Early symptoms before missed period

[Bash1993]

Morning ☺️
just looking to see what other peoples experiences were… my period is due in 5 days. Usually before my period I get tired and feel bloated and that’s really it. However today I’m feeling tired, really sore boobs and (sorry for tmi) but super gassy 😂 has anyone else had these and been pregnant?
I done an early clearblue test yesterday - was negative !

hi
a lot of the symptoms of period are also symptoms of early pregnancy so it’s really hard to tell them apart! All my symptoms were exactly the same.

I didn't have any different symptoms the month I got BFP, was same as my usual PMS.

The symptoms are similar to pre-period but for me I would say ramped up a bit! 5 days might be a bit early but I have heard first thing in the morning is the best time to take one as the hormone levels in your wee will be higher

Thanks ladies! I just done another test (feel like I’m becoming a serial tester) and it looks like this, however might be faulty due to the line at the side which is too far along?

Literally nothing. No symptoms, felt a bit pre-menstrual like normal. Was convinced I wasn't pregnant.

Don't keep testing (especially in the afternoon), it's pointless, expensive and won't change the result. You either are pregnant, or you're not. Test on the day your period is due.

Hey @Bash1993,

About 9 days before my missed period I noticed my nipples felt sensitive, cramping more than usually PMS, and I had a 2 hour nap which made me think to take a test.

After trying for over a year, negative sperm results for my partner, and testing so early in my cycle I knew I was being daft... but it ended up being positive.

Best of luck to you ❤️
