What about no symptoms?

Hi everyone!

My soon to be DH and I have decided that even though our wedding is a year away (because we wanted to have the ceremony in the fall) we both wanted to start ttc now. I have been off bc for only two months and the first day of my last cycle was Oct. 19. We made sure to "try" around when my expected ovulation date was, and I usually have a pretty regular 28 day cycle. So far as of today, no AF. But I don't have any of the symptoms that everyone else is describing on here. I have to frequently urinate, but that is very normal for me. The only thing I have noticed is that I am pretty tired all the time, and I have had one or two days of steady, mild cramping. Once about a week ago, and today. Has anyone else experienced a lack of symptoms like this and still been pregnant? I'm not really expecting it to work this soon, but we are hopeful. If AF comes in the next couple days then we will try again next month. But not after that! I don't think I could handle being 8 to 9 months pregnant in a wedding dress! Thanks for reading and any help or advice you have give me.

Take care of you and yours,

Amy

With my son, I was 2 weeks late when I found out and had no symptoms. We weren't trying and I never used to keep track of my cycle, so it was actually my boyfriend that noticed I was late. I had no "symptoms" pretty much the whole pregnancy. No morning sickness, no sore boobs, none of the classic side effects of pregnancy. I really felt great, so maybe that's what'll happen for you too!! :)

Hi,
With my first preg I had no symptoms (I can remember) till about 11- 12 weeks lmp. I didn't find out till I was like ten weeks or so. I pretty much missed my 1st tri. As soon as I found out I had M/S with a vengence. So maybe you'll have late symptoms or be REALLY lucky like the PP stated and not have any. HTH.

Hi! I am currently 31 weeks pregnant and I just check in on this board sometimes. 2 months off of bc is not too early, let me tell you :) I got pregnant with this one the month I stopped taking bc (we decided to switch to condoms because the bc was making me sick). Well the condoms didn't work out. So you CAN get pregnant the first month or two. I didn't have any symptoms until I was about 11 weeks, when I found out I was pregnant! I just assumed that I wasn't getting my cycle because I was coming off of the pill and my body was regulating itself. Goodluck!!

My situation seems to be very similar to yours. I stopped taking bc 2 months ago. My last cycle started on 10/22 and I ovulate early (day 9/10). Last week I started to notice mild cramping, lasting a few moments several times a day. (w/none some days) Other than that I feel great. I took a HPT yesterday and it was positive. This would have been 15dpo. I too wondered if the mild cramping was an early sign and it looks like it was. Good luck!

Seems like me and you are in the same situation right now. Right now my MP is going on 2 weeks late. I've had some "IFey" symptoms, but I took a HPT and went to the doctor and both come up negative. Thing is my cycle is usually pretty regular so, me and my hubby are dumbfounded at the moment. I have frequent going to the bathroom thing, fatigue, cramping, nausea every now and then, so who knows!
