Did you have any symptoms before your BFP?

I'm TTC #2 now and a bit desperate to get pregnant! The first time, I knew I was pregnant because I had some twitching in my lower belly then lower back pain about a week before my expected period. Really hoping I'm going to get my BFP this month but so far at the same point, nothing. I know I probably sound a bit ridiculous but wondering if any of you got a BFP with absolutely no symptoms before the positive test?

Nope, no symptoms for my first or second (which are twins). I simply knew because my period was late. Both times I also didn't develop any symptoms until morning sickness started around 6 weeks. Hopefully it'll be the same for you this time and it is not ridiculous, I was looking for any signs I could find to know if I was pregnant before my BFP.

Yes but I didn’t think they were symptoms at the time, if that makes sense.

So during 2WW, probably from 10dpo onwards

Extreme bloating - kept joking I looked 6m pregnant
Really tired, falling asleep on sofa at around 8/9pm (normally awake until midnight)
Breakout around chin
Really hungry. Waking up with hunger pains

Nope, no symptoms until about 6 or 7 weeks apart from needing a wee more often. The months I swore I had sore breasts or a metallic taste in my mouth I had a BFN and in August I had no symptoms I got my BFP

The only symptom I had both times was excess saliva a couple of days before my period was due. For my first pregnancy that was pretty much the only symptom I had throughout the entire 9 months other than an expanding belly Grin hoping this one is as straight forward!

None at all! I didn’t have any symptoms until about 8 weeks.

LittleTiger007 · 27/12/2020 16:09

Yes, from about 9,10 dpo I suddenly craved oranges and coffee tasted bad for about a week. Fortunately my taste for coffee came back and I do allow myself a cup or two a day (19 weeks now).

It was my BF who thought I was pregnant because I was so emotional. Kept crying at just about everything and I'm not really a cryer..
We tested 3 days before my period was due and it popped up positive.

I’ve just found out I’m 10 weeks.

Spots on chin
Missed period
Sore boobs
Heartburn

The month I got my BFP was the month I had no symptoms at all, so my symptoms I normally spot, sore boobs etc.. must obviously be period ones.

seensome · 27/12/2020 22:01

Just got a bfp yesterday, I didn't think I had any symptoms as af a week late and is what made me test but thinking back in the last week I have been yawning/feeling more tired, white cm when I would normally get spotting a few days before af, soft lower tummy, sometimes they are mild not obvious symptoms.

My very first symptoms were feeling faint and woozy. I thought I was going to pass out a few times on the tube, I was actually worried I had covid. Then the sore boobs started and that’s when I realised I was probably pregnant.

Lilice · 27/12/2020 23:02

I had sore boobs, like before every period, but this time my boobs were painful more like underneath and on the sides.

Megan2018 · 27/12/2020 23:04

My only symptom was missed period, I didn’t get any symptoms until 8 weeks and even then barely anything.

PhylisPrice · 27/12/2020 23:05

Didn't have any symptoms but I just knew, I absolutely knew I was pregnant from around 3 weeks. Such a weird feeling! I could of confidently never taken a test and turned up for a scan and know there was a baby there.
