When did you start seeing signs of pregnancy?

I am curious when you started seeing signs of pregnancy.

 

What were these signs and how quickly after you ovulated did they appear (fatigue, breast tenderness, nausea, etc)?

 

When did a test show a positive result for you? Has anyone seen a positive before they missed their period?

Was that before you even missed your period?

I started getting m/s, fatigue, and started noticing a difference in my breasts, at around 3 weeks, had a +HPT at around 4 weeks at the time I was supposed to be getting my period and the rest of the symptoms just fell into place.

I felt the tenderness before I missed my Period thats i how i knew, only because Im VERY regular and know i usually only hurt 1 week before my period and this was 2 weeks before my period.

When I got pregnant I did not feel any different really. I took a few of those "early results" tests that are supposed to work a few days before your period, but they kept showing up negative. Then a few days later, I missed my period, and only on the day of the missed period did it show a positive result which was later confirmed by a blood test.

 

My conclusion: It is highly possible that the early tests give false negatives. The HCG content may not be enough by then to show up. If at all possible wait until the morning you're supposed to get your period, to take the test.

Uh oh, that's kind of worrisome.

 

I normally never have any PMS symptoms.

 

I expect my period on Dec 9th, but the last 2 days, I had really bad cramping, but alas no period, my breasts increased in size, which usually doesn't happen for me, they are very tender and I am very fatigued.

 

I don't know if it's too early to take a test yet, because some tests promise 5days earlier than your period, but I was wondering if anyone took it earlier and it actually showed a positive.

 

I took plan B this month so maybe it's just the plan B

 

Hopefully it's just nature playing tricks on me .

I thought I had the flu about a week before I got my period. I did everything I wasn't supposed to, went to sauna's, took every medicine known to man, etc. My body was sore, I was congested, coughing, etc.

 

I didn't take a test until I was late by 5 days. Then typical morning sickness started almost immediately (throwing up, dizzy, tired, etc.).

 

I didn't have any of the typical early pregnancy signs.

My friend also was very sick when she found out she was pregnant.

 

That's why I am beginning to believe that my symptoms are just from taking plan B, one can only hope .

took plan B this month so maybe it's just the plan B-

 

im sure it is plan b....made me feel kinda pms 's more then usual.try to take a test in a few days......

 

good luck!

Rose, cramping is probably a good sign that your period is on it's way. Plan B is a high dose birth control pill, and aching breasts are a major side effect you can get from the hormones in birth control pills.

 

I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you!

The only symptoms I had were cramping. Other than that and the preg test, I had basically no symptoms until about 5.5 months along when my belly started to grow.
