When do pg symptoms start?

I don't have any (WAY too early even if I was going to be pg this cycle!) but I'm just wondering when they might start if, by some wonderful miracle, I DO get a BFP this month.

I've heard that symptoms don't start until the fertilized egg actually attaches itself to the wall of the uterus (so anywhere from 6 - 10 days dpo) but I'm not sure if that's accurate.

Any thoughts?

I think every woman is different, but for me the last time I got pregnant I didn't have ANY symptoms until I was about 6 weeks pregnant... In other words WAY after I tested positive etc.

Good Luck!

I also didn't get any real symptoms with ds until about 7 weeks. Then it was sore BB's and m/s. Also, when I tested, for some strange reason I just KNEW it would be positive. Back then my periods were really wacky and I really didn't have any reason to test, but I knew I was pg. I didn't get those pg cramps until about 2 months or so too, when my uterus really started to grow. Hope this helps!

I am dropping in from the December board so I hope you don't mind me replying to your post. That said my first symptoms actually started about 2 or 3 days before I was even due for AF. My prominent symptom was really sore bb's, so sore I actually cried out when SO touched them while we were playing around. I also had unusually bad cramps (I never got cramps before the first day of my period). When AF was about a week late I started peeing alot more than usual and was actually having to get up about 3 times a night to go to the bathroom, which also never happened to me before. We were not trying to conceive so I refused to admit that I may be pregnant. One night my sister asked me if I was pregnant I flat out denied there was even a possibility, then she pulled out an HPT and low and behold I was pregnant. The cramps I had before AF was due actually continued until I was about 10 weeks pregnant, and have since subsided along with the sore bb's. I still have to pee alot but I guess that is to be expected at 19 weeks along. Good Luck and I hope to see you graduate soon.
