    I had strong suspisions that I was pregnant before I tested, but I was scared to let myself get my hopes up too much because we had been TTC for 12 months. For me I had a really metalic taste in my mouth and lots of mouth ulcers at around the time of conception and my cousin suggested that it could be that I have a serge of hormones and I'm pregnant. Then on the day that I tested, I'd caught up with a friend for coffee and was telling her how I was feeling a bit crappy and explaining how I was feeling and she told me I was pregnant and bought me a 3 pack of HPTs. When I got home I tested and within 30seconds the test came up positive...I was 3 weeks pregnant (I tested a few days before AF was due).

    it was our 24th month trying and i remember i tried to resist the urge to buy a test before AF which never happened! so i asked DF to get one and after i hung up the phone i felt all shaky and nervous and had to do breathing excersices like i knew something big was about to happen, id never felt like this before, lo and behold did the test 4 days before AF was due and it was positive!

    I knew the day after I conceived. We had been using OPKs & I remember thinking "Won't need to worry about using them anymore!" I had some early symptoms too like feeling really full & also abit queasy.
    Did a test a few days before AF was due & was not surprised at all that it was positive.
    Good luck!!

    I knew, but was in a bit of denial. I started getting the sorest (.)(.) at 4DPO (though I thought O was later - wasn't temping, so didn't believe it). DH just knew too - I was more surprised by the double lines than he was, but by 14DPO, I had so many symptoms so I shouldn't have been shocked.

    DS1 We were only trying for 3mths so was in shock when it said yes so nope didnt know, Tested 3 days before my AF was Due
    DD I knew for 2wks before i gave in and did a test so was 7wks by the timme i tested etc, i think the whole sickness at the same time of day everyday gave it away too lol Tested 3 Days before AF was due
    DS2 (the one im baking) i knew i was the day after we DTD, convinced myself i wasnt coz we were going to wait another 6mths before starting to try but i had in my head that i was and it wouldnt get out of my head, so no shock when it cam up pos. everything i did changed knowing i was preg before i tested. i waited 8days after my AF was due before testing (on mothers day lol)

    hi all;
    With DD I remember thinking after DTD that I was pregnant; but didnt think anything of it cause we werent even trying at the time. A month went by before I took a test, it was christmas, new year, we had birthdays in between and we both were working heaps, so I wasnt that surprised when AF didnt come. When I finally took a test, it came back with a BFP within seconds and I nearly fainted. After that we had to go out, and whilst out DH says to me, you're glowing; and I figuered it was time to tell him.
    Ironically we both think we conceived on the same night!
    This time round, I had got AF only once since DD was born, and started to test because I had no idea what was going on with my body. Four tests over a month were neg...
    The day after my birthday, i was making DD brekky, and couldnt stand the smell of vegemite, and I had the most horrible hangover, off one drink mind you!!!!
    Went down and brought a test and it was BFP.
    The funny thing is thatwhen I told DH he said to me that he thinks he knew which time had been the time. Again I had thought the same.
    When we finally got our due date off the scan, looking back we had been right!!

    yes! we only dtd once during the month as we were both so busy. at 9dpo i was at the shops and saw a pregnancy test on sale and thought "may as well buy it", not thinking that i'd use it that cycle. but that afternoon i thought even though it was probably too early to test that i would. i wasn't a habitual tester or anything like that, it was just an impulse to test. BFP came up faint but straight away. bub #2 is due in april! dh is still in shock that it really can happen from one BD!!
