What were your early pregnancy symptoms?

[peaky297]

I have concerns that I may be pregnant, how I’m not sure as I am on the combined pill, though I know of others who have fallen pregnant when using this.
I am not looking for symptoms in hope as with my wedding being a few months away it would not be the best time for me to conceive.
Symptoms:

• Menstrual type cramps despite being in the middle of a pill pack (so AF is not on the way)
• Slight cramp like pains in my hips / pelvis (mainly on the left)

• Some pains in my lower back

- Feeling very tired by the end of each day / generally lethargic (I slept nearly 10 hours the other night and still felt tired the next day!) - Excess wind / bouts of mild indigestion (sorry for the TMI!) - Milky odourless discharge (sorry… TMI again!) - I would not know if I have missed a period as I take two packs of pills back-to-back, therefore I don’t have a regular monthly visit from AF.

I took a test this morning and it was negative, which set my mind at rest somewhat, but I know people often have a couple of negatives only to have a positive a few days later.
Do my symptoms match up with what any of you had in early pregnancy?
Thanks in advance x

Crying at the tv and being unusually emotional , sore and tingly breasts, a general feeling of difference that I couldn’t explain.

I had a massive bloated belly.... I actually couldn't fasten my jeans (and my weight normally doesn't fluctuate at all). I took a test and was pregnant. No other symptoms for a few weeks after that, and the bloating went away and I was back in my jeans a few days later (until my actual baby bump appeared obviously )

Wait three days or so and test again, especially as you aren't sure when your period would be.

Apart from the symptoms you list, what makes you think you have gotten pregnant while taking the pill? Have you missed any?

I felt extremely tired and would feel faint and burn up when I tried to do my normal gym routine of a morning. I felt sickly a lot although wasn't sick, it felt like I was hungry. As mentioned above, I found my pants were tighter and my weight had never fluctuated before. I found out when i was 6 weeks and I had only been off my contraception for 7 weeks. Hope this helps xx

They were the same as my pre menstrual symptoms. I only knew for sure once I'd POAS.

Thanks for the replies ladies.
I am generally pretty good with my pill... I sometimes forget to take one, but then will always take the one I missed the next day as per the pill instructions. I know on the balance of probabilities I shouldn't be, but I know that pill failure is not impossible?

PS - I am also super bloated!

Small amount of implantation bleeding then nothing else until around 10 weeks when I got sore boobs and a tough of nausea/watery mouth

Period cramps, being in a bad mood, crying on the way home, wanting to kill everyone at work, feeling very hot, thinking my period was starting with the amount of 'wet' (eww)
