I didn’t have any symptoms even after I found out, I never felt pregnant except having the huge belly but I would do a test monthly just to check if I was.

I was at work one morning, all of a sudden I felt sick, ran for the bathroom and threw up. Had a feeling something was off, and by end of my shift I decided to get a test. It came back positive and when I checked my period tracking app after that, I found out my period was 8-11 days late. Ended up buying two more tests to be sure. Lol.

I did just 3 days ago. I took 2 on a clear blue and they both came up positive 1-2. I'm actually on holiday ATM I have for 6 weeks so obviously got preggas during my holiday lol. My boobs hurt, moody at my partner for no reason and feeling nauseous. That's what made me test.

Thought I'd best do a test before I went to the gp to ask them to test me for perimenopause. Because, as a gynaecologist (!), menopause was the ONLY reason I could think of that my period would be late and od feel like crap!

My period was 4 dates late and woke up to water leaking into my flat badly.
I hade been late before and wasn’t pregnant so I had been avoiding doing a test. Decided to that day as figured I was already having a bad day so a negative test couldn’t make it worse.
It instantly turned positive. Did 4 more tests over a couple of days to be sure.

I was in terrible pain and I thought it was just a cyst on my ovaries. I ended up going to the doctors and I was right! But it came along with a baby lol thankfully it’s gone now and I have a beautiful baby boy

The classic !delayed period 😂

I was really dizzy both times before a missed period x

I think I noticed I was a few days late (didn’t track back then) so I went shopping with my friend and said whilst out I better pick up a test, took it home did the test and turned out it was positive! Me and my partner were currently in an argument so this defo got us talking again 🤣

I was getting chest pains so I went to the drs. Found out I was pregnant there

Vomiting lots of vomiting 🤢

My belly was feeling bloated and achy all the time.. how I would feel when I'm about to start my period but knew it wasn't period related as I finished my period 2 weeks ago.

I just knew, I could just tell. I did a test 2/3 days before my period was due & well yeah it was positive

My partner knew, he told me I should take a test before going to the gym that day. I was like fine I’ll take one but its not going to be positive (my period wasn’t due for another day) Ofc he was right 😂

we’d been trying but i had a dream before i missed my period about having an ultrasound but there were just fish in my belly
took a test and it was the faintest positive, you could barely see
then over the next few days the cat kept coming to sit on me & i was having cramps that didnt feel like period cramps and the tests were still very faint but i think the day before my period was due i got a digital positive

Because I took a test haha. No, we were trying and my period was quite late the month before making me think I was pregnant then but I wasn’t, after being a couple of days late the following month I took a test which was positive x

We were on our honeymoon and my period didn’t come as expected, and I was also getting really emotional/ anxious about things I normally love (like snorkelling). I joked I better be pregnant otherwise I had no excuse to be so pathetic. Took a test the morning we landed back and boom, pregnant! 😊

Had what I thought was a bad tummy for 2 weeks. Didn't throw up but was just feeling sick.
My grandmother had once commented on my cousins 'stomach issue' citing that she might be pregnant. 16 years later that memory still stayed with me and I took a test which came back positive!
Turns out I'd been pregnant for almost 2 months before I took the test! I had some bleeding around 4 weeks (which apparently is common but I mistook that as my period).

I had nausea when I went out running and I also slept for hours on end but was still tired x

I was waiting for my bd to finish work and decided to do a HPT

My dog wouldn’t leave me alone, kept sniffing around my lower tummy side to side, repeatedly for a whole week and then my husband suggested we take a test. We found out very early thanks to the dog so my period wasn’t late yet 🐾

My pet died 3 days prior. I had no pregnancy symptoms and that month I was with no interested in taking a pregnancy test to just be disappointed again I didn’t need the added upset.. but I sat there and something told me ‘you’re pregnant’ kept brushing it off for a day or so until I just got too curious so took the last test we had. Massive positive. I was 5 weeks! I never believed people when they said they just had a gut feeling but it really is true!

Period was due and I hadn’t bought a shops worth of junk food and my boobs HURT not the normal ache they hurt bad.
Did a test the day my period was due and it was positive.

My lower back was hurting so much. No stretches could remedy it. I was also bad at tracking my period and realized I was several weeks late

With my daughter we had tried first time I took a test before missed period and it was negative thought no big deal first try doesn’t usually take. I had a lot of stress at work and had a bit of spotting the day my period was supposed to start then nothing. I ordered a bunch of ovulation and pregnancy tests so figured I’d try them out and it immediately went dark positive. I figured I did it wrong so took more lol this go round figured I’d put the ovulation tests to work tried that for a couple months then decided it was time to try. I took a pregnancy test almost every other day. This particular day I wanted a glass of wine with dinner so I went to take one to be safe and it was the faintest of positives so I had no wine lol

Super tired, needing a wee all the time and my boobs changed!x

I was a day late & normally I’m never late ever as I tracked them back then and I just felt different so out of curiosity I did one and it was positive

