1st time: cried instead of laughed at a joke & couldn't wear contact lenses
2nd time: drove into back of another car at a roundabout
3rd time: bit of spotting, bit of being a bit batgty

LOL

I'm amazed....so many different signs...

I had nothing....nada....zip

Even after I found out no morning sickness.....no boob changes...maybe a bit fuller towards the end..no headaches...tiredness. Nothing.

But somehow I just laid there one night and I wondered why my period hadn't come after a missed M/C and suddeny it dawned on me I was pregnant..

Wierd.

Now I'm TTC and if I'm even a day late I'm wasting money on tests.

Know what you mean about the aftershave/perfume intolerance, my MIL wears a perfume that when pg with ds I couldn't stand it made me want to be instantly sick. She'd cuddle dd and the perfume would transfer to her, she would come back reeking of it and I had to bath her with loads of suds asap.

Got so bad dp had to say something, I cringe now about the thought of him trying to tell her - how awful, I felt so bad! It was horrid though, AND it's called 'Intimate'- Hahaha!!!

Nasty tinny taste in mouth that nothing would shift.

Kept making food and then giving it away to people because the smell of it cooking put me off it.

Felt absolutely knackered.

I thought I had flu for three weeks. Being sick, headache, fever and everything so the last thing on my mind was that I was pregnant. But when I didn't get any better for 3 weeks I had an idea but still wouldn't believe it until the doctor said so. Didn't realise you could be so ill whilst pregnant.

Practically as soon as the deed was done or the day after to be exact. Was flying to Scotland and suddenly thought "I'm pregnant" we had decided to stop trying and relax a but as well.

immediatley after deed done with me too! Just knew, felt a tingle and felt different. Bizarre.

to my shame with ds2 it wasnt until i was 22 wks (you'd think i'd know as he's my 4th) and with dd1 i was about 20 wks. I'd not put on any weight, not had the slightest morning sickness, i'd been bleeding altho not regularly so had not got a clue (with ds2 i was on the pill as well and had been for 5 yrs) with dd2 and ds1 i knew at about 6 wks.

At 3 weeks - metallic taste in mouth, dizziness, tender boobs and just a general feeling of strangeness. Despite that, the first pregnancy test at 4-5 weeks was negative. Pregnancy continued though!!!!

Preggars · 08/04/2005 09:48

At three weeks boobs felt different, and I had achey lower back, and also got metallic raspy taste in my mouht.
