Just wondering what everyone's pregnancy symptoms were or what made you think you were pregnant? & how far along were you when you found out?

Late period lol but was actively Ttc so that’s the first thing I looked out for. Months prior I drove myself mad symptom spotting

A really heightened sense of smell after about a week from embryo transfer. (IVF)
Walked through the door of Sainsbury's and could smell the fish counter all the way at the back.

With my first she was a surprise so a late period but with this one I knew I was pregnant before doing a test as i had the same massive increase in appetite I had in early pregnancy and tingly nipples x

Waking up hungry in the middle of the night.

I was 5 weeks when I found out. I had missed my period and tested when I was 2 days late. Before I knew for sure I was pregnant through testing, I knew something was different as my boobs were huge and very sore/tender, more so than usual PMS. I also had very mild cramping which I thought was AF on her way... it seems this was my uterus preparing for what's to come.

Those were my only early symptoms. Now at 7 weeks and I've still got sore, huge boobs, nausea that's worse in the evening (but is still present all day), a heightened sense of smell (with a lot making me feel ill) and the occasional headache.

Really mild period like cramps in the week before my period was due. Then slight boob tenderness.

I had a few really hot spells, and then random nausea and a really watery mouth in the few days before I tested.

I was around 8dpo when I got little faint lines and I would just cry constantly!! I didn’t stop until about 9 weeks pregnant!!

I also had nausea very early on.
