Hi I'm new here!

Me and my partner have decided to try for a baby so I thought I would come on here as we are not planning on telling anyone we are trying at the moment.

I'm currently 7dpo and I've had this horrible stabbing pain in my left breast has anyone else experienced this?

But other than that I haven't had much symptoms.

The only times I’ve been pregnant have been when I’ve had no symptoms (until a few days after my missed period where I have felt sick). The rest of the months ttc were spent symptom spotting, convinced I was pregnant when I had sore boobs, dull aches, etc. It’s a crazy time!

For me very little at all. I suddenly developed a mad craving for fresh oranges and had to eat one day. I've not eaten an orange since pregnancy, 15 and 13 years ago!

SnappingAtHeels · 27/08/2024 17:20

OOH! just recalled. Both times I also had cravings for tinned peaches and vanilla ice cream.

I think my cravings were pretty tame tbh.

I was also dreadfully sleepy- but I worked until 10 months and had a 4 hour train commute daily. But I used to fall asleep at my desk.

SnappingAtHeels · 27/08/2024 17:21

aaah! Not 10 months. I worked until just before birth.

Because I wanted to max my mat leave.

[facepalm]

Good luck ! 🍀

Massive nipples, every single time even before I've tested 😂😂😂

KnickerlessParsons · 27/08/2024 17:37

DH knew before I did. He said I smelled different.

violetcuriosity · 27/08/2024 17:42

Vivid dreams and a stabbing pain in the ovary area.

worldwidetravel2017 · 27/08/2024 18:52

When i was preg last year i had some burping early on
And some chest pain

FeedMeBrunch · 27/08/2024 18:54

My first symptom was being physically unable to stop yawning repeatedly during a conversation at work 😂

CosmicLove · 27/08/2024 19:40

Increased cm was my first symptom in all 3 of my pregnancies. Other than that, I didn't have any typical "pregnancy symptoms" till after missed period and mostly not till after 6 weeks. Good luck xx

sel2223 · 27/08/2024 21:25

No really early symptoms. I got tender breasts/sore nipples a day or 2 after i missed a period.

First pregnancy, nothing else until about 7 weeks when the sickness hit. Plus food aversions, thirst, tiredness.

Current pregnancy, sickness and extreme tiredness hit around 5.5 weeks, by 7 weeks headaches, extreme thirst, diarrhea and dizzy spells joined the party too

honeyfox · 27/08/2024 21:29

Metallic taste in my mouth, and momentary dizziness.

Hey 6DPO so similar cycle to OP!
I've started having very vivid dreams the last couple of nights which I also had during my previous pregnancy but this wasn't until later on. I didn't have any early symptoms until around 3 weeks with DC1, first symptoms then was heartburn, nausea, fatigue and vivid dreams

Cressie2 · 28/08/2024 21:28

Tender boobs and tiredness!

Dipsydoodlenoodle · 28/08/2024 22:16

Sore boobs (not just sore, but unbearable to have anything touching them) and oh so cold, just could not get warm.

Oliveandbay · 28/08/2024 22:17

Hot flushes and vivid dreams. Both times pregnant

whatwouldtheydo · 28/08/2024 22:21

From time of missed period I had really dark nipples/areola and extreme tiredness (like nothing I have every experienced, couldn't keep my eyes open). Exciting times, sending luck and best wishes x

yewtreee · 28/08/2024 22:28

Cramps, missed period, then severe sickness for 6 months.

dizzydizzydizzy · 28/08/2024 22:41

With DC2 I realized about 2 days before my period was due. I was cooking some mackerel and couldn't stand the smell.

nanoghost · 28/08/2024 23:09

I felt ovulation cramps from my right side. I went for an early scan and asked which overy the pregnancy came from and it was the right one! It was mad really. It was a very different type of cramp and very localised and moved over a few days. None of my friends had this though so I don't think it's very common.

Took a test that day and had the faintest lines!

Elliesmumma · 28/08/2024 23:14

Mood swings, cramping like really bad trapped wind. Then two days after the cramps (sorry, TMI) 💩💩💩
