      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!

      EXTREME tiredness, which was before I found out. I conceived around 12/10/09 and got a positive test on 12/21/09. I was due for my period on 12/28 or so, so I was able to find out EARLY. I used a First Response test and it popped up positive right away. Depending on how far past ovulation you are, you may be able to test. Then around 6 weeks I started throwing up, which lasted until 18-20 weeks. Ugh.

      My fingers are crossed for you!!!!

      My first "sign" of pregnancy for all my kids is I started craving Dairy Queen Ice Cream and I had to have it NOW!!!!....and I don't like DQ's ice cream .

      So off to DQ I went and as soon as I was done, I headed to the pharmacy for a pregnancy test and sure enough ++++! LOL

      OMGosh, yes, sooo true. That and EXTREME fatigue were my signs....I am ALWAYS tired during my TOM because of my iron deficiency...but man oh man, when I was pregnant, I could hardly keep my eyes open at my desk. LOL

      oh - I also became EXTREMELY dyslexic during both my pregnancies... usually I correct myself while I type but I missed everything and the biggest culprit was the word "HTE". :laugh: this actually started almost immediately and totally freaked me out until I knew I was PG.

      Lol... I'm assuming you meant The?? or maybe Eth?? lol... just kidding! fingers crossed!

      My breasts were extremely sore with my first one. They were so tender I could not sleep on my stomach like I am use to doing. Then when I was late, I took a test and sure enough - we were expecting! With my 2nd, I had no idea until about 3 months in, because I had just had my daughter and was breast feeding so I lost all pregnancy weight. All of a sudden my belly looked like I was 3 months along and had not had a cycle since the birth of my daughter in Feb. Well in December of that same yr my son was born! Yes 2 babies in one year. They are 10 months and 15 days apart. :)

      When brushing my teeth, the smell of fresh garlic, or the smell of canned tuna makes me gag. These things are instantanious for me & last through the entire pregnancy. I threatened my husband with divorce if he cooked with garlic during my last pregnancy!

      With my daughter...it was too early to tell. I just had a 'feeling' and then became extreamly tired. I could barely keep my eyes open. I took a home test 2 weeks prior to TOM and it tested positive. I about passed out from finding out...I was also 18 at the time, lol.

      Besides morning sickness, I did just feel different. And instead of a period I had brown spotting for a day or so. And I was exhausted all the time.
