Hello,

About a week or two after ovulation I had a vivid nightmare and the last time I had a nightmare I was pregnant so I said to my husband oh I must be pregnant and we laughed it off...

I'm seven weeks pregnant on Saturday haha

What's your weirdest "I'm pregnant" thought?

Zoey92 · 03/06/2020 23:32

Oh and I'd have to say the dreams do get bizarre mind 😲 37+3 & good god the dreams are crazy!

Painful nipples.
Vomiting with no warning, especially when entering supermarkets and smelling the fruit and veg.

The first time, I had incredibly itchy boobs, like under the skin and no amount of scratching would get rid of it. That was about 3 weeks pregnant. Funnily enough, I didn’t have it the second time!

Kerrie86 · 03/06/2020 23:37

Started putting on weight almost right away, couldn't fit any of my trousers lol, just did a test not really believing I was pregnant, got a shock when I saw it was positive.

Weloveoptimus · 03/06/2020 23:38

I went off my morning coffee.
I LOVE coffee...and my breasts were tender.

Kerrie86 · 03/06/2020 23:41

Oh and I was actually getting reallt short of breath, I thought I had covid and got tested, was negative, spent 4 days in my room with room service from my husband watching films, was a great we break 😂 1 week later tested positive lol

First pregnancy (not planned) woke up one morning and I just looked pregnant. I was 18 with irregular periods and had missed two cycles so thought I must be around 12-14 weeks. Went for scan and turned out to be barely 6 weeks. Woke up next day with completely flat stomach btw, the bloat was unreal.

Second pregnancy found out at 7 weeks, first sign was not being able to eat my morning cornflakes. That was the one and only time I experienced morning sickness that pregnancy.

Third pregnancy, this time round i got into temping and charting, tracking ovulation while TTC. Just happened to be having a quiet evening when I had implantation pain, and I just knew. If it had been in the middle of the day I’m sure I would have missed it. As it was because I felt it, I tested stupidly early and got a positive. Felt like a really really long pregnancy though, especially since I suffered with morning sickness till around 21 weeks.

Pregnancy 4 not planned, was doing Keto diet and just felt sick, assumed it was the lack of carbs. Dp then remarked about how huge my boobs looked and I suddenly thought uhoh sure enough BFP. She’s 2 now.

The tiredness. I still dream about all the lovely sleep in the first few months of my first.

I remember being on a work conference call while working from home. I woke up face down on the couch as the call was wrapping up. Still thankful no one asked me anything.

lorisparkle · 03/06/2020 23:47

Wine tasting like vinegar was one of my early signs! As well as a just general feeling of being pregnant.

Stroller15 · 03/06/2020 23:50

My first sign was also the tiredness. I literally couldn't keep my eyes open for the majority of the day. My DH thought I had sleeping sickness after our holiday in Mozambique!

AwkwardPaws27 · 03/06/2020 23:51

I was hungover Blush the day after my birthday, thought it was a bit off as I had only had a few drinks. Thought I'd grab a MacDonalds to sort myself out, opened the door and almost threw up at the smell. Bought a pregnancy test instead of a cheeseburger!
Unfortunately that pregnancy didn't work out but fingers crossed for next time.

MrsH497 · 04/06/2020 00:03

First pregnancy (MC) tiredness and classic missed period
Second pregnancy (3 week old dd) tiredness and the most horrific metallic and general disgusting taste in my mouth. Did a test was the tiniest hint of a line (after work evening pee) did another the next day after work before we went to the gym and a much stronger positive thought sod it and did a digital not believing for a minute it would show anything and "pregnant 1-2 weeks" came up ☺️

CoolNoMore · 04/06/2020 00:17

Feeling absolutely normal. I track my periods and usually before they come everything feels very significant - tender boobs, bloating, feeling like something is really going on in there. Both times I was pregnant I only took a test because I had none of this and felt entirely normal! Weird.

MintyCedric · 04/06/2020 00:22

Couldn't stop peeing or falling asleep.

It was over Christmas...my mum guessed before I did the test!

gleegeek · 04/06/2020 00:26

Itchy boobs and went off tea!

ladybird69 · 04/06/2020 01:08

Horrible metallic taste in mouth and going off coffee.

EugenesAxe · 04/06/2020 01:24

Uncontrollable sudden urge to wee... about 10 days after ovulation. As we were trying I give up alcohol, even though we were on holiday.

Wheresthebiffer2 · 04/06/2020 01:30

metallic taste in mouth - even cleaning teeth didn't help.

Snufkins · 04/06/2020 01:49

Really boring, but a missed period. I was maybe 5 weeks gone, felt fine until that point and started getting symptoms a week or so later. DD 2 weeks old!

managedmis · 04/06/2020 01:49

Awful diarrhoea

Like, using the washroom on a train bad

AhBallix · 04/06/2020 01:51

I kept thinking I could smell garlic.

squeekums · 04/06/2020 01:52

The GP saying, well, you dont have a swollen liver, kidney or whatever
Your pregnant
I was 27 weeks and had NO idea

BeautyAndTheBump1 · 04/06/2020 06:29

I threw up on my wedding day (3w5d!)
The day after I had to leave a restaurant cos of 'the smell'
It made me take a test. Also had HG the entire pregnancy so it explains it really!

IndieRo · 04/06/2020 07:12

On my DD2 I craved fruity ice pops (fruit pastille ones) . As soon as I had her the craving went.I knew I was pregnant when DD2 was 18 months and I was getting my shopping one day and automatically bought the same ice pops. Rushed home to do a pregnancy test and it was positive.
