Hey,

My period is due in the next day or two but the last week i have had a feeling i was pregnant. I did a couple of tests 3 days ago and there was a very very very very faint pos (could have been an evap), anyway my boobs have been a bit sore today and yesterday but today i held a friends hungry newborn baby, he started to cry fr a feed and my boobs started tingling like mad!!

Is this possible or am i loosing it?!!!

I havent tested since friday as i made a promise to myself i wouldnt, i may do a FR in the morning but if i am feeling strong i shall try hold off until tues x

no your not losing it I knew I was pregnant before I did a test had achy boobs and felt "different"
actually before I had the achy boobs I thought I was pregnant I even said to my friend I thought I was and she was like no your imaginig it its just stress etc so did a test it was negative but I knew I was went doctors he wouldnt do a test so I went and got a clearblue digital that day went and did it in the middle of the day said I was pregnant!!!

Also dont bother with the tests that have lines on them I did 2 off them and got a very very faint line the very first one was early responce that said negative. The ones with faint lines read on the internet you never or very rarely get a fake posiitve even if a faint line. Get a clearblue digital one and do it when your period was as due. Then ones with lines just make you wonder if its really positive at least with clearblue it says pregnant or not pregnant!!!!!

I have always known I have been pg before I tested. Like Mimi there was just something different but nothing you could put your finger on.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you :)

It's Monday morning, what better time to test?

Several people I know have said tingly boobs were their first symptom. Me, I'm always symptomless until a couple of weeks past due, but it definitely sounds possible.

I suspected I was pg before I was due as my boobs had grown in the previous few days they were straining my shirt buttons!

I agree with using Clear Blue Digital, for me I liked that there was no guessing with lines it was clearly written

Dont feel very hopeful this morning, (.)(.)s arent as sore today and i am rather crampy so maybe AF is on her merry way :( Im trying to hold of testing until tomorrow. thanks guys

Fx you get good news tomorrow

I was trying to conceive for a year and remember two particular months where I really felt pregnancy (sore breasts etc) but wasn't. And of course the month I actually got pregnant was the month that I had no symptoms at all. I really hope you get your BFP but know how easy it is to symptom-spot when you really want to be pregnant.

Thanks for advice guys. I didnt test! I held strong, i may do one tomorrow..No sign of Af, i felt a little crampy earlier but there gone now, will let you know asap!

Does your wee smell a bit strange? Kind of sweet and sugar-puffy? That was one of the first signs I had.

clutchingatastraw · 23/05/2011 21:39

Cattleprod, I read your reply and then i went and had a sniff of my urine and yes it does smell like that!! exactly like a sugar-puff in fact!

But i have been having cramps the last 10 mins...i remember getting thm when pregnant with ds so i know it is normal..i never went for my walk this afternoon so didnt get a test, can i do my FMU in a cup and save it for later?

Hi, just stumbled on this, you can indeed save your wee, the HCG level does decrease in it but only if you leave it 24hrs + if I remember correctly. Also sweet smelling urine can be related to having a high sugar level I think. Good luck, I have my fingers crossed for you :)
