The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

Ok here is what I experienced with my first pregnancy

1.Severely needing a wee all the time, I literally thought I would p my pants on several occasions this was only 1 day late on my period aswell!

2. Smells made me feel sick mostly meat, bacon cooking made me want to vomit!

3. I went off food mainly mcdonalds and any kind of meaty junk food inc pizza, very odd!

4. Heavy feeling in uterus, the dragging sensation!

Bump!

I think it may be my turn. I got a faint this afternoon, so here's what I can tell you.

We actually thought we had missed the moment this month. I had been taking EPO which really helped CM. Out of the ordinary I got really horny and we were at it three nights in a row. So perhaps the raging hormones were a clue to the big O????

Pregnancy symptoms? The area under my nimples has been a bit achey. Af was due yesterday and I had a lot of cramping but it changed from windy cramp to almost UTI. What I did notice is it stayed in a tight ball around where my womb would be. Usually it starts like this and then the cramp speads down as far as my labia and then staining begins. So all yesterday I waited for the cramp to move down and it didn't.

Otherwise, all I cna say is I have no appetite but I'm still eating nonsense as I'm trying to entice myself.

bump - any one else receive a bfp and want to tell of their symptoms

I havent read the whole thread as it is already 85 pages long(!) but my symptoms with my first pregnancy was...

*very strong urine smell when I peed (lasted throughout my pregnancy)
*metallic taste in my mouth
*about 3 weeks after conception my breasts were painful

Before I got my my first symptoms were sore nipples, my breasts got larger, started peeing more fequently, and had lotiony CM every morning (I'm usually very dry after Ovulation)

MS just started yesterday at almost 7 weeks!!!

Did anyone feel like their nipples were gonna rip open? that is what mine feel like right now and I never usually have boob symptoms for period or anything.

I haven't read it all but thought I'd add my symptons in case it helps...

Mine was a surprise so I wasn't looking for symptons really. I definately got more once I found out just before 7 weeks.

Early ones (before I found out) were extreme triedness, so much so I thought something was seriously wrong with me, lots of crying and losing my temper, constant period like cramps that never quite got into the full blown thing, going off food and huge, hot and sore boobs.

I just my yesterday so only very newly pregnant but have been coming on here so much since my symptoms started that I thought I would post mine as this thread helped me so much.

This was our first month TTC and it was only half hearted really so massive surprise that I caught so easily. I have no chart or know my Ov date so will be fairly vague with timings.

The 2 things that really made me test was spotting (brown on tissue and 2 red bleeds in toilet) last week and gagging yesterday pm.

Other than that I have had symptoms but before the BFP didn't trust myself that they were symptoms IYKWIM..

Bad taste in mouth. Not metallic, but like a cold is coming - I thought it was...
Queasy feeling, but only seemed to happen when on here so thought it was excitement!
Bloating, but then I quite often have that anyway...
Some women say they just have a feeling and I think I actually did but because it was first month TTC I didn't know how to feel really. It just felt right. And I think that because I had the bleed it was concrete evidence really...

Things that noticeable I didn't have... sore boobs and CM, in fact pretty dry.

I hope this helps.

Am feeling brave enough to post here again now!

Unfortunately the above preganncy ended with in a few days of me writing that post.

BUT I am now 12 weeks pregnant! with this one I had virtually no symptoms. Even now I have really just had extreme tiredness.

Just wanted to write that even if you don't have symptoms, don't give up hope! It worked for me

Congrate Pooky!!! Good luck with the last two trimesters.
