How early did you get symptoms? TTC #2

Hi ladies!

I am pretty certain I'm pregnant, this would be #2 and I'll be grabbing some tests later as I get no one can tell me if I am! I was just wondering how early some of you might have experienced symptoms? With my first I didn't get anything until about week 7/8, so much so I FREAKED because there was no indication I was apart from a positive test.

This time though, my boobs a TINGLING, I was sick last night and feel overall nauseous, however I'm not due for 6 days 🙄

I'm easy either way and I'm not 'symptom spotting' (it'll (hopefully) happen when it happens), but they're hard to ignore!

about a week before my period was due I noticed symptoms that weren’t my normal PMS so I assumed I was pregnant

No early symptoms for me. The very earliest anything starts for me is around 6 weeks and then I get noticable veins on my chest and one big vein that runs from my top half down to my bottom half, and then a couple days after that im unable to brush my teeth properly as it makes me vomit and this becomes my morning sickness then I usually get HG and then thats my life for the rest of the pregnancy hahaha all the food aversions come around the time morning sickness starts, strong sense of smell around the same time also. I actually dont really get any sort of spre boobs or anything until around the 3rd trimester and after birth.

Thanks! I don't really get PMS so have never really known apart from maybe the day it turns up, I might get a 'weird' feeling.

I'll obviously do a test but with being 6 days out (which can easily fluctuate unhelpfully!) I feel its too soon to take a test!

Helpful to get other peoples opinions 🙂

I got bad constipation 5 or so days before I was due with both of mine. The pain was so bad I thought it might be implantation pain so I was fairly sure the first time and certain the second.

I didn’t do a test till the day before my period was due as I didn’t want to be like is it a faint line or an evap line etc. when I did test it was clearly a positive immediately

I didn’t get any nausea until 6 weeks, I thought I had escaped it this time then spent the next 12 weeks vomiting.

First symptoms for this pregnancy (no 2) were constipation, dizzy spells, fatigue and cramping but no bleeding. I started feeling like this from about 10 dpo.

I had some yesterday but just wondered if I'd eaten something 😂

This is helpful thanks! I've certainly had some constipation, fatigue (assumed this was to do with work/toddler!), dizziness and tingly boobs

Only time will tell I guess

I'm a bit excited that I might be but on the other hand I'm terrified!

Both of my pregnancies I knew at 8dpo. I could actually feel the rush of hormones as soon as baby had properly implanted. Sounds crazy but I know exactly where I was on both occasions when a warmth/dizzy feeling came over me which repeated a few times that day. No other symptoms but I'd recognise that feeling again immediately if it were to happen a third time. Faint positive the next morning on both occasions.

both first and 3rd I felt weak, lightheaded and nausea at 9/10dpo. With second bit nauseas at 14dpo and missed period. the nausea disappeared each time a couple days later and returned at 6 weeks

I do think the fatigue feels different with pregnancy as I also have a toddler. I felt more sleepy than just tired. I actually fell asleep midday which I would normally never do!
