Before The test was positive

Did ya'll have any pregnancy symptoms a few days before you could take a test?  I can't test until this weekend and thats with the 5 days before missed period test but i am bloated, back hurting, threw up a few times, amongst a few other symptoms. This my third baby if I am pregnant and I am questioning...

With my first I never even thought of being pregnant thought it would be impossible. So never thought it at all. I was a two pack a day smoker and a week  before I found out I just wanted to quit all of a sudden, my body was so sore I didn't know why my back just killed me, felt very tired and exhausted. Didn't have morning sickness.  I couldn't take it so I went the doctor told him everything he said have you missed your period was the first question he asked also if I could be pregnant  I said no its not till next Wednesday I didn't even miss it yet. So he told me to go back Monday when my original Dr was in for him to test for pregnancy.  And he called me back Tuesday it was positive.

I think its in peoples head about symptoms before. There's no way you can have symptoms before 5-6 wks its not possible. I know for me I convinced myself I had symptoms but always got negatives. Mainly bc I wanted.to be pregnant so bad I thought I felt symptoms. But in reality its just not possible before implantation at all. Which is typically a WK before you miss your period. I have my rn so I know. But people that disagree w.me probably just convinced their self that they felt real symptoms.

Mines weird but I always know I'm pregnant before I take the test if my sense of smell gets so strong! I remember sitting at my desk at work and a lady passing by and I felt like fainting and throwing up at such a strong scent. I feel like I turn into an animal because my sense of smell becomes sooooooo strong and that's how I know I'm preggo lol.

I never really experienced any symptoms until now at 23 weeks with heart burn and frequent urination. But before I took the test I felt that my body was off. Like I'm not sure how explain it, but I just felt weird.

I had missed my period and everything I ate gave me heartburn and made me burp a lot which is unusual for me. Took test discovered at 4 weeks I was pregnant.

I had breast tenderness, very fatigued but blamed it on me always being on the go, I had a strong sense of smell (for me is evident that im pregnant) and then I finally missed my period which is like clockwork

I had a feeling and other was only two days late on my period.  There was a few times before I thought I was but I for sure knee this time that I was pregnant I was extremely dizzy,  my stomach felt hard like I had been doing sit ups for days and my boobs hurt.  I also remember ordering a margarita the day before I took the test and thinking it didn't feel right to drink it for some reason even though at that point I had not taken the test yet.  It crazy how your body tells you and we have that motherly instinct.

I found out before my missed period.  My boobs really hurt and what really made me think that I was pregnant was that I had bought a venti caramel macchiato and couldnt finish it because it made me nauseous.  I mean who throws away starbucks so I knew something was up lol. When I told my hubby hr made me take a test that night. My last period was 4/4 and I got my positive 4/30 so I would have bern 3 almost 4 weeks pregnant.

I had side cramps 3 days straight, never before car sickness, and extreme exhaustion 2 weeks before I tested positive (which was 5 days before missed period). I also woke up two days before test thinking my breasts got bigger and thought nothing of it. Ha! Watch What to Expect When You're Expecting.

I found out when I was five weeks and really had no symptoms until the end of week six / beginning of week seven. I remember wishing I felt something to make it feel real and yeah.... definutely regretting that now :). I've had morning sickness (all day long) for the past two weeks now.

I know how you feel, I just knew I was pregnant pretty much from day 1.... I had just gotten off of bc, so we were trying but within 6 days of ovulating I started getting cramps and they lasted for 2 weeks straight, my nipples were really sore, and I was exhausted!!! I started testing with those 5 or 6 day before your period tests but all came back negative!!! I even got one done at the doctors office on the day my period was due but it was negative too....and then I finally got a very faint positive 3 Days after my period should have started!! I thought I was going crazy cuz it was so light but i tested again the next morning and then 2 days later and they kept getting darker!!! Trust your instincts, sometimes you can tell long before any test can!!!

I had nipple tenderness and was always exhausted before my missed my period. I took a test and it was negative. A couple weeks later I was 4 days late took another test thinking it was going to be negative again, but it was positive. Now I'm due in 2 days.

Like AML0212, I sensed I was pregnant because my breast looked bigger and I was more tired than usual. I tested a few days before my missed period.

I had no symptoms at all when I tested. I tested because I had some sort of intuition that I was pregnant. I found out at exactly 4 weeks. I had that feeling at least a week before I tested. I started getting symptoms at about 5 1/2 weeks.

I had my daughter and I instantly knew I was pregnant with her... This pregnancy I didn't find out until I was already 5 weeks along but I was experiencing extreme exhaustion right when I started back at work and I didn't think anything of it... Then I hated the smell of alcohol and bars so I took a test and it instantly had two lines ... Went to the doctor found out I was 5 weeks along... Had some alarms of miscarriage but now I'm in my 16th week and baby has been healthy :-)
