Since there are quite a few of us TTC and currently in the TWW I thought it may be helpful to hear what those of who you are already pregnant/have children experienced as symptoms before you officially got your BFP? Anything out of the ordinary, did it feel like normal PMS to you, etc.

I wrote about my symptoms here: http://www.mintedlife.com/2011/08/21/my-pregnancy-journey/

Nausea. With both of mine, I felt full-on morning sickness before I even got a BFP. With this new baby, I had my first day of nausea at 10 DPO (!) which is prompted me to test so early.
-
My breasts were super sore and I was exhausted. It felt like my life revolved around when I could take a nap.
-
Thanks ladies! Love using other people's experiences to symptom spot
-
mine was definitely ultra-sensitive nipples. even the shirt touching them hurt! never got like that for pms.
-
I had a chemical pg last month. I was SUPER tired at 7 and 8 dpo, had spotting and pretty strong cramping at 7...
-
Super tired and kept having weird cramps that felt like I was going to start early but I never did. I also could smell everything like a bloodhound.
-
At 8dpo, I had the gagging/coughing nausea but never threw up. My chest was also super sensitive and hurt like crazy when I hugged my friends. I was nauseous on and off that next week and on dpo 13, I ate a huge breakfast and almost threw it up about 8 times that day. That's the day I took my test.
-
My boobs were sooooo sore. I was extremely exhausted. And the funniest symptom that only went away after I gave birth was not being able to brush my teeth without gagging/throwing up. Oh and I almost forgot, I had the nose of a dog, I could smell EVERYTHING 24/7.
Froyo: I didn't know you were preggers, congrats!!

I mentioned this on another thread, but my big clue was more cramping that usual. I normally only got some mild cramps the day before my period lasting for 1-2 days and before I took my test, I had felt the same type of cramps a week earlier than normal and I noticed them for about nine days. I also had sore boobs and bloat. I was super nauseous for 1 day (I think the day I implanted), but didn't experience any more nausea until after my positive test.

my boobs were sooo sore!! i remember we were visiting our friends in boston at that time (april) and it was still pretty chilly so i kept thinking wow this windchill is really doing a number on my nipples. NOPE - it was the pregnancy... i just had no idea at the time!! i also felt a little bit nauseous and was always tired.
-
More than sore breasts, I had hot, heavy breasts. A friend had told me it was one of her first symptoms and as soon as I had them I though "Oh- that's it! That's what she meant!". I also had heartburn (not something that is usual for me) and was really jumpy if hubs touched my abdomen.
