It's been 7 years since I was last PG. DH and I are hankering after a last-minute addition to the family, but haven't started trying seriously. We ran out of condoms last week and moved over to withdrawal method.

I ovulated around last week and although it is less than a week since it happened, I feel like I may be PG. With previous DC I knew I had conceived as I felt different. I have exactly the same symptoms, namely, boobs I can't bear to be touched, mild nausea, taste differences, hot flushes and huge mood swings. I have even gone off chocolate FGS! So who thinks I am mad, or could I be?

If you feel like the other times then maybe, you need to poas!

Last time I had to wait till 3 weeks PO before I got a +ve, even though I knew, so this time I'm trying to be restrained.

It's 7 years since I have been pregnant and I also feel as though I might be but have 2 weeks to wait until I could test

Thanks I thought I was going mad thinking I had symptoms already Smile

I feel the same. DH has looked at me like I'm barking. Given that I am now an old gimmer pushing 40, I think he will be amazed if it has happened this way, but I do feel that I could be. Although it might be my pre-menopausal wishful thinking!

Did you have the symptoms as early before?

MyDaydream · 14/04/2012 22:15

Whirly I'm in the same boat, OV last week but having loads of symptoms already. Massive Googling, and starting a similar thread yesterday myself suggests that I might not be mad! Itching to test, but so far resisting the urge.

WhirlyByrd · 14/04/2012 23:12

Toxic yes, I did. I spent 2 weeks feeling really odd, all the above symptoms plus I was a complete bitch to DH. I got through about 200 PG tests before I finally got a +ve. He thought I was completely bonkers and imagining it because I was desperate to get PG. He is sitting here rolling his eyes at my madness.
