    Smile The pregnant body....3rd time round.

    Okay....still have to POAS buuut, I am 99% sure I am utd again so yaaay to us!

    I remember the first time I fell preggas, symptoms could NOT be missed, sore (.)(.)s, swollen/tender belly, tired etc.

    Last pregnancy, I could 'feel' things happening in my belly within days of conception + dizzy spells etc

    This time round, twice I have had lower back pain (feels like I have strained my lower back) a few sharp pains through my belly and (.)(.) but that is about it. For 2 weeks (until last night thank goodness!) staright I would wake up and be unable to get back to sleep for between 1 hr and up to 3 hrs. Not sure if that is anything...possy 2ww anxiety - AF was due MOnday just gone.

    So, to those Mums who already have atleast 1 or 2 kiddies......what were your early pregnancy days like in terms of signs and symptoms????

    With this one, I knew a week before I was due for AF! I had sore boobs and heartburn and just that 'feeling' that I was pregnant. Took a test (well 3 actually) that day which all came up really dark.

    Good luck hun (and hopefully it's not too early to say CONGRATULATIONS )

    This time I didn't realise until I was about 10 days late becasue I had no symptoms and was busy with Christmas. With my last two I knew straight away probably from implantation as I was sick straight away.

    I still don't have many sypmtons only occasional morning sickness and feeling tired but DD2 is teething and not sleeping so that doesn't help!

    now as for your question...I knew a few days after conception with V ..I felt different straight away...actually after we DTD I said to J that I was pg and we both laughed in our drunked state
    I didnt know with M though as I had had a m/c and was taking all the signs I had as AF turing up (how naive I was )

    I knew with my 3rd because when we were going for #2, I didn't have any symptoms that would signal AF was on her way - I usually have cramps and a bit of bloating and when I was pg I get nothing - not a twinge or niggle or anything. So when we were going for #3 and in the TWW I felt the same way I did with #2 so I knew I was pg.