I was on the depo injection so I thought I wouldn’t get pregnant and I didn’t get my period because of this either but I had really bad cramps in my stomach for two months and I kept saying to my boyfriend I think I’m pregnant he was going no your not your just over thinking we agreed to take a test and straight away the boldest lines telling me positive now I’m 20+6 with a baby boy and couldn’t be happier😫

I was getting some bleeding which I thought was my period, so I thought we’d had another unlucky month. Then the ironing made me cry, and my boobs started hurting, and I got a cold sore which I hadn’t had in a couple of years and when I looked it up they can be triggered by hormonal changes. So I began to suspect I was pregnant, and when I noticed my BBT wasn’t dropping as it normally would I took a test 😊

Woke up one morning feeling a little nauseous, was a typical sign my period was due. But then noticed the cat was being extra cuddly to me and lying on my stomach (not typical for her).😸 So decided to take a test anyway, found out I was 4 weeks pregnant. ❤️

Coming up for a year ago now that I found out I was pregnant with my girl❤️ We were on my 40th birthday and honeymoon trip to Iceland, and at about 7DPO I started getting really hungry and feeling a bit weird. I remember at about 8DPO wondering if I should have a drink or not - I didn’t really fancy it and kind of knew I was pregnant. 9DPO we flew home - I kept taking pregnancy tests with the little strips and felt sure I could see a hint of something when we were at the airport 😅 Got home at midnight and did more tests - sure enough they were a lot clearer ❤️ I couldn’t sleep until 3am 🥹 (month prior we’d had a super early miscarriage, so it was both joy and worry over this new pregnancy)

We’ve been trying for 5 years and I was ready to do ivf on the day I was supposed to do my injections I wasn’t bleeding or starting my periods had to wait a few days to bleed so I can start my injections still didn’t so I was told to do a test which I did and it was positive LOL my babies a miracle

Legit went to the hospital for a HORRIBLE uti . Turned out to be 7weeks pregnant WITH a horrible uti🤣

We were in Paris & my period was late by a few days. The day after we came back, I took a test & it was positive 💖

I had been really hormonal 🤣 and when I stopped to realise this, I had a gut feeling I was pregnant.

I had nauseas so i decided to do the test.. i was by myself... Couldnt believe as i did try for a while

I'd had a chemical the month before and I knew all the symptoms leading up to that. I had them all again the second time round and tested and saw a vvfl. We were both hesitant because of the chemical so didn't believe it was real until maybe about a week of positive tests and no period! So not the excited reaction I always imagined but still wonderful!

With my first one my dog got very protective of me. She would lay in bed with me and lay her head on my stomach.
With this pregnancy I got really sick over a weekend and thought it was just fair food that I had eaten all week. So Monday I was still sick and figured I needed to take a test to make sure I wasn't pregnant before making a Dr appointment. Well turns out I was pregnant.

My period was late and my boobs were in agony, my sister told me I was pregnant before I even took the test😂

it was sunday and i took a test — negative. then wednesday rolled up and i woke up with my boobs hurting so bad so i took another — positive. and that was the end of my alaska vacation 😂

My period wasn’t regular so I didn’t even notice my missed period for like 2 months🙃 I found out I was pregnant at like 10 weeks when I started getting nauseous and couldn’t eat. Then took a test!

Both times I had the tiniest amount of implantation bleeding and just had a weird sense of calm come over me like this was it

I was on a family holiday in a really nice place in Greece but was in a really bad mood all week, and my period was a few days late. Did test six days after my period was due and was positive

Waking up really hungry in the middle of the night

My husband and I were out having steaks and margaritas and the food tasted weird and halfway through one margarita I felt drunk as hell (not normal 😂). So we knew something was up and took a test the next morning! Sure enough I was 5 weeks preggers!

My period was a week late but I didn’t for a second think I was pregnant, I fell pregnant straight after my last miscarriage which I had to have a D&C, so I just assumed my body was still recovering, I felt nauseous that week but again put it down to the heat as it was extremely hot, then a week after my period was due I was driving home from work and caught myself holding my belly and knee straight away, did a test as soon as I got home and it was positive x

my period was late so i took a test lol🥰

I was about 4-5 days late on my period, my period was usually irregular due to birth control but I had a range of dates in the month it would “normally” come. I took my birth control out mid October so in January I thought my period would go to a more natural schedule. I was going to wait until I was about full week late on my period but this particular day I was SO BORED at home doing nothing 😂 I had two tests at home and said F it let me take it just for fun. INSTANTLY POSITIVE

I realize I missed my period and I knew my bf and I were getting really freaky those few weeks😂😂 I ended up taking a pregnancy test on Mother’s Day and I was positive and I just had my 19 bday 3 weeks before I found out 😂😂😂

I was a week late. Something thst doesnt ever happen. I was really sus, cause more than late my period always comes early lol
