What were your early pregnancy symptoms?

[Marandakay]

Headache for 3 days (unusual for me) and erratic BBT's.

[mehta]

Sore breasts, lower abdominal cramping mainly on one side, constipation, moodiness, fatigue, loss of concentration

[princedavis]

I think the next morning. All day every day. I was anxious to be pregnant so I Was into smocks as soon as I Was two and a half months. In those days people smoked,that made me gag, I craved peaches and tomatoes and planter s penury. I cried once when my husband brought beer nuts and Spanish peanuts instead.

[stephg28]

I think headaches were my very first symptom. I don't normally get headaches and I was getting them every day around week 4 (didn't know I was pg yet). Also have flu like symptoms - achey, feverish but only in the evenings off and on. I've had less patience with my 2 year old. That started around week 4 too which made me suspect I was pg. Slowly my sense of smell has become more sensitive with a couple bouts of very mild queasiness. Light cramping and backaches early on but those seem to have subsided lately. I'm 6 weeks now and don't really feel like i have constant symptoms. Oh except for heartburn - that's pretty much an everyday thing now.

I am due on Aug 7.. My symptoms were sore breasts (which was very unusual for me), back pain (I was feeling like AF will come anytime), milk made me sick, feeling tired at times, always wanted to lie in the bed and above all had cramping for about 3 weeks. But feels so happy going through all this for our first lil one :hooray:

[rkaoo7]

Heightened sense of smell, mucus discharge and tender breasts and nausea.

[sweetie_pie]

I am 8 weeks with my first, I had a missed period, but I also felt like I was getting a cold. I had a really stuffy and runny nose at the same time. One nostril would run the other would be stuffy.. wierd. And my boobs hurt on the sides close to my armpits.. I also felt really exhuasted and my husband said I was having severe PMS and emotional about everything!

[AuGratin]

I tested positive on 10DPO, on CD 24 of 28. I have tested positive every day since, and am currently only 12 DPO, CD 26 of 28. My symptoms have been similar to AF symptoms: bloating, sore breasts, heartburn, burping, emotional; a few new/unusual symptoms I noticed starting 9 DPO were: really sore breasts (and usually my sore breasts start to go away about this point in a normal cycle - but instead they got worse), nipples getting darker each day, and gently tugging/pinching cramps on my right side. There have been a few other symptoms, but I'm not sure if they're pregnancy related or just me reading every little symptom into my positive results (increased saliva, creamy CM lasting long after O, pressure in my lower abdomen like I'm full or constipated, skin break out on my chin, heightened smelling abilities). I've heard that cravings can't start this early - but I'm wondering if my very recent love of original recipe KFC chicken skin (the crunchier, the better) and also black olives might be related to this.
We shall see! Praying for a H&H 9 months for me and all of you!

[mamabear2]

Mine was nose bleeds, very light and really bad lower back pain. Not to mention the urge to sleep all day.

[cdvdson83]

I feel like i'm having extreme symptoms sometimes!

I am so tired I could sleep my entire day away if I was allowed to, my breasts are killing me (I am about to invest in an entire woredrobe of tank tops with built in bras), nausea all day long, vomitting, implantation cramping, but im really not that hungry (probably because of the nausea), and I can smell everything! Changing the garbage out the other day made me gag!

I heard that women with pronounced symptoms should be concerned about multiples! Oh me Oh my!

[lisasun]

hello

[babypaden]

I am like clockwork with my menstrual cycle. I was 2 days late and had a feeling! I gained 2 lbs after recently losing 5 at the gym ... and my breasts are very tender and sore. They are already feeling larger!

[alexandranikki19]

I normally smoked 2 packs of cigs a day and they started to taste gross to me, could barely smoke. my boobs were sore. everything smelled gross. i couldnt "suck in" my belly. foods that normally were my fav i hated!

[NicoleGibson]

I tested positive on the pee test sense we were trying and I am 5 weeks and 1 day and I don't really feel preggers besides being tired. I miscarried last October so I am scared it will happen again...

[Volura]

My initial symptom was being super thirsty all the time. That was what made me decide to get a test. Then it progressed into being sleepy, sensitive breasts and nipples, and mild nausea. Mainly nausea, vomiting, and food aversions now.

[rachoochoo]

This time around I had a yeast infection at about 7 DPO. I wouldn't have thought anything of it but it was also a symptom for me last fall before I m/c. I was also very emotional and moody. I was charting and my temps were all over the place so I didn't think I could be but when AF didn't show I tested and found out I was pregnant.

[EvaElizabeth]

Sore breasts
Night Sweats
Metal taste in mouth
Gassy

[Dorcasdeer]

I felt out of sorts, feverish and very uncomfortable.

[a.dillard326]

i have had a lot of cramping but not painful...i heard they were stretching pains. My breast have been sore for about 5 wks and i am always hungry and sleep all the time :D NO MORNING SICKNESS THOUGH...YAY!!!!

