I'm Currently Feeling: | Did you know you were pregnant before you tested? I never 'felt' it in my last two pregnancies but I swear this time I've felt different. I found out I was pregnant when I was 4+1 but when I was 3+5 I came over all funny early in the morning. I had uncontrolable shakes even though I wasn't cold and then I had a horrendous cramp that lasted about 30 seconds and after it had gone I felt really sick. I went to work that morning and still felt rough. I had a cup of tea and it immediately felt like it was going to re-visit me. Although I didn't test for a few days afterwards I went and got a test that morning.
Did you have any signs that made you test? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I didn't know I was pregnant because it wasn't on my mind but I did feel different before my af was due. I was very dizzy and tired all the time for about 4 days before my missed AF but I put it down to too much work. I only tested because I'd normally have bad cramps the day AF happens and the day it was due my cramps were only mild. I had a spare test in the house and thought I'd do it, expecting it to be negative and AF to be a day or 2 late. It turned a very definate positive though and I nearly fell in the loo. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I thought I was pregnant before I tested, but didn't want to get my hopes up so tried to convince myself I was wrong |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Well I wouldnīt have betted a months wages on it, but yes I had an inkling that I could be pregnant. I felt different, and it felt like I had a band around my abdomen and lower back with a light pulling sensation - def not the kind of cramps I get with my AF. I was very tired, even though I was getting enough sleep and then when a change of plan at work meant that I had to rearrange plans in my private life - and I nearly broke down in tears over it - I knew something was up. I donīt normally cry over little things like that and a change of plan at work affecting my private life was nothing new for me - I used to work as an Air Hostess, and changes in my shift plan were par for the course! | | | | Status: Offline

Mommy was right ! LOL |
