That a woman can tell she is going to conceive before she even bd's? I swear I knew with my last two pregnancies that I would get pregnant. I even told DH with my second if he wasn't ready he better do something to protect it, and I was so sure with my third that I tested two weeks later and felt validated more than suprised.
Lately I have been having some weird feelings that make me feel that again, something is going to happen. Which makes me wonder if I am just super sensitive to my body or what. I really want to wait until my third son is close to 3 before I decided on anymore kids, however sunday we had an oopsie which is really weird and unintenional. So now I am obsessing with thoughts and will wait two or three weeks to test just to be safe. As it is my AFs havent returned since I am nursing, and I would believe its hard to get pregnant while nursing except for the fact that I conceived my third son while nursing a boobaholic baby who felt at times like he was permanently attached to me.
Oh, I don't know...Maybe AF is close and thats what is making me feel off....its just so very surreal of a feeling and similar to my last two experiences before conceiving.
Maybe, I have way too much baby on the brain....

I don't believe it but I will be eagerly watching for an update!

I felt that for the first time this past cycle. I just knew I would conceive before I even got close to ovulation. Then after O I kept trying to convince myself that I didn't conceive because I was so confident that I did, I was worried I was setting myself up for disappointment.

I actually just posted something about this in my playroom (well, similar to this.. about feeling pregnant before implantation) here. (early pregnancy symptoms, I don't buy it.) It came to me because around 3 DPO I had this overwhelming feeling that I was pregnant, and have concluded that there is just no way on earth that I would have any way to tell, so it must be psychological. I'll tell you next week if I still hold this theory or if I end up getting a BFP.

With my 1st child I knew the very next day. Sounds crazy I know. I was young, 18, me and the boyfriend decided to get a hotel room ~ and well you all know what happened there. Later the next night I was sitting on my bedroom floor listening to music and writing down random thoughts - when I got this sudden weird feeling that the night before was my last night with him, I just had the sudden hunch he was cheating on me, and as I sat there the thought of 'how will I raise a baby on my own' came through my head. I tried not to think about it again, I had no reason to really think I was pregnant, and just 2 days later I found out he was cheating on me with my best friend. Then 10 weeks later I found out I was 12 weeks pregnant. (I was in denial about my thoughts, that's why I didn't find out sooner).

So 'knowing' you're pregnant at 3dpo is definitely not unheard of or crazy or anything like that.

Exactly what I was trying to say! hahaha

I wonder how many times we have those feelings though and nothing comes of it so we don't remember them?

Wow, glad to know I am not the only one with these thoughts or preminissions.

I think there is such a thing as womenly intuition. But I also believe in self fullfilling prophesy so IDK.

When I fell pregnant with DD, I looked back on the calender and realised we had DTD smack bang in the middle of my cycle. From then on I knew I would be pregnant. With DS I didn't have any overwhelming feeling I would be pregnant but I was pretty confident that it would be that cycle.

I think that there is something to be said for affirmations and intuition.
