How did you know you were pregnant?

[AuntieMaggie]

I was going to name change but I can't be bothered.

I want to know what your first symptoms were when you got pregnant, the little things that made you suspect. Or even the things you couldn't explain but made sense later.

I'm asking because I have a couple of things going on that I'm a bit embarrassed about. If I am pregnant it will be a miracle but part of me will be disappointed if I'm not!

With my 1st i had no symptoms at all . My second HG from the minute I concieved ! My 3rd , tingling boobs , extreme tiredness and going off wine , and smells turning my stomach and nausea , very hormonal !

With me it was like my nipps were being pinched constantly , a FOUL temper , smoking made me sick, crave olives bacon and cheese and couldnt stand the smell of my dog 34 weeks now and the dogs ok lol and i have given up smoking ;]

Ok I stopped taking my pills a month ago... My breast has gotten bigger, darker,im craving food all the time and I'm always tired.. But I took a test and it said negative.. My period was 4 days late... Do u think it was breakthrough bleeding cause it only lasted 2 and half days or was it my period? Could I be pregnant? When should I take another test?

Apart from symptoms very similar to pmt, the main thing that made me buy a test was my nipples felt so weird and sensitive. Standing in the chilled section in Sainsbury almost made me cry because they hurt so much!

I got my bfp on Friday morning so can tell you exactly what mine are!

I had a big fat suspicion (but didn't want to get my hopes up) because,
One nipple was very itchy
I had indigestion at the back of my throat (only my throat - v odd)
Pulling sensation in pelvic area
On off headache
Drinking/peeing for Britain
Sleepy but when i went to bed at night i simply couldn't nod off
I didn't spot at all when normally I spot three days before period is due
Food tasted AMAZING and I was ravenously hungry every two hours but got full very quickly.

It's so weird! They also came and went a lot so I felt normal for a good half of every day.
