Pregnancy symptoms the day after conception?

My husband and I had unprotected sex yesterday and today my breasts feel very swollen and sore. Of course sometimes they get swollen and sore during certain points in my cycle but I've also had some mild nausea today and slight cramping. I did do some research and found other forums where people have said they had symptoms as early as one day after conception.

As soon as an egg gets fertilized there are different things going on with your body than in a normal cycle. That's my theory as to why we feel symptoms so early. I know it was pg symptoms I felt on the third day. I NEVER get car sick, so what else could make me absolutely GREEN with sickness just driving a perfectly flat, open road? Also, there's no way it was just in my head because we had used protection and I just "knew" there was no possible way I was pregnant.

It's impoasible to get symptoms this early. It takes 12-48 hours for fertlisation and a firther 7-12 days for the embryo to implant.  Sounds like a coincidence or psychological symptoms to me. It's the hormones that are released by the fertlised embryo that give you symptoms and they wouldn't be strong enough to even give you a very very very faint positive test never mind symptoms.

They stopped hurting for about a week then two weeks ago I had a light period for about three days. After that it seems my breasts got swollen and hurting again and my nipples are a bit itchy. I think I should take a pregnancy test.

Wow it's crazy that they can come that soon. Like I said though, sometimes my breasts get swollen and sore and my stomach gets upset during certain times of my cycle (I'm thinking before ovulation maybe) so it could just be from that. Either way it's too early yet to take a test.

It takes a while for the hormones to build up strong enough to give you genuine pregnancy symptoms. You might get faux symptoms and not be pregnant or get them and be pregnant.  It just depends. Its mostly just down to good timing. But actual symptoms dont really show themselves until a while after youve conceived.

With my second pregnancy, (current) we had sex the night before... Woke up in the morning and instantly felt sick. We laughed it off saying was too early for a sign... But we were infact right..I'm now 19w1d and single but happy. Good luck x

Still getting negatives but I'm pretty sure I'm pregnant regardless. I got super nauseous and sensitive nipples 3 days after 'conception' too.
Been nauseous everyday since plus the sensitive smell! And actually loss of appetite or being full really fast

I remember being thirsty almost right away, and finding I was not that interested in food. I don't know that it was a day later, but it was probably the first week.

My first time I was really sick 3 days after conception,  but I figured it out months afterwards when I started putting the dates together. I had no clue at the time that I was pregnant so I may well have had symptoms even before the third day.
