We are trying since 2 months and im just so impatient every cycle. Period is not due yet but im noticing small changes in my body. How did u all first realise u conceived?
Having PCOS made tracking so hard for me since my cycles were always irregular. I only trusted a home test when my breasts felt unusually sore and heavy for over a week. If you have irregular periods too, wait a bit longer to test or consult your doctor for a blood test.
Missed period is the most reliable sign, period. You might also feel sore breasts or mild nausea, but don't drive yourself crazy guessing. Just wait for the day of your missed period, buy a kit, and test with your first morning urine.
Honestly, my first clue was crying over a random TV commercial and then wanting to eat parathas at midnight! A missed period is the biggest giveaway, of course. Just take a home pregnancy test a day or two after your missed date to be sure!
I had some spotting early on which made me very nervous, so I didn't rely just on home tests. If you see a positive line or have unusual symptoms, please book an appointment with your gynac. They will do a beta hCG blood test to confirm safely.
Sending you so much love and gentle vibes. Besides a missed period, sometimes you feel subtle changes like heavy breasts or mild cramping. Because of my past loss, I always advise taking a home test carefully and calling your doctor for a blood test to be absolutely sure.
I remember feeling slight cramping and thinking my period was coming, which made me panic so much. But it turned out to be implantation cramping, which is totally normal. If your period is late, just do a simple urine test at home to find out.
For me, it started with extreme fatigue and a missed period, which was tricky because of my thyroid history. I immediately took a home test and then went for a blood test to confirm. If you suspect you've conceived, definitely start tracking with your doctor early to keep everything stable.
