Early signs of pregnancy

[Memumo]

Hi I'm currently trying to get pregnant for the first time. If I AM pregnant I will be less than 4 weeks pregnant- so I wondered

What pregnancy symptoms did you get (if any) under 4 weeks pregnant?

I don't yet know if I'm pregnant, but over the last two days my skin is itching constantly. Did anyone experiencing increased itching?

Symptoms linked to actual pregnancy can only happen once implantation has happened. I did experience that after though- mine has been mainly cramps and dry skin.

I didn't feel any different until about 6 weeks. Now I'm 8+1 and feel like I've had a permanent hangover for the last 2 weeks!

Before I tested first time, I threw up after a sip of wine - completely unlike me! This must have been a bit more after but before I noticed my period was late.

At 4 weeks I had nipple sensitivity and lower back ache like was about to get period...those were only symptoms apart from a period not arriving

I used to get the most horrendous PMS in the build up towards a period. I’ll get a week of cramping before the period actually arrives. When I was pregnant with DC1 that didn’t happen so I felt suspiciously fine so I took a test the day before AF was due. I also had a sore throat oddly.

Second time (ended in miscarriage) I just “knew” I was pregnant. It was a feeling. I usually can tell when I’m ovulating as I get a distinct pain. I think I had a sore throat that time too. I felt exhausted during what I think was implantation. I felt like my whole body chemistry had changed.

Third pregnancy I had a feeling that implantation had happened. I just felt so exhausted at what would have been implantation so similar to the one I lost.

With all 3 pregnancies I had cramping but the cramping was different to a period cramp. I didn’t get sickness until 6 weeks with 1st one, didn’t get any sickness with the one I lost and got sickness at about 5 weeks with the one I’m carrying now.

I didn't feel a thing till I was 8+4, then I woke up, threw up and stayed feeling nauseays (sp?) till 14 weeks when it subsided a bit (note: a bit).

I got my first faint bfp at 10dpo and I felt completely exhausted, and also had blocked nose/sinuses. I waited a week to test again, during that week had very mild nausea but convinced myself it was all in my head. Tested again at 17 dpo and got very definite, clear bfp.

I had cramping pains and lower back pain at 3 weeks, then towards the end of 3 weeks I woke up and felt sick every day for a few days in a row, eating a ginger biscuit would get rid of it though.

Just cramps and sore boobs, like really sore!!

1st pregnancy, I had perky, erect nipples for 2 days before I did a test on day AF due. Not painful or sore breasts at all, just erect nipples!

2nd pregnancy, I didn't get the perky nipples, but had constipation before bfp and nausea. Both these symptoms I didn't get till 7 weeks with the 1st pregnancy though!

It seems every pregnancy is different with differing symptoms. Majority of 'symptoms' could just be PMS though. Good luck x

I’d like to know as I’m petrified I am pregnant and period due in 5 days! With both my other pregnancies I knew I was at like 1 week post ovulation and I tested and I was pregnant.

Because I don’t want to be pregnant I’m currently ignoring - my sore nipples - the cramps in my pubic area - my lower back hurting - my dry skin - the slight nausea this morning - putting it all down to coming on soon!! The one thing that’s making me think I’m not pregnant is I always get smelly wee - in early pregnancy it’s really distinctive smell so I’m thinking I’m not

I felt strong implantation cramps on the Monday (day 19 of my cycle), then from Tuesday had terrible reflux, sleep disturbance and really weird dreams. On the Friday started to feel nauseous, and got a very clear positive on Friday evening on day 23 of my cycle! Ever since then have felt very sick, very tired and have difficulty sleeping. The feeling of a constant hangover about sums it up. Now only on day 36 of my pregnancy (5+1) and I'm wondering how on earth I'm going to make it to 12 weeks 🤢

I had no symptoms until I was 5 and a half weeks then my boobs started to get sore and I felt nauseous.

I am currently 4 weeks preg. I had an itch on my arm that came and went for a few days along with nipple sensitivity and lower back pain!

Sore boobs and dizzy spells. The dizzy spells were when I knew I was! It was so out of character for me
