I was super shocked. This time, I just knew well before I got a positive, and wasn't even remotely surprised when I got a positive test. I think my body has learned what it feels like, even when it's too early to have any definite symptoms that I could consciously notice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1364828 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:54:03 +0000 wonderstruck 1364828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Instead I convince myself that I'm pregnant every month. "I'm SO tired lately, do you remember how tired I was right before I found out I was pregnant?" "I feel kinda naseous today, remember how fast my naseau kicked in last time?" Stuff like that...I symptom spot constantly. I've gotten better about keeping it in my head since I'm sure it's super annoying! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1356114 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 09:57:22 +0000 Weagle 1356114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Based in several symptoms I had a strong feeling that I was preg, but after several months of BFNs I wouldn't let myself believe it. I was right! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1356033 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 09:35:10 +0000 Mamasig 1356033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I don't pay attention during the TWW. In hindsight, there were subtle symptoms, but nothing major that would make me think I was pregnant. My symptoms got bigger between 5-6 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1355986 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 09:21:49 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1355986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also have a slightly different experience.</p> <p>With Chloe, I knew something was up because I felt so off. I had similar symptoms when I had my chemicals, but as a result my RE put me on progesterone supplements.. and those come with a set of similar side effects as pregnancy.</p> <p>The first month I took progesterone I didn't experience any side effects and got my period a few days early. The second cycle on progesterone I had strong pregnancy symptoms but assumed it was a side effect of the medicine. I did get a + test that month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1355960 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 09:10:40 +0000 MamaBehr 1355960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a feeling I was pregnant with my daughter, and first pregnancy. With DS#2, and my third pregnancy, I was so convinced I wasn't pregnant I had a glass (or two) of wine the night I took the pregnancy test. I was floored that I got a BFP. So I couldn't perceive pregnancy symptoms at all after the first (though my symptoms normally show up around 5 or 6 weeks pregnant). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1355841 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 07:49:38 +0000 Mamaof2 1355841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My situation is a little different since with #1 we did IVF so I was looking/expecting symptoms</p> <p>With #2 I honestly thought I was just having a REAAALLLLYYYY long cycle - on day cd65 I finally tested and bam - bfp! Looking back I was like oh yeah, I had weird dreams and weird cravings! so for me the 2nd time around wasn't better </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-perceive-pregnancy-symptoms-better-the-second-time-around#post-1355684 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 23:58:11 +0000 Mrs. Sketchbook 1355684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I had LO I had been on BC for so long I couldn't tell what my body was up to, I couldn't even remember what a cramp felt like! Now I can tell when I O, but I don't know if I could tell if I were preg. </p>
