Hi all, Couldn't easily find a post regarding Early Pregnancy symptoms (or in my case Imaginary lol) I am interested to hear peoples experiences / symptoms that they have had and whether they have turned into a BFN or BFP. so far for me I have had: Continuously Thirsty for the last 3 days no matter how much water i drink Dry mouth / almost metallic taste to it - kinda goes hand in hand with the thirsty part Peeing all the time (sorry TMI lol) - i think thats due to all the water im drinking! stuffy nose at night and first thing in the morning ** Cough - Generally feeling unwell - kinda cold like.. AF is due on Friday, tested this morning a BFN ! i really hate that white space... wonder if I could be imaging all of the above???

I was sure I was pregnant, I had so many EPS, my period was even really late when it's usually pretty regular. Alas I wasn't. The following month I had no symptoms, nothing at all but I was pregnant. Go figure! I think the mind is extremely powerful. Good luck!

I always get IPS. We're not even trying - medically I'm not allowed to, so no oopsies either. Yesterday I swear I peed about 20 times before midday. AF reliably turned up today. Progesterone has a lot to answer for! Good luck OP, hope you get your BFP asap

My current IPS or FX PS for the last 3 days are: Hot flashes at night, headaches in the afternoon, thirst, Slight cramps, indigestion and vivid dreams! AF is also due in Friday... But the cramping makes me think AF will show her ugly face soon Don't want to test beforehand as I don't want to get a bfn.. This post has been edited by MrsPoon: 21/02/2013, 02:31 AM

Hi MrsPoon, Bummer about AF (did she end up showing?) whinge and vent all you like it will probably me doing it so soon. I miscalculated my days, I am actually due tonight and so far nothing. I am having weird AF like cramps and a sore lower back but thats it....Which could very well mean that AF is on her way. My TTC story - I am 33, my DH and I got married exactly one year ago on Sunday. This is our 3rd month of TTC - I didn't realise how hard it would be TTC (i have been off the Pill since feb 2012). I just thought when you decided it would happen instantly. All at once most ppl i know friends/family had issues TTC we decided (well i did and convinced DH) to start TTC earlier than planned... plus i heard once you hit 35 it gets that much harder...I have a 33 day cycle (normally comes early evening of the 33rd day) - no idea when I ovulate.. really really hope this month is our month... Whats your TTC story?
