I had period like cramps a week before my period should have came. I usually cramped the day before my period. I was really tired. My nipples were so sore. My breasts were too but mostly just my nipples. I missed my period but about three days before that I thought I caught the flu cause I was so sick. I had morning sickness up until 14 weeks then about one sick day a week from then until about 19 weeks!!

Mine was really bad nausea and vomitting.It would start early in the morning and last all day.Just the smell of certain things would make me gag or even vomit.I thought it was signs of my period bc this would happen sometimes before my period so I tried not to pay it attention.Then I thought it was a virus bc it started happening too often so o went to the ER where I found put I was pregnant.Good luck :)

Mine for both of my pregnancies was dizziness before I even tested. It's the very first sign for both. Very odd. Also the sharp stabbing pains in the breasts/underarms!

I thought I had caught my sisters cold- very stuffy nose. Then my hips were extremely achy, they felt the same as after I ran a half marathon, but I had not run in 2 weeks LOL. I also had sore breasts, but that's normal prior to starting my period. This was all about 10 days after conceiving. I knew 1 week later I was prego as I have excruciating painful periods associated with ovarian cysts- but the pain nor period never came! Tested... BFP!!

Mine for my son who is almost 2 years old now, was the fact that I kept getting cramps like I was gonna start my period and I had alot of wetness down there which would make me think I started, so id go to the bathroom and look but it wasnt blood... and of course I was a week late at the time.. and weird as it sounds.. I told my friends a week before that, that I thought I was pregnant cause I had been having a dreams every night for 2 weeks straight that I was pregnant... sure enough found Out the next day after the million trips to the bathroom to check if I started, that I was indeed pregnant after 3 HPT that day!

Really odd cramps, like a pulling sensation in my abdomen I've never felt before. Had them for a full week before I missed my period and tested positive.
