Did you know you were pregnant before you did a test?

I've conceived twice and both times I knew from day one. It's really weird, but during the first week when I'm pregnant I get dreams telling me in no uncertain terms that I'm pregnant. Anyone else know by instinct that they were PG?

with b i didn't know untill iwas about 15 weeks.my brother and husband were sent to iraq days after the war started and iwas very busy at work.being stuoid thought stres had stopped periods but no it was b he was unplanned for. 2 years later we tried for number 2 and i knew within days although tests didn't confirm for 4 weeks.!!!

In fact, with DS we were ttc and the day we conceived I knew that we needed to had sex that day (jumped on poor DH who had a headache ).

DD was unplanned, but as soon as we had sex I knew.

with first one (dd)I knew the next morning I got out of bed and told dh I was pregnant and a week later told him it was a girl. Just had a really strong feling but with my current pregnancy I didnt even think I might be pregnant till about 2 weeks, however I do have a strong feeling that its a boy this time

yep knew from day one....in fact with ds, we had been told dh had no sperm, so I waited for 2 weeks before doing test, because couldn't quite believe that doctors could have gotten that wrong even though I was sure I was pregnant.

The whole missing period thing caused me to wonder and therefore do a test but I was convinced I wasn't, especially as I was having period like cramps and felt bloated. I felt exactly like my period was coming. So..no.

With my son I didn't know. In fact it only occured to me one day that I hadn't had a period and thought I should have done, so bought a test and I was. This time round I knew before I did the test, but then I think I was more aware of the first signs of pregnancy this time. I nearly didn't even bother doing the test as was that sure I was, but then thought I'd better check!!

I knew that I had conceived right after we had sex with my first child, it was the weirdest thing, I got up to make tea, and was standing in the kitchen and this feeling just hit me, the odd thing was that we weren't trying or planning a baby, but were very happy to find out that my feelings were right.
