Early Stages

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to get pregnant for around 2 and a half months (when I came off the pill). My partner works away so we’ve only managed to try for a baby about four times, so the earliest after being off the pill was the 29th of April. The last time my partner and I had unprotected sex was four days ago. I’ve been getting pains (like mild period pains) for over a week now and my nipples are quite sensitive. Is it too early to be getting symptoms of pregnancy?

Everyone’s different so it’s difficult to say. I had no symptoms at all until around 8 weeks with both of my pregnancies, other women recognise really early that they’re pregnant. Although sometimes it’s easy to over think every little twinge or niggle that you’d normally overlook as a sign of pregnancy. Time will tell! Best of luck, hope it ends up being good news!

As Bexi says it’s too early. When I was trying to get pregnant I often felt it only to be disappointed when the period start. My advice to you my dear is relax, get yourself an ovulation kit or start tracking your periods and ovulation charts... eat healthy and start taking folic acid. Buy some cheap ovulation texts and pregnancy tests on Amazon or eBay and test test test. I did all that and now I have a healthy 9 months old (although it took me a long time.... but we got there at the end)

Good luck Hun

Thanks so much. It’s a lot of work I am super tired but every time I get a smile my heart melts.

I use my calendar app. Also I will recomendó to buy some cheap ovulation and pregnancy tests from amazon. As previously I spent lots of money on them and quite frankly they work just the same.

Also start taking folic acid and royal jelly. If you smoke try to cut down or quit and easy on the alcohol.

Keep us post on your progress
