Hey everyone! First post, just looking for some stories really.

I'm on cycle 5, 10dpo and having lots of bizarre symptoms! Not sure if I might just be poorly🤔but I had a sore throat for one day on 9dpo but it disappeared entirely by the time I woke up today! Just curious if this is a thing! We shall find out anyway in a couple days, due on CD12/13.

My BBT also shot up from 36.45 to 36.68 today, so maybe I am just a poorly girl! 😋

my current pregnancy, I had zero symptoms before missed period! And usually I get cramps, sore boobs etc in the week before.

First pregnancy, I had ZERO symptoms until I missed a period then a day later I started getting sore boobs. Up until then i just felt like i do when I'm about to come on my period. I didn't really have any other symptoms until about 7 weeks.

This pregnancy, i actually had an awful sickness and diarrhea bug which coincided with missing my period. I didn't think anything of it until I felt the sore boobs and realised my period was late, that's when I took the test. Other symptoms appeared around 5.5-6 weeks

No symptoms until I missed a period for both pregnancies

No symptoms. I was sure it would be negative! I had barely any symptoms the whole pregnancy though. Brushing my teeth made me gag more than usual, that was it.

It took me over two years to get pregnant. Even though I knew from other comments that basically you can't distinguish between pregnancy and PMS, I still tried to symptom spot. Over the 25+ cycles of trying, I experienced every combination of symptoms and non-symptoms. I got my BFP recently after IVF and was pretty adamant it hadn't worked before I took the test because I had my most classic period symptoms. I've also had a few cycles of IVF before this one and had different symptoms from the hormones each time, which further convinces me that symptom spotting is a fool's errand. All that time I wasted fretting - be free of the tyranny of it!

The two times I've been pregnant I had no symptoms both times before a positive test. Other months when I've not been pregnant I've had all sorts of symptoms!

PMT on steroids, I could have argued with my own shadow, exh & I nearly split up because I was so bad, I called him all the names under the sun. We were away on holiday & the day we came home I knew something wasn't right, I had one test at home & I did it practically as soon as I walked in the door & got a bfp.
