Hi beautiful mommies! To anyone who has ever gotten that beautiful BFP before:

What was your very first symptom...something that shouted "hmmm that's different?"

I haven't had a pregnancy that's stuck yet, but both times I got my BFP, it was the heartburn that made me think. That and being tired, and my insomnia pretty much going away. Hahaha But man, that heartburn killed me. I never have it otherwise, so it's my tell tale symptom!

I was so bloated! I kept thinking "Either I am pregnant or I need to go on a diet".

Also, I was so tired. i felt like I was coming down with something.

All this was at 4 weeks pregnant (2 weeks gestation).

Last time: changing tastes (ie liking foods that I didn't like before). That was at about 7 DPO. That made me say hmmm. Then at around 12 DPO I had these stretching/pulling sensations in my pelvic area that I had never felt before.

This time, it was bloating...I don't usually have much during my 2WW. Also food aversions/sensitivity to smells. That was around 7DPO. But I was just writing those off, really. I didn't really think it was possible until my temps stayed up and I did not start spotting when I expected to.

With DS- it was taste of food, my favorite soup is loaded potato from ol'charlys and I got it and it tasted like sour milk. So I decieded to wait a couple days and test. Sure enough I was pg.

With DD- I was already over weight ( haven't lost all my weight from DS) and my size 8 jeans would no longer button and my bbs were so sensitive.

The first time around, it was my first cycle taking progesterone, so I just wrote everything off to taking the progesterone. At 9DPO I had a temp dive and IB, which got me all excited and freaking out in the bathroom. Had a BFP 3 days later

My last pregnancy, I had every symptom in the book. The "aha!" moment though, was when I developed a yeast infection at 8DPO (implantation). I always get them with hormonal changes!

it was different with all my pregnancies. with my most recent one, my breasts got SUPER huge and SUPER sore. (that doesn't happen to me with AF, so I knew something way up).

With my son, I got this random sciatic pain, a dizzyness/feeling like I was going to faint when I stood up and heartburn. It all started at about 7 DPO and I got a light positive at 8DPO, a BFP at 9 DPO with him.

With DD, I didn't have any symptoms, really. I just *knew* I was pregnant. We weren't TTC with her, though, so that could be why I didn't notice symptoms.

I guess my first symptom was like sharp pains in my boobs, unlike I had ever felt before. Then I had heartburn for no reason.

With ds breasts were so heavy and full feeling and painful nipples. I do usually get thus close to af but this was way worse and a lightbulb went off until recently I thought I got my bfp with him before af,knowing what I know now I think was like 17dpo

I didn't get any other symptoms until like 6wks

Thanks ladies! Haha that good old bloated feeling. I think the same exact thing every time I ovulate. I say to myself, "so this is what I would look like pregnant"

My first pregnancy I didnt have too many symptoms, just sore bb's, but not too bad, I had a mc at 8 weeks. With DD, my bb's hurt SOOOO bad, i worked in housekeeping at a hotel and often ran up/down the stairs, when i ran down just the bouncing was too much, and i couldnt hold a bundle of sheets to my chest like normal either. This seriously started like at conception, lol. With my 3rd pregnancy, the first thing was a sneezed and braced myself like it was gonna hurt my lower belly, like ligament pains, and it did, and i was like, "well that was weird, i havent braced to sneeze since I was pg", but i was on the mini pill, and having 16 day cycles, so there was no way I could be pregnant! Then I noticed my bb's felt really fulll but I was still nursing DD, so i was used to that, until i realized thaat they still felt full after nursing, lol. That ended in an ectopic pregnancy

Both times I was dog tired and felt like I had the flu. I was 6 and 8 weeks when I found out though.

I have never been pregnant while ttc, I have had numerous chemicals while ttc but if course the symptoms are just the 2ww ones.

With DD around 7dpo I just started to feel so tired, I felt like I needed a nap at lunch time and was asleep very early at night. I felt slightly nauseaus and food tasted terrible. I would get dizzy when I stood up . 12dpo I got my BFP

Also with both DD and my loss, I got a stuffy nose and felt like I was getting a cold.

Last time it was pretty much nothing- a lack of any period symptoms, plus I think maybe heightened smell.

This time it was possibly diarrhea which might have been unrelated, total witchiness, and mostly a big temp spike at the right time on my chart. I still don't have many symptoms.

Omg that's just reminded me. My last pregnancy I remember feeling really sore boobs under my arms.. I felt for lumps as they get sore but not like that. I just thought af was due. They never get that sore so yeah.... different boob pain than normal.
