The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

In keeping with Yaya's original suggestion, I am hoping that all those who have had a recent can post on this thread (meaning we don't have a bunch of individual threads but rather one big thread that folks in the 2ww can check out). Ex: "Ah, I see 3 out of 5 posters ate cream cakes..."

I'll go first cutting & pasting from my journal, but am really hoping that other folks can cut & paste their info onto this thread as well to have it all in one place.

So symptoms, aka "why did I test when my temps were generally lowish and had actually dropped a little that morning and also I had expressedly said that I wouldn't, ahem)

1. Just a "feeling" (yes, you may throw things at me now)
2. A little more CM than usual (though nothing like my first pg)
3. Nice full bbs (welcome back, ladies, how I have missed you)
4. Mid-day naps that could not be avoided: total body shut-down, awaking with pillow lines on face & drool on mattress (these came on much later in my first pg)
5. Two giant whiteheads on my chin (noticed CD11 after taking test & staring into mirror in disbelief)
6. Funny CP- sort of low but also anterior, or something, i.e. where I would usually be able to feel the opening I could only feel the tip (again, only noticed after testing)
7. Ridiculous mood swings (see post CD9 as example)

Other than that, truth be told I feel like I may get my period at any moment, which apart from being exactly what I felt last time, is also exactly what I feel this time of the month every month.

When I was pregnant the symptoms I had were.
1)Wasn't able to get drunk on my honeymoon just wasnt in the mood for alcohol and even when I drank I didn't get drunk
2) Extreme tiredness (I noticed it after HPT came back +)
3) metalic taste in my mouth

Congrats on ur just read ur other thread

wicked thread - thanks and congrats xx

The only symptons i got was sore boobs from the day of ovulation and i never get sore boobs,still had the achy feeling i was due on tho a few days before af was due,good luck every1 xx

With no.1 I had these symptoms:

1. Cuppa tea made me gag
2. Reading thru a menu in my fave restaurant I just could not find anything I fancied eating
3. Big gush of watery cm. Thought I'd peed my pants!
4. Boobs grew overnight
5. Two spots of brown blood I guess it was implantation spotting
6. Sugar craving - ate tonnes of chocolate but i don't normally
7. Completely lost my temper with best friend - shouted at her then burst into tears

The first week after ovulation I had metallic taste in mouth and a little bit of yellow discharge. The second week I didn't have any symptoms--except for being really, really cold...which I still am--with intermittent 1 minute long hot flashes!

Sounds odd but I had very, very dry lips. I have had to use tonnes of lipbalm, something I never use!!! Other than that the usual sore boobs, cramps, spotting, extreme tiredness.

This thread is great! I am now realizing that i am having some of the signs u ladies are having or had, that i just thought were none exsisting and didnt even no that they were real signs

With this pregnancy my early symptoms were slighly swollen boobies (kinda lumpy at the sides) went off alcohol (rare!), really bad wind, slight dizziness and idle-itus (cant be arsed to do anything!) xxx
