PG Symptoms w/o Sore BB's??

Has anyone who has previously been PG had other PG symptoms (nausea, tired, flu-like, etc) but didn't notice change or soreness to/of their BB's? I've been sick now for about 5 days but no fever. Less appetite, nothing sounds good (and I usually LOVE sweets!) or actually TASTES good, tired, sort of achy or flu-like, kinda foggy headed and lots of gooey CM but no change to BB's and I'm wondering do I have a virus or am I indeed PG? Obviously I can just POAS but like many others, just wondering if I'm reading to much into a regular 'ol freakin' cold before I take the plunge to check. Thanks!

I think the combination of symptoms for each woman is unique. Some women have no symptoms whatsoever when they test positive, others have every symptom in the book.

I noticed you're on CD10 though... that would be awfully early for ovulation, much less any onset of symptoms - symptoms can't even start until after implantation which would be around 7DPO. Maybe you're coming down with the flu or something?

That's what I wondered but my last AF was pretty light and that was just a week ago so I'm wondering if PG could be the culprit. I didn't test last weekend b/c AF showed up and I did wonder if it was lighter than usual but just dismissed it. Guess I'll POAS and see...

Thanks! :o)

Hi Susan, Your symptoms sound exactly like how I feel when I am pregnant. I have been pregnant twice (one DS, one m/c) and both times I never did get any soreness or tenderness in my bbs. I never even notice any kind of a change in them until later in the pregnancy and when my milk came in. Good luck to you!!

Monique, thanks for confirming that it CAN happen without a noticeable change to BB's. I haven't POAS yet, but I'm still feeling a little queasy and yucky and still don't have my regular appetite back, nothing really sounds good. I could just have a lingering bout of the flu or a gastrointestinal bug but I'm usually over those after a couple of days. Hmmm. Well I certainly appreciate your post to my message, I wondered if it was stupid for me to think that I could be PG with no change to my BB's since I always hear everyone say how sore they are or how big they suddenly got and trust me, these little A-B cups would know if there was a change in size! LOL

I'm so sorry for your loss, Monique. I hope you've recovered physically and know that emotionally that will take some time and may be something you never completely get over but I hope that you try again when you're ready and that you get that BFP and go all the way. God Bless.
