Hi, I am 11 DPO and I have had positive tests two days in a row. This mornings was a little darker than yesterdays yet still faint. Here's my question: Is it normal that my breasts would not be tender at all? I've had cramps etc. but no sore breasts. I am a bit worried because I've read that a lot of people post that breast tenderness is their first symptom. Maybe it's coming? I'd really be thankful for any first hand experience from you.

everyone's symptoms are different. it might just be too early for yours to be hurting.

First of all...Congratulations!!!

You are too early to even worry about those symptoms. My 1st. symptom with my son was cramping. The nausea, sore breasts, ie "pregnancy symptoms" did not come until 6 weeks or so. I remember being worried too and praying they would come. Oh boy...do they come, haa,haa. Think of it this way: All of your symptoms are due to increased hormone levels. Your pregnancy is early so your levels are not high enough yet to cause the majority of these symptoms. I would like to tell you not to worry but I know as a mom that it is really hard not to. The best thing I can tell you to do is NOT to compare yourself...every woman is so different. Please feel free to email me w/h questions. I work in the medical field so that has given me some insight too.

Hey there! I haven't tested yet (I'm waiting on my Internet cheapies to come in the mail). I'm planning on testing Wednesday if they get to my house by then!

Either way, I really think I am pregnant and the reason why is because my breasts are NOT sore at all. Usually 10-14 days before AF comes, my breasts get SUPER sore and tender. I'm 3 days before AF and no PMS symptoms whatsoever.

The only symptoms I'm having are tender, sensitive nipples (which NEVER happens with PMS), some mild cramping in the right side of my abdomen, constant queasiness, occasional dull headaches, and increased urination.

Every woman's different though - some have symptoms almost immediately after conception, while others take a while to develop the hormones and get the symptoms. I'd say enjoy every moment that you are "symptom-free" while you can!!! :) CONGRATULATIONS!
