Being STARVING! Six weeks. It was great, I went with it. Good luck OP.

None. I just knew I was pregnant.

Feeling constantly dizzy
Bloating
Ridiculous amount of saliva all day long

Remember sitting in a soft play and had a cheesy chip (my guilty pleasure) an felt funny. Knew straight away I was pregnant!

I was cooking mince and my stomach turned. All of a sudden I thought - oh hello ....

Weirdly both times I knew before the test, tender boobs both times but nothing particularly out of the ordinary pms type of tenderness but both times I just knew I should test. Odd because both times I got pregnant in months when I didn't think I would, we were trying but the first time it was a month where we'd had the in-laws staying over ovulation and had only had sex at all because we'd had a few drinks one night. Second time was in February we'd decided to stop trying until we knew how bad corona was going to get but had already had unprotected sex once...

After the test no symptoms for a few weeks, then tiredness kicks in and then I start throwing up which lasts a month or so. Still waiting for it to go away with this pregnancy. Envy

I’m a massive tea drinker and I couldn’t stomach it anymore and then when I was on a train and the smell of diesel and other peoples food was so intensified it made me feel ill. I did the test that night and it was positive

eyesbiggerthanstomach · 08/05/2020 23:55

Motion sickness in any car journey. This was before I took the test. The first time I felt it was the day after we had sex which doesn't make sense scientifically I think but it was definitely my first symptom and very early on.

Very stiff neck!

RingaRosie · 09/05/2020 08:43

Went to a gig & couldn’t even get a third way down my first pint...

LosingtheTTCplot · 09/05/2020 08:55

Stomach felt like I’d done 100 sit ups and vein on nipples was more pronounced. That’s it!

lockdownpregnancy · 09/05/2020 09:01

Sore boobs! I mean REALLY sore!!! As in I couldn't even touch them without wanting to cry they hurt that much!
I usually get sore boobs before my period anyway, but this was on another level. That's when I was thinking I needed to get a test!

MichelleOR84 · 09/05/2020 09:18

With all three of my pregnancies, no symptoms are my first symptoms .

Usually I get pms (bloating, cramping, break outs, sore boobs ) so when those don’t appear as my period is approaching I know .

Although with my current pregnancy I was still nursing and my nipples were super tender while he was latched on . I could only tell when he was nursing though and it never occurred to me that was a pregnancy symptom . I thought was he was being lazy with his latch πŸ˜† it was only later I realised it was a pregnancy symptom .

Agonising pendulous boobs with sore nipples!!!

Sibz20 · 09/05/2020 11:09

Lack of appetite, and going off chocolate!!!

craftydafty · 11/05/2020 14:56

Hey can anyone give me any advice please,
Thanks for your replies I've had a few of the symptoms you all said!
Today I'm one day late on period, just done a test and it's definitely negative, is there any chance I'm too early to test even though I'm late on? Thanks

Possibly. It depends on the HCG levels in your urine. Give it a couple of days and if your period hasn't arrived then test again with your first week when you get up in the morning

Popcat120 · 11/05/2020 15:19

Just feeling off, dizzy spells, headaches tiredness in the week lead up to my bfp.
I found out super early at 9dpo with both my DS and this pregnancy.

It's strange, but I just knew I felt different from about 4dpo!

MrsAmelia · 11/05/2020 19:21

I had a metallic taste in my mouth (like blood), super cold all the time, couldn’t bear the taste or thought of the taste of coffee, my cats would not leave me alone (sitting on my abdomen as if they were roasting an egg non-stop). 😁
