Pregnancy Symptoms

Hi, I'm new to this forum.
My husband and I have decided it's time and we are TTC. My last flow was November 23 and I figured that I should be ovulation about the 7th. (No tests or anything just counting). We did the deed four days straight (6,7,8,9).

Last night and the night before, (13-14) I had some nauseousness and diarrhea. I've been feeling really bloated and crampy as well as sore breast. I have also noticed more little bumps on my nipples and that they have enlarged a bit.

What do you think? Could I be pregnant. I bought some tests (First Response - test 4 days early). So I figure that I can test on Monday at the earliest. Has anyone had experience testing early? I know that I could get a false positive but I am eager to find out if we are expecting :)

Thanks for your advice :)

I tested 16 dpo.  Even when I tested 14 dpo it was negative, but I really knew I was so I tried again a few days later (today).

I know it is early to test but I am eager to find out.

As far as the symptoms go, I haven't had any more nauseousness since the one go around but my breasts have been soooo sore the last couple of days. And then I posted about the dogs as well, so they have been acting differently around me for the last couple of days.

Anyways I'm going to try tomorrow and then if nothing I'll keep trying :)

If you tested tomorrow that would be 10 days after Ovulation. That's really soon to be testing, but there are women who have gotten a positive at 8 days past Ovulation, so anything is possible! My husband & I are also ttc after a miscarriage (Nov 22nd) I was Ovulating on Dec 10th and we did the deed Dec 7, 9, 11 & 12th so I'm going to also test 10 days after Ovualtion. (I also use first response) I'm hoping for a positive too even though it's soo soon! So good luck to you, keep us posted!
As far as the symptoms...I feel like it's too early for you to be feeling all that? I know everyone is different, but if you just conceived 7-9 days ago thats kind of soon to be feeling that stuff, but than again maybe your hormones are super strong right now! Good Luck, lots of baby dust to you!

Do you have children already?  I remember telling the grandparents with my son.  A new development since the last time I posted.  My breasts are now leaking!!!!  I stopped breastfeeding my son at October 20th so there hasn't been any milk for about a month and half.  This is really weird to me.  If I am not pregnant I will see a doctor, but they tingle like when your milk comes it.  It is so weird.  I wish you luck tomorrow with your test.  Let me know how it goes.  I will test again on Wed. if I don't get AF.

This is our first month of trying as well, we are super excited so I'm hoping all these symptoms are not just in my head. (And the fact that we could tell grandparents at Christmas :)

I know that the visual symptoms are not in my head (regarding my nipples) but husband definitely agrees that they are larger.

I will test on Monday, and then if it doesn't come up positive (cross my fingers that it does) I will test again on Wednesday etc. I am super positive though, the cramping and feelings I've been getting in my abdomen aren't normal for me.

I will keep you all posted and good luck with trying the test again!

My period was the 23rd too.  I have about a 27 day cycle and the CM on the 3rd was right for ovulation even though the calulations said the 6th.  I should have my period on the 19th.  I have a 19 month old and have all the pregnancy systems I remember with him.  I tested really early with him and got a postive at least 5 days before, but I tested this morning and nothing.  I just want to pee on one of those sticks everytime!!!!  From what I understand you should have a 60% chance of showing a positive sign (assuming you are pregnant) at 4 days before.  Which for me would be tomorrow.  It goes up from there to 80% at 3 days, and 90% at days 2 and 1.  This is with the first response tests.  From reading the other postings I decided to try some dollar store ones for this month and see how they work.  At least I won't feel so bad throwing them all away.  This is our first month of trying, how about you?
