One indication that I was pregnant was about a couple of days before AF was due was sore boobs, I never ever get sore/tender boobs when AF arrives. That made me go hmmm... But then I forgot all about AF and so didn't find out I was UTD until 5 weeks later when I realised I couldn't remember my last AF! lmao woops! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I'm the same as Sabrina and Nic - never get sore boobs with AF, only when pregnant. That's what made me test so early this time hehe.
Sabrina, are you saying your boobs are sore now? bring on Monday, you can take a test at coffee group  ------------- DD 4yrs DS 2yrs http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Me too H. I didn't really get any early preggy signs that really stood out from the typical AF signs. My sore boobs didn't really kick in till ages after either. They were tender at first but they always are around AF anyway. The one thing I noticed was my CM was different. ------------- Me 34 Him 35 DD almost 2 years old and...

Sorry but in my experience you really can't tell much difference. I got all the same symptoms when I was about to get AF as I did when I finally got UTD. The ONLY difference was a lack of spotting before AF, which I always got a few days before and was a dead giveaway that the witch was on her way.
Hope your symptoms are pregnancy ones, if you've been TTC! GL  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hi Bobsta,
Its driving me crazy every month thinking that something is a sign of early pregnancy at the moment its sore BB's but I cant remember if that was a problem before TTC or just in my head now!! |
