What was YOUR first pregnancy symptom?

[KMac32]

I thought it would be kind of cool to find out what everyone experianced. What was your first symptoms of being pregnant?

[chantej23]

Mine was a change in sleeping at night. i could not sleep through the night and i was all always hot or cold when i went t to sleep. that was at about 4 weeks.

My 1st pregnancy was being deathly ill, went to ER twice cause couldn't keep even a drink of water down for over a week- the 2nd visit they figured out I was 7w 4d pregnant.

2nd pregnancy- period was late-mc a week later

3rd pregnancy was cramping and decided to test 10 days after IUI

I was actually sick with cold the last to times and was testing my bloodwork at job ad part of study for the new machine and hcg was one of them so true surprise for me

My first symptom was dizzyness and fatigue at about 3-4 weeks along. I kept wanting to take naps during the day and when I was awake all I could think about was sleep. And, I felt "off" and knew something was up. Sure enough I was preggo and now have 5 month old twin girls. Good luck!

I had pre period style cramps with sore breasts (normal for me before period) but I also had sore nipples (usually get this at ovulation).  When AF didn't show up after just over a week of cramping etc I got suspicious and tested.  The only symptoms I had were sore boobs, occaisional cramping and needing to pee, from about a couple of days before I should have started my period.

My first sign was that I was cramping really bad. It was painful and lasted for 3 days. I went to the dr to make sure everything was ok and found out I was 4 weeks pregnant.

period pains without bleeding at about 2/3 weeks which carried on past my period date, for both pregnancies

Mine was implantation .. When my period comes, it COMES. so i remember being in the kitchen doing dishes and i felt something come out so i went to the bathroom  thinking aghhh here it is. Well its a small amount kinda brown and thought this was weird since im very heavy the first moment af arrives :) so i yelled to my husband IM PREGNANT!!! i grabbed a pregbancy test and there it was positive. That was exactly at 4 weeks i was supposed to get af and i only got implantation spotting :) happiest day ever we were ttc so yeah!

1st pregnancy - nausea a few days before I expected my period (we were TTC).

2nd pregnancy (now) - extreme tiredness around the time my period was due (a surprise pregnancy)

The only thing I can remember from my past two (miscarriages) was a major back ache... which I am definately experiancing now. It's cool to see what everyone has experianced, thank you everyone!

I was only four days late for my period when i decided to take a pregnancy test. if i remember correctly i was a nervous wreck. mood swings like crazy. i thought that my emotions were going to be the death of me. i was really releived when i found out i was pregnant because i was ready to see a doctor for depression. i only took the test because i was late and i wanted to go to the tanning bed LOL! i knew that since i was late, that there might have been a bun in the oven and i didnt want to burn it in the tanning bed. needless to say, i never made it to the tanning bed.

With all three of my pregnancies (including my miscarriage) about a week after conception around the time I'm assuming the baby implanted I would all of a sudden get extrememly sick to my stomach and feel something similar to mini contractions. It would only happen one day during the tww and last maybe 30 minutes to an hour tops and then go away. Everytime after that I would get a positive test a week later.

[texasangel343]

One day before my missed period I had some uterine stretching if I stood up too fast.  In both of my last 2 pregnancies!

[snagglepuss1]

first sign for me with my last (cant remember the pregnancies before, has been a while! )each time was sore boobs, not just like af approaching sore, but dont touch them anyone sore! about a week before af i get the sore boobs, then my sense of smell changed before af too, and having to go and urinate a lot more than normal, few days before af, and tiredness kicked in real early too, could have been because i had an 8 month old and 26 month old though!

[the_other_half]

My first pregnancy symptom is always getting very sick(not like morning sickness) its more flu like usually 1-2 weeks after conception. I always found it odd that i'd get so sick and i haven't heard of any others experiencing that. One of my doctors had said it was because when you get pregnant you become more susceptible to sickness.

[penswriter]

My first sign was a missed period at about 2 weeks along, followed by EXTREMELY tender breasts. I mean so tender even bumping them would put me in extreme pain.

[Rhi315]

oh, and I don't remember when...maybe like 9 weeks?

[Rhi315]

Mine was a missed period...but other than that it was nausea whenever I smelled food or brushed my teeth.

[tryingfor1sttime815]

1st pregnancy was exhaustion and missed period.  This time was my complete lack of control on emotions I would cry three to four times a day and that was three to four days before AF was suppose to arrive.  I was crying in the bathroom at work even which is not like me at all.

[NicMom]

Heartburn followed a few days later by sore bb's and then being really tired.

[Clysta]

Good question. Maybe around 3-4 pregnancy of pregnancy. I can't remember, but I wasn't trying to conceive at the time and I had no idea what symptoms pregnancy even brought.

[PetiteWonder]

mine is usually a missed period...  

but like symptom wise- hunger and tiredness.....  generally like 1 week after my missed period
