How early did u suspect pregnancy?

shoneshine · 18/03/2010 10:22

We have just started ttc no4! I really should know the signs by now but how early did u think u were pregnant and what signs did you have? I am only 4DPO or what I thought was Ov (day 13 of 28 days) had all the ov signs. I have had a constant feeling of pressure on my baldder, low in my tummy (no burning tho so not a UTI) Also been yawning alot earlier in the day than normal, trying not to get my hopes up!DD1 and DS2 were concieved at 1st attempt so heres hoping!Xx

Never really suspected with the first four pregnancies until period was late (no pulling the wool over my eyes then )

My fifth pregnancy I suspected just before time period was due as had been 'spotting'. Though didn't do a test until a few days after period was due.

I know there are loads of people who know long before period is due but I am just rubbish at analysing anything!!

Good luck, hope you get your bfp soon.

dd1/2 not planned & don't remember anything other than missing periods.

dc3 planned and pre-period I had an awful taste in my mouth continuously

About 6 weeks so period will have been couple of weeks late when I figured out why.

Sarahlou8 · 18/03/2010 10:42

About 3 days before I was due, I 'felt' different. No symptoms as such, just 'felt' it which probably makes no sense at all, except I was proved right when I had a positive test that very morning, which I took to stop myself from 'being silly'!!
We'd been trying 3 months and I hadn't felt this way the previous 2.
I also had some red spotting the day after I tested (2 days before due) which panicked me, but apparently this was implantation.
Good luck!

i suspected 2 days before i was due on coz my boobs were really sore but preg test came up neg. did another one day after i was due and it was postive...am now 21 weeks!!

I knew the week my AF was due and my boobs were sore. That was it really- the total absence of AF and -pre-AF symptoms did it for me. Also, your brain must know musn't it?!

(planned pregnancy)
The week my period was due I was exhausted, grumpy, thirsty, needing to pee twice a night and my breasts were unbearably tender. I knew something was up.

It's ok though, cos that stage only lasted about ten weeks.

You're not going to believe this, but I knew with DD2 about 36/48 hours after conception that something was up - we were on holiday and I suddenly couldn't touch coffee or alcohol and felt enormously sick and tired. I guessed what it was because the symptoms were similar to DD1 (although I had suspected a virus that time). It was very frustrating doing a test way before my period was due and of course getting a BFN, when I knew I was actually pregnant. It just felt so different to anything else I'd ever experienced.

I had no idea and didn't believe the pregnancy test results. No symptoms whatsoever until about 6/7 weeks in. I only did a test because I was obsessed with the idea of getting pregnant and so I did one the day my period was due, thinking 'what a waste of a CB digital, and they're so expensive too - hope DH doesn't find out'.

NB I have had a UTI without a burning sensation.

Threelittleducks · 18/03/2010 13:16

For some funny reason for my 1st one I just knew. I wasn't even able to take a test and I knew.

For my second, I kept thinking I knew for about 5 months before I actually was - I don't know why. Took a test last month very quickly just to satisfy wht I thought was just a stupid urge to P on a stick and nearly dies when it came back positive. Thought I was just being crazy again - wasn't even going to tell hubby I had P'd on a stick!

KatnKankles · 18/03/2010 13:27

The first 3 times I cant remember.

This time, I was on holiday and about 9/10 dpo, the last couple of days of the hols, I started feeling uncomfortable lying on my stomach sunbathing (boobs) and thought 'oooh'. Plus I had indigestion after eating which is unusual.

Flying home I felt a little sick so did a test when I got home on a FR which was a little skinny positive. I'm now 32 weeks
