    early pregnancy signs?

    hello girls!!

    currently doing the dreaded TWW and of course every tiny little thing my head is putting down to 'omg pregnancy symptom!'
    Just wondering what sort of things you girls have experienced in the early <5 week stage? And how many girls experienced nothing and got BFPs?

    TIA!!

    Hi,
    I had sore boobs (which i usually get before a/f anyway) and creamy cm and could smell things a lot stronger. I didnt expect to get a BFP due to lack of symptoms but got my BFP on 12dpo.
    Best of luck. I hope this is your month!

    Im currently 5weeks along but got my BFP at 9dpo, the few days proir to that i had sore boobs and needed to pee alot. Also I couldn't sleep as well (I normally sleep really well), I was really hot and hungry all the time, which I still am

    Good luck, I hope you get your BFP!!!!

    All I got that early was a bit of Thrush - And I have only ever had that twice, only when pregnant, so it's a pretty specific sign from my body - I got my BFP at 11DPO, then had other symptoms but really only mildly, nohting too full on - Good Luck!!

    I could smell stronger to the extent if someone opened the fridge i could smell it 15 metres away
    I was really hot and sleeping with no covers on when it was 3 degrees out
    I was turned off foods i normally loved and ate some i really detested (like vegemite bleh!)

    I had the sorest nipples I'd ever had, got a migraine, and really hot feet. Oh and we went out for Thai, and had the same dishes as always, and they all tasted funny, but DH assured me they tasted normal! I got my BFP the next morning at 10 DPO.

    Ash, really hope this is it for you!

    Hi, I'm just over 4wks so this is all very fresh in my mind. Sorry if it's a bit long.

    I normally get cramps during my LP, starting 5-7 days before AF and for me they normally feel different to "during AF" cramps. This cycle the cramps started earlier than normal (6dpo) and by 10dpo they felt like "during AF" cramps. I actually thought my LP had shortened and that AF was about to start 4 days early. I still keep expecting to see her when I go to the toilet...

    I also had this one really weird cramp at 10dpo. It was definitely located at my cervix and one of my friends swears it was my cervix closing - she said this before I even got my BFP!

    I also found I was really hungry, and I mean ravenously hungry. I don't remember ever feeling hunger like that before! And then when I had the food in front of me I didn't want to eat it...

    I've also been nauseous and really tired, but I've also been completely stressed out (about my follow up blood test tomorrow) which may explain those two symptoms...

    Oh, and I almost forgot - I've been so emotional! We went to see Up last week and I cried (tears streaming down my face, not just one or two) - not just at the part where they couldn't have kids (which did hit me hard), but later in the movie too! This was before I knew I was pg so it wasn't stress-related (heck, I was in a gold class cinema instead of at work, how stressed could I have been?).

    Can you tell that I've been obsessing?

    GL with your TWW.
