When I got pregnant last time I was charting my symptoms for three months. When I ovulate I get sore nipples and this time, the tenderness stayed in the nipples and then the whole bbs were sore by the time I poas at 12dpo.

I got morning sickness for 9 months straight when I was preg. with dd, I could hardly keep anything down! I was also working 14 hours shifts without breaks so I was extra tired....Dr. said it was why dd was so small when she was born (5lbs. 13 oz.). I wish I hadn't gotten any morning sickness... :P

I never got morning sickness either :D Thank GOD! My poor sister couldn't even function the first trimester due to hers. The funny thing is that before my m/c I had only taken a few HPT's ever b/c I just knew when I was pregnant. Now that I'm trying I have taken a million tests...LOL I'm waiting for that feeling again, but since I'm over analyzing everything I just don't know.

they say with twins its worse. maybe if there was one baby i wouldn't have got it. my mum said she never got it with my twin brothers or with me.

I was going to ask you today when your Morning sickness started. I was so sick yesterday from the medication the dr gave me... it doesnt sit too good. I was still sick last night even though i took the meds at around 8.30am. anyways im still feeling a little sick today and cant imagine it is still the meds.

GMB- I agree with Dani about the symptoms being the same as a BFP and BFN. until the morning sickness sets in. also as time went on my bbs got more painful. I haven't had sore bbs after O since the m/c. that was normal for me to hurt from O to AF. i worked my chest at the gym the other day and haven't been able to tell if its been hormones or the weight training making them sore but just now i noticed that the muscle pain form weight training has gone and when i push my bbs they are tender. I cant test until Christmas day... maybe ill get the best Christmas gift ever!!!!!

I notice the same thing as mikaleen. I have weird sleeping patterns too, except it's when I'm pregnant. No matter how tired I am in the middle of the day I will be waking up super early or even in the middle of the night wide awake. I always joke that it's God's way of getting me ready for a newborn :D Other than that I have never tracked my symptoms so much until after my m/c.

Everything for me is the same, bfp or bfn, except that my biggest sign I might get a BFP is that for a few days before testing I can NOT stay awake in the afternoon no matter how well I sleep the night before.  My sleeping pattern changes drastically.  When I'm pregnant I have to take a nap at 3 pm and I'm still in bed by 10.  Usually I have insomnia and can't get to sleep before 2 am even if I am up super early.

YES!  I had tracked my symptoms on a calender since April.  I noticed that the basic symptoms are always the same no matter what, like dizzy, ovaries, bbs sore...I started to take those as they are always going to be there since after ovulation you are always going to be producing progesterone...the only diff. for when you are preg is that it goes up like 10%, but that does not mean that each month that progesterone level doesn't vary, so those symptoms are really hard to tell.  The ONLY thing different I had this time was I was reading your post about implantaion and I realized that the O pain I was feeling may have been that.  The other different symptom i had this time was i was really thirsty. I should get my calender out and see if there were any different ones.  Oh, my legs were achey, which is weird for me, and they are super achey now.  But I really had to rule out the basic symptoms as they are always there.  So I totally think if you are paying attention to the main preg symptoms you may be missing the little other ones that are giving you an indication.  That being said, there are many women who track their symptoms each month and don't notice a difference and get a BFP.  Remember I gave up on that last tww since I just  "didn't feel it" So DONT GIVE UP! :)
