Why do they have to be so similar??
My boobs are sore and I had a few cramps last night. It is about 3 days before when AF is due, so it's likely that it's her... but I want it to be early pregnancy symptoms so bad.
 Sorry, just venting. Any suggestions on telling the difference?

I haven't found anyway to know the different. She is due for me today and I keep thinking she is here but there is still nothing. I am trying not to get my hopes up. I hope for you she stays away.

(((HUGS))) I hate that as well. It would be very nice if the symptoms were way different wouldn't it?

Ever since my loss in April, my body changed. Now I feel sick, cramping and have sore bb's from 0 to AF.... It is so confusing as I never had these symptoms before.
I hope AF stays away and you get a BFP!

Since af and pg symptoms are so different for everyone, its hard to tell the difference. For me, i get a tight feeling in my uterus along with mild cramps around 7dpo when im pregnant. I hope we all get sticky beans this month!

Ok this is the only weird feeling I get that is different from AF. When I shave down there (girly parts) I get this really weird "squrimy" feeling when I pass the razor over my pubic bone area all the way to half way to my belly button. Its like a weird hollow feeling, like something is there. I have had this with all three pregnancies this year.
I have never had it when Im not pregnant. And now Im starting to look it for it the last couple of months, just glad that I have not felt it and not be pregant, or else I would have nothing to hold on to....
Just POAS, THAT WILL BE THE BIGGEST KNOW ALL!

I POAS today (a few hours ago on a dollar store cheapie)... it was negative. I have tried calculating my "o" day and think it was 10 days ago (haven't been testing for ovulation because it puts so much pressure on DH). Anyway, should I see a positive on 10 dpo? Is there still a chance?

Many girls dont get a bfp (especially on IC's and dollar store tests) until 12-14dpo so you are not out yet!

Actually, I was just mentally recording it for myself the last two cycles - since we've been TTA! I was going to blog about it soon. For me, I know that sore boobs are definitely not a pregnancy symptom. Actually I'm not convinced full breasts are either. I have it whether or not I'm pregnant. Cramping isn't reliable either. I think I cramp more when I'm pregnant than I'm not.
Personally though, nausea, hunger, and burping are pregnancy - only symptoms for me. But the only way I've figured that out is being pregnant three times this year, and being TTA the cycles in between losses so I know I'm not pregnant. I suppose what you could do, is start tracking your symptoms each cycle and if you're not pregnant - you know those are classic AF symptoms!
BUT - I hope you ARE PREGNANT! And that you get your BFP soon and then you don't have to think anymore about what is or isn't a real sign! Baby dust to you!