[suzie21]

I feel like pee a lot and a lot of craming and feel uncomfortable also wanna sleep all day long....:(

[goofy23]

This is my second pregnancy and so far my symptoms are very similar to the first time:

implantation bleeding (8-9 dpo)
cramps
BLOATING
tiredness

[wannabmomof3]

I had extreme nausea one day and I am pretty sure that was the moment of conception. I never feel nauseous so this was a big thing for me. I was on/off nauseous and even dizzy. I was peeing a lot more than normal, and all of this was before 13dpo. Also, about a week or so before AF is due, my boobs get tender. This time they weren't. I had ewcm a while after o and then the creamy cm picked up. I still have that.

[familienstolz]

July cycle, was my 2nd cycle TTC - and I had a really painful period.

August cycle, went from TTC to NTNP to breaking up with my boyfriend and not trying at all - so I either conceived in July, or I ovulated early in August -- still not sure when I conceived or how far along I am, will hopefully find out this week.

But, in July I had tons of symptoms before I had "my period" - in August, before I got my BFP.. absolutely nothing aside from sore nipples and a bigger appetite.. and my period that never showed :)

[shanojash629]

I experienced serious bloating, was real tired, and had tender boobs! And I'm convinced my dog new - because he slept next to my side of the bed all night one night, right around the time of implantation (and he never ever does t<a href="http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/"><img src="http://tickers.baby-gaga.com/p/dev158pr___.png" alt="pregnancy due date" border="0" /></a>hat).

[Rae_1478]

The first was a cramp that just wasn't like one leading up to AF. Then that night I woke up to pee in the middle of the night (NEVER happens to me, no matter how much I drink before going to bed) so I tested positive that morning. I was also gassy, but so was DH so I didn't think anything of it. Now (1 week later), I am still very gassy (belching keeps nausea away, thankfully) and I feel that I am more and more tired and sleepy with each passing day. According to FF, I am 4 weeks, 4 days, but I think I might be slightly further along than that. Gut feeling is all though.

[Ocmarilyn]

5 weeks pregnant now...light cramps, sore breasts (beyond sore!), fatigue, pee 4-5 times a night, nausea around 4:00 everyday, back aches are killing me!, and occasional migraines...I pretty much have everything

[Miss Beth]

This is my first pregnancy, and my symptoms were cramping (felt like right before AF), sore boobs and I started waking up at night to pee.

[Angeleigh]

Hi ladies! First of all congrats on your bun =) I know im sort of off topic but I figured why not ask women who are pregnant. So here goes and plz bear with me...
Okay so I am 22 yrs old. I became pregnant once before in 2009 @ age 19 but I decided I wasnt ready and went through with the abortion =( Anyway fast forward to this present day; im not feeling my best. Im having pressure and soreness in my vaginal and rectum area (pelvic area I reckon.) Experiencing frequent urination and I feel constipated too. Not to mention im having cramps like I feel like im gonna start my period and I have already had it on the 9th-14. my "period" came 5 days early this month (which never happens) which started with a pink glob in the toilet the size of a half dollar coin; and shortly after led to bright blood for 4-5 days following, but it wasnt clotty (as my period normally clotty the first couple of day of af.) It never filled a whole tamp either, but maybe I was changing them too frequently. Anyway, about 3 days ago I had the most awful pain in my vagina & it led to the back of my thigh that lasted for about two days. The thing is that when I was preggo b4, I knew it before I tested and the only symptoms I experienced were sore bb's, frequent urination- and fatigue I need some answers. Has anyone experienced this and turned out to be preggo?
If one of you could plz take a sec to answer and thank u for taking the time to read <3 =)

[Angeleigh]

O I 4got to add that my 1st pregnancy, I missed my period and thats what made me go to the doc to confirm what I suspected... This time im not so sure. Btw all answers are welcome! Thanks! =)

[Chels22]

I get cramps, a little breast soreness, very tired and headaches no morning sickness

[Olivia2009]

tingly bbs, EXTREMELY irritable, and constant nausea especially after eating.

[EricaLevesque]

It's still up in the air how far along I am but we're somewhere in between 5 and 6 weeks. (U/S, blood work and LMP are indicating different things:headbang:) But so far I have:

~Peeing like crazy
~VERY sore and already growing BB's
~Last week i'd vomit just when brushing teeth but now the nausea/vomiting is on/off all day (never thought I'd be so happy to throw up)
~TIRED during the day and then wide awake at night
~And a silly symptom I've noticed is A LOT of excess saliva
~And of course... the fantastic emotional roller coaster ride:crazy:... seriously someone could tell me my eyes are blue (which they are) and I could cry or bite the person's head off. Oh, my poor hubby.

[jamie1094]

EXTREME fatigue, EXTREME boob soreness, famished all the time and ate like a horse, major craving for Ramen of all things!

That's SO funny to me that you would say Ramen!! I am about 4 weeks and today I left work and hour early for lunch because if I didn't get some chicken ramen noodles I was sure I would explode!! LOL

[chelseadee]

I got my BFP 5 days ago. The signs I had were:
Very crampy 2 dpo and increased CM the days after.
Extreme mood swings.
My breasts were not tender (usually they were right before I started my period).
I was hungry every 3 hours.
All around sick/nauseous feeling.
Then, my bfp :)
