When did it feel "real" for you?

I guess since it is still so early for me (just found out a week ago today) and I don't have my first doctor's appt until this Monday, it doesn't really feel real yet for me. I haven't really had any pregnancy symptoms other than feeling a little "off". I wake up every morning wondering if it's real. To the point that I took another test this morning!! (and maybe the day before that also) I'm hoping it will seem more real once the doctor confirms, but I think more likely, not until I start feeling some symptoms or hear the heartbeat.

When did it become real for you?

I did the same thing as you...took a couple of tests...cause for some reason I thought the first 3 might be wrong. Chat Icon When I started to feel naseous all the time...it's pretty real...but I am sure will get more reall when I start showing..

I'm almost 12 weeks pg and if I didn't see my sonogram with their heartbeats and them wiggling, I still wouldn't believe it!

At about 16 weeks when I started feeling movement. But I wasn't throwing up everyday so that could be why it took so long Chat Icon

It feels a little more real when you tell more people.
But I am 9w, and it's definitely not too real yet.

20 plus weeks, but I had two miscarriages that made me very leary of this pregnancy.

Re: When did it feel "real" for you?

Haha- good question. It actually felt more real when i took the digital hpt. (I took the cheapy drugstore brand first and when I saw 2 lines, I went out and got the digital one.)
When it blinked "Pregnant" on the screen my smile was like a reflex and it definitely hit me harder actually seeing the word Pregnant than the first tests.

The all-day long nausea/puking and the first sonogram made it even more real!

17 1/2 weeks and it still doesn't seem that real...probably bc I haven't felt the baby move yet. When I hear that heartbeat it feels real, but I don't think it has TRULY hit me that I am going to be a mom in 5 months!Chat Icon

I'm 14 weeks and it still doesn't feel real yet. I guess when I truly start showing it will seem real.
