What were the 1st signs to make you believe you were pregnant?

Question

Hello Mom,
What were the 1st, 1st signs or symptoms that you had to make you believe that you were pregnant? How did the assumption make you feel? What did you partner, boyfriend, or husband think? What did your parents think? How old were you?

Answer 1

Praying to the porcelain goddess on a regular basis. I was working my first tax season and thought that I was really under a lot of stress and working non stop.

I was 24.

My mother asked how could that happen, and I told her that if we had to explain this to her we had problems......

Answer 2

First one: I was 27. My boobs really hurt about 2 days after conception. But I didn't think I was pregnant till 3 days before my missed period. I had pink "implantation" bleeding. I knew I was pregnant because my period has been late before, but NEVER early. My husband was excited as it was the first month we had tried. My parents were elated to become first time grandparents.

Second one: I am 28. I was really craving eggs with oregano. Which is really weird. Just weird cravings like that. And I felt more bloated than normal. But I kept taking the tests and the tests kept saying no. We visited my parents and my mom looked at me and said "you're pregnant." And I told her that I was 4 days late, but the test said no. 2 days later I took another test and it came out positive.
Again, we were both excited as it was the first month we tried and it worked right away again. My parents were also excited to become grandparents for the second time.

Answer 3

The first time I kinda had an idea when we were drinking and I had to beers and felt ill,which never happened,and I knew we weren't being as responsible as we should have been.So I took a test and it was positive!My boyfriend was in shock,but we had 9 months to get used to it,and my father wasn't all that happy,but was very supportive.The first time I was 19.The second time was when my son was 4 months old,I still have no idea how it happened,but I was late there really wasn't any other symptoms,and everyone was ok w/ it!!

Answer 4

1st signs or symptoms was sore/tender breast, missed period and just kind of feeling like my body was preparing for pregnancy plus I was extremely tired. My assumptions made me feel really nervous and scared. At the time my bf was estatic, just really happy. My mom basically knew before I told her and was happy and stated that I am an adult and it's about time. 21 yrs old.

This has happened over the last 4 months. I am 17 weeks preggie.

Answer 5

I am 21 I remember being tired all time but, i just thought i was very sleepy from staying up all time of the night. and had very slight cramping come with it. I saw a 1 day menstrual cycle and knew something was wrong immedately i went to cvs and got a pregnancy test with to in the box. I took mine at work. the 1st one said positive I cryed like a baby it was a horrilbe feeling for me. 2 hours later i took the other on it said positive more tears came down. So i called my best friends and told her who was already 6 months pregnant she laughed in my ear. she worked at a clinic i asked her if ahe could get my a pregnancy test cause i tried to convince my self it was just stress. took another the plus sign came up. from that point theres was nothing i could do. i told my baby father and he was happy my first and his first.

happy now, i am having a boy i cant wait to hold him in my arms 29 weeks and counting

Answer 6

The only symptoms I had were that my areols (nipples) where changing. I thought I was just imaging things, but my boyfriend did notice a change. As soon as I missed my period I took a test and got a big fat positive. Just a few days later is when my "morning" sickness kicked in. Then about a week later come the exhaustion.

Answer 7

With my first i was peeing all the time very early on which made me think i was pregnant...i turned out to be correct,i was 19 when i got pregnant...my boyfriend was very supportive and loved the fact we were gonna have a baby,my mother was horrible telling me to abort etc.as my sister was too. my dad didnt mind at all.i was a little scared but ok. with my second i had felt sick a lot and very very sleepy which made me think i was pregnant.. everyone in my family was happy and supportive including my mother and my husband *same father* i was 24...now with this one im 20 weeks pregnant and im 25...i felt like i was pregnant because of the constant cramps and backache and bloating i was having..i was also very very drained and exhausted *this was before i even missed my period..my hubby was shocked but hes happy cause he is getting a second son =) ,im very very happy as well as my family...no regrets with any...

Answer 8

I didn't have sore breasts until like 2 days before my period was due. Ususally it would start about 2 weeks before my period was due. Although I waited to take a test because my period is very irregular. I found out when I was exactly 5 weeks along. My fiance was very excited, and my dad cried because he was so excited (this will be his first grandchild, my mom's second). I am 21 and will be 22 when the baby is born.

Answer 9

My only sign was that I was a week late....morning sickness didn't start until after the doc confirmed I was pregnant. Husband was happy - even though I woke him up @ 4 AM! I'll be 22 when the baby is born

Answer 10

My first symptoms were my boobs hurt first, then I couldn't smell or eat anything without getting sick. I had literally just turned 21 when I found out. My parents were happy because I had just gotten married 2 months before and my job where I was the asst. manager closed down a month before I found out. It was perfect timing
