We are trying this month and im honestly checking myself every day for any sign. How early did u guys actually start noticing something? Or is it too soon to even feel anything before the test?
Actually, for me, it started right around week 5 yaar. I was feeling super exhausted and had this weird metallic taste in my mouth. But honestly, don't stress if you don't feel anything yet, it varies a lot!
With my PCOS history, my cycles were always irregular, so I couldn't rely on dates. I felt extreme fatigue and mild cramps around week 6, but since PCOS symptoms can mimic pregnancy, a blood test is always the safest way to know.
Welcome to the group! Most women start feeling things around the 5th or 6th week, like breast tenderness or mild nausea, though some feel it even before missing their period. Don't worry if you don't feel much yet, everyone's body reacts differently.
I totally understand that eager waiting period, it's so full of hope and butterflies! For me, my breasts felt heavy and tender almost a week before my missed period. Sending you so much love and hoping you get your happy news soon.
For me, the very first sign around week 5 was a weird sweet craving and being constantly thirsty, which I later realized was linked to my sugar levels. Make sure you eat clean and small meals from the start, even if you just have mild nausea.
I can only share what happened with me, but I didn't feel a single thing until I was almost 7 weeks along! Then suddenly the nausea hit me out of nowhere, so don't worry if your symptoms are taking time to show up.
When I had my first consult at the private hospital, the nurse told me symptoms usually kick in after the HCG levels build up around week 5 or 6. If you're unsure or feeling very weak, just ask your doctor's team, they are very helpful.
