Just curious what you all noticed in the really early days. I felt spacey, sore boobs and had a metal taste in my mouth. And fancied the crap out of haribo cola bottles!

I had crampy stomach and sore lower back. Sore boobs and completely off food. Also broke out in spots and going to the toilet more often.

How far along are you now? I'm only 8 weeks.

Didn't even know I was pregnant at first! Only realised because I gained a load of weight, which was first symptom in previous pregnancy. Don't get regular periods because of PCOS.

Approx 7-12 weeks had a bit of nausea, tiredness and sore breasts then, only symptoms from then to now at 38wks is a big fat belly and a bit of backache!

Am currently about 4weeks!
Was convinced I was not going to get a bfp this month as had no symptoms. Except tender boobs which I get every month anyway! I guess I am a bit more tired than usual. But I have cut my caffeine right down!!!

Nauseus. So nauseus from so early! 😂

TMI bytcthe very 1st sign I've had in all my pregnancies was thrush Blush

Here's a totally random one - sneezing. All the time. I sneezed all day long for the entire 9 months. I only found out it was a thing by accident but it genuinely is a symptom. Pregnancy rhinitis. Obviously had the usual suspects too, sore boobs, weeing a lot etc

Sore boobs, exhaustion to the point i wanted to lie down on the pavement on my way home from work, nausea, increased travel sickness, super-smell with massive dislike of some smells, and really picky on my food (mostly I just want pasta or bread all the time!). But all for a good cause 😉

In each pregnancy one of the first symptoms was wine tasting like vinegar! I also had a 'pregnancy cold'. It was quite useful as I could explain the exhaustion and looking like crap on the 'cold' rather than the early stages of pregnancy.

Before I was even late (and way before we did the test) my husband and I joked about me being pregnant because I was obsessed with wasabi peas... I mean, literally obsessed - I ate it all day long, even bought a big 2kg batch off the internet.

Once we had a BFP, it was cramps, very much like pre-menstrual. That lasted until late 6w. Then it was boobs, sensitive, but not painful (certainly not as painful as they were some 5-6w later). Then came sleepiness - I would fall asleep as soon as I'd get home from work and sleep through the night. Finally, in week 8 the sickness hit.
