Feelings before you got a BFP

I am just wondering how you felt before you found out you were PG.

My first PG I had no clue. My second I seriously knew it worked the moment it work . My third (which is my only success) I didn't know anything until I almost fell asleep driving and then took a test.

Did anyone notice symptoms right away? (cramping, twitching)

Did you just "Know" without actually knowing?

1st, I thought it could be possible.
2nd, I knew the day after and told DH so. For the next 2 weeks, I had pregnancy symptoms, and DH said if I wasn't pg, I had a VERY active imagination.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

Thanks Neener1211 -

I am not planning for a PG (not till next year) but I extremely excited thinking that it could be true. I like how life can be mysterious

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I had very light spotting which I had assumed was implantation bleeding because I NEVER had spotting before, and I just knew that once I woke up the next morning and took that test, that it would be positive, and it was!

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I felt ok. No nausea. Not much of anything else.

DH on the other hand, felt my boobs - he felt great. They felt dense.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

1. Food that I loved (i.e. BACON), I couldn't even LOOK at without feeling sick.
3. The perfume I wore for years I was suddenly disgusted by and would gag when I would smell it
4. I would fall asleep every night for two weeks at 8:00 pm.
5. My boobs hurt sooooooo much. God forbid I would roll on my stomach accidentally while sleeping

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

Both times I did not feel pregnant at all.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I had cramping starting a week before my BFP. My boobs also started to hurt more then normal. I aslo had food aversions, that I have never had before. I remember the day before I got my BFP, I went out to lunch and ordered a chicken taco and a shrimp taco. I love shrimp tacos, but I wound up taking two bites, and I just couldn't eat it. Then the night before I tested, I started having crazy dreams, and I got up many times to pee, which I never do. That morning I woke up and just new I was PG.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

yes just got BFP, I really was up on it though because I had a MC in April this year ans we had started trying this month, so I was waiting and waiting for my BFP and praying.. It was actually on the 18th on my DH birthday! Nice present huh?

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I didn't have a clue...I had all symptoms of getting my period..headaches, cramping and I was really tired.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

i remember very clearly that a few days after we BD, i felt this incredible sense of calm... but i really didn't know what to attribute it to.

i had cramping from 6-9DPO, so i was positive that AF was coming.

at 9DPO i started to suspect something... my gums bled while i was brushing my teeth for the first time in my life, and i almost lost my lunch when i *thought* smelled baby formula.

when AF didn't arrive by 10DPO (i have very short cycles) i tested and there was my BFP!

ETA: i really didn't know what my "normal" pre-AF symptoms were supposed to be, other than sore nips, because i had only stopped taking birth control three months before getting PG.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

1st- no idea.
2nd- i was a POAS addict so i knew before symptoms could kick in.
3rd- mood swings- i just knew that it was more than PMS.

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

i just felt hopeful!

i waited 10 (ten!) days after my period was supposed to come before i even tested! i wanted to be 100% sure and even then i thought i might jinx it someway!

once i found out i thought, omg, is it really happeneing? to me? is it really my turn? and then...

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I am still as confused as 2 days ago. I still have mild cramping that is very consistent. It is 7 DPO and a good 9-10 days before AF. This short time of not knowing is so stressful. I don't know if I should be excited or realize maybe I should start trying because I want to be this excited .

I am ready to buy every test out there (but then again I may need the $$). Something is definitely going on in there. Maybe my cycle is wacked and I will get my AF any day, maybe.., maybe.., maybe...

-This is all a vent of my frustration for not knowing. I would love to sit back and just wait but I am high risk and would need extra Dr. attention the first trimester, so part of me feels worry.

Thanks!

Re: Feelings before you got a BFP

I knew b/c I started getting extremely nauseous at random times, like at a wake, and in the middle of eating, and i never get nauseous unless I am sick. Also, I would go from not hungry at all to soooooo hungry in like 2 seconds, which I still do.
