't due for 7 days and a week ago wasn't due for 14 days. But unsure if this maybe is normal for PMS

Did anyone have a uncomfortable feeling during sex? I feel an almost uncomfortable pulling sensation when having sex

I had a horrific metallic taste in my mouth from very early on, even earlier than 7 days before period due. It didn't go away until about 12 weeks pregnant, both times but worse the second pregnancy. All food tasted bad. Very sensitive sense of smell and particularly sensitive to certain smells like curry spices and onions.

I had back ache and was unusually tired about ten days after trying to conceive but before it was time to do a test. I did a test about a week later and it was positive. The back ache and tiredness made sense then.

Yeah I knew way before I could take a test.

It was mainly the boobs for me. Absolutely bloody massive nipples all of a sudden and huge mega sore tits!

also had some lightning crotch sensations

buuuut, in the few months before the BFP I had lists of symptoms like yours but turned out to be not pregnant (we were ttc and I became a bit obsessed).

I hope you get the outcome you want.

@Bigoldmachine yep I think I'm becoming obsessed over every symptom haha! It's intriguing how everyone's symptoms are so different... with my first the sore boobs and metallic taste were my biggest symptoms so maybe as I'm not having them it's not the month ....

Bloating and temperature rising x

TTCbaby2x · 20/07/2023 17:22

My bloating has been awful today
