Did y'all ladies have this when you very early in your pregnancy???

1 - my breasts have been hurting for about 5 days now, and they never hurt prior to AF.

2 - I have been having some wild/crazy dreams - and I used to never remember dreaming, or what I dreamed about.

My period is supposed to arrive today, but she's not here yet. I tested on Fri & Sat b/c I thought I might be and I wanted to surprise DH when he returned from a business trip, but those were BFN.

I probably won't test again until later this week. (mainly b/c DH wants to use the natural PG test of AF not showing up)

lots of times the positive wont show up on a test till 5-7 days after your missed period. i would wait to take another test for sure.

my symptoms have always been tiredness and nausea. i always start getting nauseus a couple days after my period is due, even before i take a test. The first time i was pregnant i thought i had the flu or food poisoning.

One of my first symptoms with my first was pee-ing a lot. And I mean A LOT. Early symptoms were less pronounced with number 2.

Are you peeing more?

I'm not sure that I'm peeing more than normal, or if I'm constantly going to the bathroom to check if AF has shown.... :scratch:

:sigh: The problem is that pretty much all early AF symptoms are exactly the same as AF, or when AF is approaching. I guess having been through it myself, I hate seeing women analyzing and nit picking over every little symptom. It's so hard when you get your hopes up and end up with a broken heart.

Everybody is so different.

I had no symptoms what so ever, other than the fact that I was late. I have never had a very regular cycle and a few months previously I had a cyst on one of my ovaries. I thought I was just late because I had another cyst so I didn't test until about day 60 or something.

It came up positive. When I went to the doctor I discovered I was already 8 weeks but I had no symptoms at all. From week 11 to 16 was a completely different story...I don't think I've ever thrown up so much in my life!

Ditto. Everytime I thought I was pregnant, I wasn't. Every time I was, I was certain I was not. Hope is often symptomatic. LOL

Were you charting?

I agree, and normally I wouldn't even think about it, but I never have breast pain prior to AF - and this was lasting pain.

Ditto. Everytime I thought I was pregnant, I wasn't. Every time I was, I was certain I was not. Hope is often symptomatic. LOL

I can understand the hope thing but to be honest, I wasn't very hopeful for this cycle at all - I thought we had missed our window, but as I said the breast pain is very odd for me.

I didn't start charting until after I ovulated, so that I could get in the habit for next month. My temps have remained high since I started, but I don't have anything to base them off of, so who knows.

I took a test this AM, and it was inconclusive, so we are going to wait until this weekend to test again. Obviously if AF doesn't show.

:scratch: What do you mean inconclusive? It's either positive or it isn't. A line is a line.

hehe - well, there was obviously some line there - but it was SOOO faint that DH & I aren't ready to call it a positive yet. We both saw it, at 5 minutes. After looking at peeonastick.com it starting to make me feel like it was a positive.
Everyone is telling me to take a digital - which is probably what I will end up buying for this weekend (rather than doing this line dance).

if the line shows up- it's positive. PG tests can give false negatives, but not false positives.Unfortunately, that still doesn't necessarily mean that it will be a viable pregnancy....

That's the part that freaks me out - but I have heard a lot of ladies have gotten very LIGHT positives with Dollar Tree tests.

When/if I test this weekend I'll go digital.
