    This is a little weird but... my gums hurt! Also I had no appetite. Wasn't sick but wasn't hungry. I had that first time around, didn't know what it meant... with my second one, when I had gum ache, I KNEW, even though I would have only been a couple of days in and WAY too early to test.

    my esophagus had gotten REALLY relaxed and I had some HORRIBLE belching episodes. I mean... I would make a trucker cry because my burps were so loud, long and guttural.

    I asked my doctor about this and he said it was because the PG hormone causes your insides to slow digestion (so the baby had time to absorb the nutrients) that my esophagus had relaxed. Since it was Christmas holiday time I wasn't able to get to the doctor until I was 5 weeks PG. So, I had the belching for a LONG time before I was able to get to the doctor.

    I can still put a trucker to shame... :)

    WIth my 1st pregnancy I had some majorly horrible abdominal pain (and that was right at being late on my period). Plus I had a really awful sinus infection that I just couldn't get rid of for like 3 weeks.
    With my 2nd pregnancy I had horrible lower back pain for over a month. It didn't matter how I was sitting or what I was doing, it hurt. So I googled lower back pain & pregnancy was the first to come up. So I looked through all possible symptoms & realized I had more than one. I took a test that afternoon & come to find out I was pregnant.
    There are a TON of symptoms that you can have, no necessarily all of them but maybe just 2-3 that stick out to you. I'd take a test for sure! GL

    Anymore pregnancy test will do 3 day BEFORE your missed cycle, but normally only gets an accurate that early with your morning pee. Probably have to wait till morning! Make sure to tell us!!!

    Posh, I am in the same boat as you, and hoping! We've been trying for 11 months to no avail :cry: It's rough because my first two were conceived by just LOOKING at my (ex) husband. Now it's much harder.... BUT, if we're both pregnant then we'd be due at almost the same time! Also, someone said something about super easy weight loss.....well you saw what I lost this week! I'd be so happy :bigsmile:

    Oh and I forgot to add I'm having very light spotting! Ahhh!!! Sorry if that's TMI!!

    That could be the baby implanting, I do not have children but my SIL has had some problems and I know a lot about it from her. It might be too early for you to test yet so if you get a negative dont be discouraged wait another week. Good luck, I am praying for you!

    1st pregnancy...nothing! No clue! But around 7 weeks, I became EXTREMELY sick with morning/noon/night sickness. Lost 20 lbs in 3 months!

    2nd pregnancy...hunch, and then...hunger! Always!

    3rd pregnancy...just a hunch, but ended in miscarriage. :(

    4th...I just felt "off". My uterus was achey, I was fatigued.

    Good luck, keep us posted on the results!!!

    I have had breast soreness with all 4 of mine, along with increase in having to pee & headaches. They have test now that can tell up to a week before you are supposed to start your period, so you might be able to find out soon! Good luck!
