Sore breasts, moody, tired....??? Some women claim that they just "know" when they are pregnant.
Just curious.... 
huggybugboy replied: this is funny. we were trying and I was so looking forward to taking a pregnancy test that first time even though I was pretty sure I wasnt pregnant yet (first try and all). But the day before my period was due I ate a bagel with cream cheese and it made me sooo nauseated. Very out of the ordinary for me, so I took the test early and there was a very faint line. 
lilvixen replied: It's funny you should mention that because for months before I actually got pregnant, I was convinced we had conceived. I either felt nauseous, extremely tired, sore breasts, all the usual symptoms that convinced me I was pregnant but I really wasn't. When I took the HPT that came out positive, it was purely on a whim. I wasn't overly tired, nauseous or anything like that. My period was 2 days late (which is normal for me) so I took a test and it was immediately positive. Imagine how hard my jaw hit the floor! I was only four weeks when I found out and thought I was lucky for escaping morning sickness. Bad idea! If only I had waited two more weeks, I would have known I was pregnant for sure. Virtually the morning of the beginning of my sixth week, I woke up nauseous, overly tired and moody with breasts so sore I couldn't even lay on them. That's when I really started to 'feel' pregnant.

luvmykids replied: I'd been unbelievably tired for about a week but my period was always unpredictable so I blew it off. I just woke up one day soooo sick. When I didn't feel better the next day I got suspicious. I was so sick constantly-unfortunately, it was not just "morning" sickness. When we took the test I was totally unprepared and didn't know you couldn't get a false positive. I went back to the drugstore and bought three more!
Um...maybe?!?
I'll tell you guys tomorrow!

MyBlueEyedBabies replied: With Katy I was Soooooooo Sick starting from about 2.5 weeks, I could smell anything within miles, I was moody, and if someone walked into a room it made my boobs hurt.
Matt I was tired and that's it before the test
THis time nothing just the test. I had actually been convinced it hadn't happened and we would try again this month.
djwebb replied: heart burn, sore breasts and I was hungrey all the time...this is before I even missed my period!
jcc64 replied: Very heightened sensitivity to all kinds of smells, feeling very sick and just "weird".
mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Both times, before I found out I was PG, I was drinking, lol...that sounds really bad because we were TTC with Wil but I had given up at that point and it was Christmas. But somehow the alcohol just wasn't going down very well and I had a hangover from only one drink! That's how I knew. My boobs don't really get sore until many weeks into the PG and I don't really get much MS. I do smell everything, but that's normal for me! 
MyLuvBugs replied: Tired. I started sleeping in the middle of the day, and I'm usually not a napper. Also, with this one the indigetstion has been crazy, and the moodiness is what told my husband that I needed to take a test. HA! For some reason, when I'm PG all little things make me SOOOOO mad. 
lol
CosmetologyMommy replied: I never missed my period I was just sooo tired and I am usually full of energy and able to get by on not alot of sleep.
PrairieMom replied: With #1 my boobs were so sore, but I waited until I was 3 days late before I tested. With #2 I tested so early that I didn't really have any symptoms yet. I acutually felt more Pregnant the month before when we had a "swing and a miss" 
moped replied: I knew about an hour after it happened, my boobs tingled and I jsut knew!
scattytart replied: i was just wondering are you expecting have you found out yet, Fingers crossed that you are!
Mommy2Isabella replied: I went to the doctor because I was SICK, they thought I had food poisoning, we had already ruled out pregnancy because doctors have been telling me since i was 15 that, pregnancy wasn't a possibility without InVitro, so the gave me some medicine and sent me about my way. On the way home, I was like, something isn't right, so I went to the Wal - Mart by our house and picked up the Equate < cheap pregnancy test, and went home. VERY nervously took it and awaited the results, about 1 minute after taking it ... the line appeared. So I went back to the doctor the following day, and through them for a loop, seeing as they were all positive it couldn't happen! They thought I was further along because of the MORNING sickness, but turns out, I have really high hormone levels, which has tipped them off into thinking, TWINS. .. Has anyone else had the high hormone levels and exaggerated symptoms ...?

amymom replied: Sinus Infections ... believe it or not. My periods were always irrecgular. So I never knew when I was late or not. All 4 pregnancies I got a sinus infection first, then noticed that I hadn't had a visit from Aunt Flo in a while and took a test. Except for one pregnancy, I had a sinus infection but went for a routine Gyn appt and they tested since I hadn't had Aunt Flo for 6 months and I was pg.
kit_kats_mom replied: My cycles are way irregular so a missed period never really was my first sign.
With K, I had been charting and the software I was using said "you may be pregnant, test today" so I did.
With Lauren, I had only had 3 cycles since K was still a voracious nurser. I was laying in bed one night and had a white flash in my head. It was wierd. Thought I was having a stroke or something. The next day, I was driving past a drugstore and thought "I should probably pick up some folic acid". Then I thought, "what the heck did I just think that for? Am I nuts?"
A few days later I was nursing K and posting to this board when it suddenly occured to me that I hadn't had AF in awhile. Checked my calendar and it had been 45 days. Not so wierd for me though. especially since my cycles were just starting back up. Anyway, I tested and it was positive. My little suprise. LOL
MomToJade&Jordan replied: I just knew with the both of them. I think I was in denial with Jade because we had lost two before that and I didn't want to get excited about it. With Jordan I remember going to the base fair and thinking maybe I shouldn't get on the rides. That was about 3 days before my 30th birthday. The day after I turned 30 I tested and sure enough I was pg.
My3LilMonkeys replied: My DH told me. 
No, really! With both girls, around the time AF was due he told me that I was PG and to take a test. And the one time that AF was 10 days late and I was convinced I was PG he told me I wasn't - and he was right.
PhiMuMommy replied: my boobs started growing.. they itched and hurt so bad i couldn't wear a bra..and i was passing out for no reason constantly..
A&A'smommy replied: sore and bigger breasts, dark areola, using the bathroom alot, VERY tired, all the classic symtoms (before pg test) except morning sickness
CantWait replied: 
Tomorrow, why not tonight Best wishes.
With me, #1 I missed my period and my mom basically told me I was pregnant, so I went and got a test done and sure enough, I was.]
#2, I just knew...so I did a home pregnancy test and it was positive.
MichaelsMommy replied: My boobs were very sore and I 'just knew' don't know how to explain it...
I tested a week before af was due and got a second line. When I went
for my blood test to confirm they were really shocked that I was in so
early - telling me I was 'just barely' pregnant lol
Heather replied: With this pregnancy it was definitely the hormones. I was soo mean and nasty in the beginning. HORRIBLE. I knew something was up. My period was funky the month before so I wasn't sure when my period was due. So that was the only thing that tipped me off...
ilovemybaby replied: I had implantation bleeding and tender breasts. As well as being a bit moody and tired.
TeagansMom609 replied: I didnt have any symptoms at all with either pregnancy. I was just late with AF, but didnt feel pregnant at all. I was suprised both times when the test came up positve because I didnt feel pregnant what so ever. Weeks later when the morning sickness kicked in is when I felt it.
luvmykids replied: Just the morning sickness. I've never had a very regular cycle so it wasn't weird to me to be late or miss one here and there. Just the sickness.
