With my first two pregnancies, I had a sharp cramping pain that felt like ovulation but lasted a lot longer and was after ovulation. I had a positive test before my period was due both times. Other than that, no symptoms until 6 weeks or so.

With my third pregnancy, I found out after I was irrationally angry at the world for more than two weeks. I had implantation bleeding that was the equivalent of a period, so I didn't think about pregnancy. I was around 6 weeks when I found out.

We were actively trying so I would test every month about 5 days before my period was due using the cheap bulk pregnancy tests from Amazon. I got a faint positive about 4 days before my missed period. Symptoms started shortly thereafter - nausea and sore boobs.

Almost right away, literally from maybe day 2. My boobs just got weirdly sensitive, and I knew.

About a week or so after missing my period. No other early symptoms but missed period for both pregnancies.

I just had a feeling. I was sitting at my college graduation ceremony and it was like a little bolt of electricity ran through my womb. Didn't have a positive test for a week and a half, but I knew.

The first time: 7/8dpo, I woke up with weird nausea that stayed around the whole rest of the week...and then it ended up a chemical pregnancy several days after I got a positive test. The next time, I had zero symptoms and was positive I wasn't pregnant...took a test at 16dpo just to put my mind to rest and, lo and behold, it was positive. That one stuck (and symptoms kicked in several weeks later)

3dpo. I was bloated and when I laid on my back I felt like a fullness in my pelvis.

I began feeling nauseated at about 4-5 days after conception with each of my three pregnancies. I didn't have cramps or bloating though.

8 days before missed period I had spotting and exhaustion. Tested preg with a 5 day before missed period test. It was faint so I took a bunch more. Yup. I will say, with my first I had no clue till missing period. It was with my second that symptoms came on crazy fast.

Took a test three days before my period was due. Saw only one line. Cried. Husband consoled me. Looked back at the test again in desperation after I pulled myself together and asked DH if I was imagining the world's faintest second line. We went out of town for a family event and I took another test two days later when we got home and it was without a doubt positive. No symptoms until about 6 weeks along. Bloating was the first and most noticeable symptom. I didn't even know what bloating truely was until my first trimester of pregnancy.

I felt nauseous the day before my period was due with my first. Took a test the next day.

I had implantation bleeding with my second--when what I thought was my period was way too light and stopped, I tested.

Cramps and bloat alone were never tell tale signs.

Cramps and bloating are PMS as well as early pregnancy symptoms.

1 week after ovulation I gagged when brushing my teeth when I was pregnant with ds.

'Bout 5 days after I realized my period was late and my boobs were a little sore. Took a test that night, and then another one.

I don't recall if I had cramps or bloating but I would have chalked those up to PMS. Sore boobs are my only reliable sign, as I don't get them before or during my period.

When did you experience early symptoms? What were they? It's only been a week since we did the deed. I've been having cramps and feeling bloated. Curious how soon you knew?
