I'm so curious. Was there anything besides POAS that gave it away before you POAS?
-
Nope. Nothing I could really attribute to a BFP.
-
First time, I had sore boobs for one day. This time, I had no symptoms.
-
Nope, no real symptoms that couldn't have been normal everyday symptoms.
-
My only symptom before my first BFP was the lack of PMS symptoms. I am typically a little more emotional a week before I start and I wasn't so that was how I had a sneaking suspicion. My second BFP gave me no symptoms either and I tested five days late because I thought it was impossible for me to be pregnant. Wrong.
-
Not really...my boobs were a little swollen this time around but not sore. That's about it.
-
Nothing. Nada.
-
None with either. DS I had sore breasts the day AF was due and with this baby I didn't experience any symptoms at all until 9 weeks or so (I didn't POAS until 6 weeks either, so really had no clue I was pregnant).
-
@anbanan15 @cherrybee @dandelion @mrshotdog @babyboeksmom @T.H.O.U. were any of you charting bbt? any interpretations on that?
-
Nope, I had no noticeable symptoms. I'd just had a negative the week before and don't even know why I decided to test. Didn't chart or anything though, our version of trying is most people's idea of NTNP.
-
nothing that didn't seem normal--I had weird cramps when I woke up in the morning for a few days the week before my bfp (around CD 19-22 ish which was probably around 6-9 dpo but I wasn't tracking bbt or opks), but I had gotten cramps like that the month before so I didn't let myself think it was anything. I felt worn out a few days before, but that also is normal for me around AF. And peeing frequently, but my bladder was small anyway. So I really didn't feel anything until after my bfp (I tested on CD 28), though then it was like sudden onset symptomville--I felt like I had the flu for the next couple days!
-
My main symptoms were implantation cramps and crazy dreams. DH thought I was nuts because I kept telling him I have to be pregnant because of my dreams.
-
Nope, I had no real symptoms whatsoever. I had some light cramping but I chalked that up to possible AF coming. I had no sore boobs, no bloating, no moodiness, no nothing. The morning of my bfp I had a really vivid dream that I took a test and it was positive!
-
No symptoms, I only tested because I realized I was a couple days late, and my period runs like clockwork. We also were not trying, so I wasn't looking for symptoms and watching out for any differences, so I'm sure that contributed to not having any symptoms.
-
No symptoms at all! We were charting, but my chart didn't look like anything special that month.
-
I didn't have any.
-
None, but it was sort of a tip off in itself because I usually had cramps/sore boobs before AF and the fact that I didn't made me think something was up
-
Yes! Severe heartburn that would wake me out of deep sleep, nausea, giant sore boobs and just generally feeling crPpy.
-
Nothing really. I think I willed myself to be tired, lol! I wasn't charting really seriously, but I knew roughly when things were going down. I didn't expect a BFP, TBH.
-
I had what felt like a cold, which is actually could have been, and was tired...but that could have been from the cold. BBT stayed constant; it didn't go up or down...only decided to test because i was 3 days late for AF
-
Nope. Little bit crampy but I thought I was getting AF.
-
*Bumping!* Because I'm crazy like that.
-
Not sure how I didn't see this one before but I had no symptoms whatsoever! I probably had more PG symptoms the two months that I was off BC before I got my BFP than my BFP month.
-
Nope. Both times missing my period was the first sign.
-
the month I got the positive was the month I had NO signs other than a gut feeling!
-
@MrsKoala: @sera_87: @sorrycharlie: Thank you all for possibly giving me some hope! I keep looking at my nipples to see if they're darker, if my boobs are bigger, if I'm peeing more, smelling stronger, tasting metallic... (Okay, not literally but ya know what I mean!). The fact that a lot of people have no signs makes me feel like I'm still in the game!
-
@LindsayInNY: I am never so aware of my body as I am in the TWW!
I really need to start tracking symptoms to see if they change month to month, or if I'm making myself crazy for no reason.
My only symptom was implantation bleeding.
-
I didn't have any typical symptoms. Just very vivid dreams and I was hot while sleeping. The only other time I remember those things were while pregnant. Sure enough I was.
-
Nothing with this pregnancy! I really thought I was out.
-
I had a sore throat, but that was it. I was charting at the time, but didn't get a triphastic pattern. Looking back, I might have had a tiny implantation dip, but I was REALLY surprised when I got my BFP.
-
For so many months, I felt every possible symptom during the TWW... but I wasn't pregnant. So frustrating!
When I finally got pregnant, the only symptom I noticed was night sweating for one or two nights accompanied by a tiny bit of nausea. I also had an odd, calm feeling... like I knew somewhere deep inside that I was finally pregnant. But I was so jaded by negative test results that I didn't let that thought cross my mind until after getting my BFP.
-
I was convinced my period was lagging due to stress, so I didn't POAS until I was about 2 weeks late. Looking back, I definitely had usual PMS symptoms, but some were a little amplified, like breast tenderness and fatigue. I also experienced a metallic taste in my mouth, which is what finally made me test.
-
My cycles have always been irregular but I knew something was different when I had this strange, metallic aftertaste to everything I are. So when I tested positive after POAS, I almost didn't believe it. I think I was just being cautiously optimistic (almost too cautious now looking back. The RE office that worked with me confirmed I was 7 weeks pregnant a week later.
