Very early pregnancy symptoms

[BrownXeyes]

Can people give me an idea of what symptoms they had if any before they were able to take a test about 1 week - 10 days after ovulation thanks

Hi there - this thread is a little old. [[https://www.mumsnet.com/pregnancy/signs-and-symptoms
If you want to find out about the signs and symptoms of pregnancy, we’ve got more information here]]. MNHQ

A huge period cramp. Just one that lasted about a minute. Boobs sore. Feeling slightly 'off' like mildly faint and then I got a cold. Both times I've been pregnant

I was STARVING hungry 24/7 no matter what I ate, for about the first three weeks.

Terrible diahorrea (sp??)

So far I've had tender nipples nauser once and a metallic taste in my mouth but I don't know if I am pregnant yet and if I am then am nearly 3 weeks.

Period type cramps for 2 weeks bad back sore boobs and very hungry, thought I was getting my first period after nexplanon removal turns out i am pregnant caught straight away!

Needing the loo 2 or 3 times a night
Insomnia/not being able to get back to sleep once I'd been to the loo
Not being able to string a sentence together properly and forgetting the word I wanted to use - like when I have a hangover

Sore achy boobs!

I didn't have any symptoms before my positive test. With both pregnancies I got a positive test at 9dpo.

I had a tugging pain above my belly button for 2 weeks

I didn't have many but my first every symptom was actually a food aversion. I thought I'd cook myself a bacon and egg sandwich but smelled the egg whisky it was cooking and heaved. I thought it was off so I checked the dates and put them in water - they were fine. I wasted 5 eggs before I realised maybe it wasn't the eggs! 2 weeks later and a positive test! I was only 4 weeks when I got my BFP so can't have been more than 2 weeks when I had my aversion!

I had a lot of errors in my previous post haha I meant to say "whilst the egg was cooking"

I noticed that I smelled different DOWN THERE.

I just knew that my body was in a different state before even doing a test.

This is all great to hear thanks guys!

Thanks,

I have had a tugging pain in the top of my tummy, I have a hey arms/legs, tired all the time, my favourite food I suddenly think tastes completely vile, not hungry all the time but when I eat I'm eating more/bigger portions. I completely went mental at my partner last night then next minute was crying my eyes out to him and still 24 hours later I couldn't tell you why! X

Sore boobs, sensitive teeth (only right at the start, not since), a weird smell in my nose that didn't leave for the longest time, and when I dtd with hubby the night before I took my first pregnancy test I noticed that my cervix was way higher than normal for that time of my cycle - normally he had to be careful around that time of the month or he'd hit my cervix which was uncomfortable to say the least! Basically a lot of little things that I didn't add up at the time, only later - the sore boobs were very much a pre-AF symptom anyway, I thought I was imagining the smell and I figured the sensitive teeth just meant I should use better toothpaste. The cervix thing got me wondering and hoping though, which is why I took the test the next morning ...

I got my BFP around 11/12 dpo, before that date I had a very stiff neck, excema suddenly flared up on my hands and my cat became ultra clingy. Could have all been sheer coincidences though!!

Wow that cat thing sounds strange!!!! Haha congratulations though!!! X

I've had cramping pretty much since the day I conceived is that normal? I'm 5 weeks 3days. Very sore boobs also and extremely tired! Also needing to wee in the middle of the night which is rare for me!

Super tired, before everything else. I thought it was just an active weekend. Proper lying around not really functioning

Hunger. Like you haven't eaten in a week.

Sod all really. I have every symptom under the sun for months, then AF turned up.

The month I was actually pregnant, I had nothing unusual. I had cramps and sore boobs, but these are also AF signs so I thought she was about the show up. The only difference was that the cramps felt more like stretches and went on for a whole week but with no AF. That's when I started to realise maybe AF wasn't late but actually wasn't coming.

I think symptom spotting can drive you a bit stir crazy and generally isn't very helpful

I think you snare right there about symptom spotting! There's such a fine line between Af and early symptoms isn't there! X

Crushingly tired. Like could barely move. Also feeling very nauseous. This was 3 days before I was due. Still, it didn't click. It was only when my pregnant friend said 'you know you're pregnant right?' That it all made sense.
