Just wondering...with all the ladies trying to get pregnant and most of you actually succeeding in it...How quick did you notice signs that you were pregnant?

my first sign was no symptoms other than my implantation stabs at 10DPO and then tested 12DPO and got BFP. Nausea and a bit of the scoots at about 4 weeks-4+3 and tiredness.. then by 5 weeks hyperemesis...to this day i havntt had sore boobs tho!
sorry not much help, most peoples are boobs huge and sore, headaches, cramping or twinges and some have nausea...

I was certain by day 7 after conception, even though I was still getting negative tests, hadn't been trying and AF wasn't due for 2 weeks. Didn't get my positive test until 14 days after.
Morning sickness is good for some things, apparently

I think I got UTD on the Monday and was tired ++ by the next Saturday, dry retching on the Sunday, fatigue was shocking all week, very very faint BFP on next Sunday (13 days post conception), strong BFP two days later.

Freakily I felt pregnant at about 3 weeks, suppose about the time af was late and sort of in the back of my mind it kept ticking over.
At 6 weeks I was really nauseous, but had a headache and because I suffer migraines I put it down to that!
Found out at 9 weeks when I realised I couldn't remember when I had af last and that my 'tummy bug'/'migraine' was lasting an awful long time

Nothing till 6 weeks, and only nausea and some tiredness. Still in 6 weeks but am hoping will get nothing else, the nausea is not fun! Weirdly I did feel happier with some symptoms tho - made it feel like it was really happening! GL!

With DS2, first day AF was due, I felt sick - took a test and I was UTD
Can't remember with DS1.

I'm sorry girls...half the time I don't know the meaning of the abbreviations used
So, please humour me and could you tell me what these mean:
DPO = it Days Past Ovulating?
BFP
UTD (actually know what's meant but for the life of me can't think what the U,T and the D stand for )
AF(actually know what's meant but for the life of me can't think what the A and the F stand for )
CM
The reason I'm asking is that with my first I found out kind of like nkap9 mentioned so I did not pay attention to the signs at all
So now...I'm just wondering if my mind is playing tricks on me or if I AM really feeling it.
Still 2 weeks to go till testing will show
No use in testing before my next period is due, right?
Anyway...just wondering if there are ladies that think they felt it early early...

My main symptom was mega sore boobs and missing AF of course.
Considering I havn't had any MS they've been pretty much my only symptoms and I'm now 19 weeks.

I am testing monday because have been feeling the same but my mind is playing tricks I reckon because I had depo so surely not...
DPO- Days past ovulation
BFP - Big fat positive
UTD - Up the duff.
AF - Aunt Flo
CM - cervical mucas?

I knew really early with both of my pregnancies.
DD i had sore boobs & just felt funny. Id never been pregnant before so i wasnt certain i was, i tested the day af was due & got a positive
2nd pregnancy i had a m/c but i knew 2 days after we had sex. I was moody, had heartburn. By 7 days i was nauseous but i never had a positive test until 6 weeks because my HCG levels were so low, and that was a blood test

I went to the doctor a week before my period was due as I was really tired and had the "blues" she almost sent me to a counsellor for depression! The next day I started feeling REALLY nauseous and had little crampy /stabbing feeling in pelvis- like something was going on- but not menstrual cramps.
I did a test the day i was due for my period ... the discover test that shows up slight raises in HCG... and it was FAINTLY positive..
had bloods done and yup i was pregnant! So for me I "felt " signs before my period was due! I dont think this is common though... best of luck!!!

First time 5 weeks - decided to do a pregnancy test cause I had a huge headache and wanted to check i could take something that would have possibly contra-indicated pregnancy - we had been trying
this time - about 5 days after ovulation - just felt different - pregnancy test was very faint but I still just knew

I knew very quickly after conception. I had horrible cramps, lots of CM, was feeling slightly ill (never had full blown MS though) and just to make it really obvious my nipples doubled in size by the time AF was due at 4 weeks. They were also kinda purple and tender a lot of the time. Ohh and I was also (TMI) doing a lot of number 2s
I don't know how early I would have got a BFP though because I was in denial, so waited to test until AF was a couple of days late.
ETA: I also remember one time at maybe 3 weeks DP ran into the back of my foot with a trolley, so I turned around and screamed at him to f&@#! off! I remember my next though very clearly. "Oh crap, I really am pregnant. How do I tell him?!"

LOL Jelly! That's great, oh my dp copped so many earfuls whilst I was pregnant! Poor guy, he would just have to say something and I would be like RAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! And he would look like a lost/scared little puppy and then I would laugh hysterically. My moods were changing every 5 seconds when I was pregnant!

I looking back I had signs from about 3 weeks with really sore boobs. I wondered why bumps in the road really made them hurt. Then from 4 weeks I had constant nausea and dizziness. I tested and the end of the 4 weeks and it was an instant bfp

no signs for me at all besides I was charting so my temp never came down. Felt what in hindsight was implantation pains but at the time I just thought they were weird cramps
Boobs got sore at about 7 weeks and got sick at 8 weeks!

Morning Sickness......
I am lucky enough to have a 3yr old daughter who I had a breeze of a pregnancy with.....no morning sickness, cramps, mood swings - nothing. However, I am now in the IVF threads as it would seem she was a miracle and things aren't going to be so straight forward for number 2. Am about to start a cycle of IVF. However, I'm not due till next week and have been feeling 'seedy' for the past 4 or 5 days. Seems way too soon after ovulation for any pregnancy symptoms.....and am wondering if it's more anxiety about what's about to start than anything else but am wondering if anyone has ever had symptoms show so early??? It's a really funny feeling to describe, sort of just feel really yuck and almost sick but not.......
