We just started trying this month and im noticing every small thing in my body now haha. Wanted to know from u ladies what were the very first signs u felt before testing?
I had slight spotting and mild cramping and immediately panicked thinking something was wrong, but it was just implantation bleeding! Fatigue and mood swings are also very common early on, so don't worry at all.
Apart from a missed period, breast tenderness and mild nausea are very common signs. Don't rush to buy expensive digital tests though; a basic strip test works perfectly fine and helps you save for your first doctor's scan.
My very first sign was that I couldn't stand the smell of tea and felt super exhausted by evening. It's a beautiful journey starting, so keep a positive mindset and wait for your missed period to test.
Let's be direct: the most reliable sign is a missed period, followed by nausea and frequent urination. Don't over-analyse every single body ache before your period is actually due, just wait and test.
Honestly, everyone's body reacts differently; some feel nausea instantly while others have zero symptoms. For me, it was extreme fatigue and sudden food cravings. Just take a home test 2-3 days after your missed period to be sure.
