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).
