Breast Tenderness and other symptoms

[Angie1116]

When they say your breasts will hurt during pregnancy what exactly does that mean.  Mine feel a bit tender but does it very on every person???  
When do all the major pregnancy symptoms fall in effect.  I feel a bit fatigue and im constantly having werid feelings in my stomatch and ive been so tired.  OH and i pee all the time...  But when do the other symptoms start kicking in so i noe when to expect them?

symptoms are different for everyone. Before I knew i was pregnant my nipples were extremely sore. Morning sickness for me kicked in around 6 weeks, full force! But everyone is different. Some women may never experience it and others will. It just depends. Do you know for sure you are pregnant yet?

[Angie1116]

Im not 100% for sure but i have a great feeling that i am.  Im going to take a pregnancy test in a couple of days.

[chantal21]

Yea, a test will be the only way to tell for sure! Good luck!

Hi Angie I'm kind of in the same boat. My breast became tender and swollen 5dpo, which now makes it 10 days consecutively including mild cramps during the first 7, but strangely enough the cramps stopped , but not the breast pain & swelling. I'm one day late and tested using an early HPT and turned out BFN. Although it was negative, I still feel like I'm pregnant. So I'm not quite sure if these are actual pregnancy symptoms I have or it's just PMS, but for so long hummm?
I've read on many sites that alot of pregnancy symptoms start approx. 2-3 weeks post ovulation, but then again they say it's different for all women. So who knows?? I'm just as confused as you are right now.

[Angie1116]

Yes its very confusing lol  Well ive had the frequent urination, my boobs are tender but they dont hurt and ive expierenced some cramping through the night and i feel so tired.  I guess the pregnancy test is the only way but some times the tests are not so accurate so if you test again and it comes out neg but you still feel prego then you should make a doctor appt. thats what i plan on doing.

I'll wait a few more days, but yes - if still no period, time for me to see the Doc. as well. Good Luck!

When the doc revealed I was indeed pregnant I yelled out 'i can't be, I havent got sore boobs'. They finally came full force at 6 weeks...they feel itchy..heavy..area around my nipples has gotten larger and darker and alot of vains. a bit sore if i poke one with a bit of force. but no morning sickness at all!!

Hi Angie,
Everybody's symptoms will differ in many ways, yet you could have the same as some too. I started getting the fatigue very early on. I am only on my 8th week but have been tired for 6 or 7, so that hit me early along with the sore breats. Yours will most likely get more tender with some time and they may get better for a while then tender again. It really just depends on your body. Remember to take your prenatal pills and if you are taking an OTC prenatal you will probably need a folic acid supplement to make sure your baby stays healthy. Good luck to you. I hope your pregnancy goes well.

I have had 5 ++++++ pregnancy tests, sore boobs (not TOOO painful), extremely tired, and some pretty intense lower back pain (not constant, off and on).  I had a miscarriage 3.5 years ago, and have been trying to get pregnant ever since.....even did one round of IVF last summer, that failed.  I think I am in denial.  But ++++ pregnancy tests are a good thing, right?  Yesterday was the beginning of week 5.  I need help being convinced!  I'm in total denial!

if you had 5 bfp....you are preggers!  Congrats....looks like your 3 years of work finally paid off.  Have a happy pregnancy!

[Poo924]

Thanks!  I just really can't believe it!  I just can't wait to make it to week 12!  Did anyone else have (had) lower back pain on and off early on in pregnancy?  I'm just paranoid b/c of my early miscarriage last time.  But, I guess I can't really panic unless there is red blood included.  Keep your fingers crossed for me girls....l've waited soo long and my husband and I want this to work out sooo bad!!
