My 1st sign was very sore breasts around 4 days before my period was due. Positive test on day period was due. Breasts have been sore every day ever since and I'm almost 13 weeks now. Have had more symptoms since then but that was my only early symptom before I tested

My nipples became extremely sensitive straight away - it was an ivf pregnancy so it was very early stages, but the sensitivity was strong and almost immediate!
Good luck!!

I had short cycles. I used a First vue test on the day my period was due. The instructions say it can be used up to 4 days before AF is due. I had quite a few symptoms: mild cramping, lower backache, fatigue, my sense of smell was heightened. TMI: The one main sign of pregnancy for me was a white milky discharge.
FC for Sunday. Keep us posted.

Thanks all, really interesting to hear all your experiences. I have mild cramping, lower back ache and have been tired although nothing too extreme. Waiting feels like forever. X

Mine was crying because I passed a line of traffic that I thought was stationary but they were actually lining up to pull out of the junction!!

First sign was napping during the day which I never did beforehand..

Remember to use your first morning urine for the test. Fc.for you.

How did you get on OP?

Happymumma29 · 15/09/2019 15:38

Hi it was negative unfortunately, but it's a bit early to test and I've just found out I'd be better off with a first response rather than a clear blue digital, so I'll try again in a few days. It's just unusual for me to have mild cramping which is why I feel like I might be. Thanks for asking.

How many DPO are you?
Yes I believe pink dye tests are more reliable when testing early. When I got my BFP, I tested on the day my period was due (so around 14 DPO) with a first response, and got a good visible line, and even then it wasn't a raging obvious line. I also used a cheap pink dye test and had to squint to see it. So sometimes it is better off waiting as long as you can. Plus, in my experience, knowing earlier just means you have to wait longer for scans 😂 it's seems like a long wait until 12 weeks!

@Happymumma29 sorry your test was negative this morning. When is your AF due? There's still hope.

Missed period, bloated, sore boobs.

Happymumma29 · 15/09/2019 21:22

Hi, thank you - that's a good point about waiting for scans! Haha

My af is due on the 21st. I knew it was a bit hopeful to do one 6 days before but you hear stories about it being possible. I'll try again nearer the time. 😊

I felt a bit sick in the evenings for about an hour which didn't last long maybe like a week?! I tested a day after my period was due and got a BFP!
