    it is not only different for every person - but also every pregnancy.
    with my first, I had no symptoms until near 12 weeks when I go slight nausea.
    with my second, we weren't TTC and I only took a HPT because I 'felt' pg, I was 5 weeks along (I was extremely surprised when the HPT was pos).
    This time I swear I started to notice signs before I could even take an accurate test. the m/s kicked in a couple of days after my pos HPT (after numerous negs), and steadily got worse.

    I felt what I though was strong AF pains around 3 weeks and was getting sh****tty that she wasn't making an appearance despite all the lead-up. The fatigue started at 4 weeks (this was when I finally went to the GP to see what was up) and was really bad around 7-8 weeks but started easing at 10 - I'm almost back to normal on the energy front now
    But apart from that and tender BB I've had no m/s (thank goodness!) so of course I kept stressing that there actually was still a baby growing inside me til I had the scan yesterday - isn't it funny how we stress over every twinge and ache then stress when they're not there either?

    The fatigue kicked in between week 4 and 5 and my BB's were a little tender - nothing major but noticable. My MS (all day and night to be precise!) kicked in about half way through week 6. I haven't vomited but feel off most of the time, even when I get up for my middle-of-the-night loo trips. I've been feeling VERY pregnant since the nausea started - like I've been hit by a bus! I secretly love it though

    The earliest symptom I had (that I recognised) was extremely sensitive breast tissue. Water touching them even hurt and that was before I got positive HPT. I didnt get morning sickness until 6-7weeks. I guess its different for everyone and yo know your body better than that doctor

    I remember sitting on the couch crying because I felt like AF was coming, and TTC was taking far far too long. I had no symptoms other than usual pre-AF symptoms. Turns out I was pg! The pre-AF feelings went away at 5 weeks and I didn't get any other symptoms until about 8 weeks. I guess we all are different!
