    Pregnancy Symptoms - What Was Your Very First Symptom?

    What was the first thing you noticed when you were pregnant?

    No period? High BBT? An aversion to a food, smell or taste? Reflux? Sore boobs?

    Pregnancy Symptoms - What Was Your Very First Symptom?

    I was total feral at DH and lost it over something stupid... Then burst into tears. Next day I got my bfp. At the time I thought it was AF coming as I'd had a pink bleed that morning which was later established to be implant.

    I also went off coffee both times. I was either pregnant or dying. No other logical explanation.

    I've added in over-emotional for the poll

    1st - Over Emotional
    2nd - Reflux/Heartburn
    3rd - Reflux/Heartburn (and I was a little over-emotional)

    Funnily enough 1st and 3rd were both girls, lol.

    Both times I was over-emotional. I was a serial tester so I would be testing and getting negatives (because it was WAY too early) and then I had a crazy meltdown day and tested the next morning and it was positive. Happened both pregnancies so I guess the level of Hcg that shows up on a test is the tipping point for my emotions.

    Over sensitive gag reflex and gagging when I brushed my teeth. A few days before I even got a BFP.

    Generally the first sign for me has been nausea. Once that came in the form of me going out and having one beer and then upchuck city. Either I had turned into a total cadbury OR it was the first indication of nausea!

    I probably tested before I had any symptoms, I was pretty lucky and had fairly symptom free early pregnancies, but I definitely noticed an increasing BBT

    With DD1 my first symptom was sore BBs. With DD2 I was falling asleep on the couch before 8pm for several days before AF was due.

    Pregnancy Symptoms - What Was Your Very First Symptom?

    For all my pregnancies it was always nausea, always knew it would show a bfp on a hpt with nausea. But this pregnancy I didn't notice any symptoms (didnt have nausea straight away) but it was ds2 who acted strangely. He would have to lift my top up and put his head on my tummy and just kept repeating this over the next day. Dh and I then knew, took a test and two dark lines appeared.

    Flu symptoms. I woke up one morning and the light shining through the gap in the curtain felt like it was a laser burning my eyes!! I still didn't test till about 5 days later though cos I was so sure it didn't work (again) and got a bfp, would have been about 4 weeks.
