Did You Ever Just "Know" You Were Pregnant?

[Polly]

Without charting or a test? No cheating!

[Brooke]

Are you? :D :D

[Lori]

Once, and it turned out I wasn't. ;) My intuition is apparently broken.

[freebiemom]

Yep, with all four kids, I knew. The one time I was and didn't "know" it until I was late and then tested was when I had my miscarriage. :(

[Tamika]

I did with Kaylyn - symptoms were identical to the baby I'd lost.

I just 'knew'.

Sooooo.........do you 'know'???

[Jbird]

Um, I knew two days before my missed period. Sore boobs and nausea, and just an intuition.

[Christine]

For a good several years, I "knew" every month. Apparently, when you're as fertile as I am, you scare easily. ;)

[Erika]

I "knew" a few times. And was either wrong or had a few missed pregnancies (which with my medical history is a definate possibility). Personally, I prefer to think I was wrong.

however, with Sasha, that was the one time I was sure I WASN'T pregnant.

So until I see a positive test, I won't believe any of my symptoms LOL

[Polly]

For the record, nope! Not pregnant! Not currently TTCing either. I'm still trying to undue the physical damage done the last time; I'm having shock wave therapy for my bone spurs in my feet (caused by pregnancy's rapid weight gain) and possible back surgery. So, sorry! Not right now.

OK, back to the topic. I had a weird dream right before I got a positive pregnancy test. I dreamt that the test didn't work and that it turned pink. Well, it was dead on. I took "First Response" and it didn't work: it gave me two lines two minutes too late. (CJ came home with bagfuls of EPTs which did work.) And obviously, DD is a girl.

The first time, no. We had been trying five months and this was the one month I figured was a lost cause. I only took a test so I could quit thinking about it and move on.

The second and third times, though, I kind of knew from the moment it happened. I kept telling myself, "I could be wrong!" but I pretty much knew what the test was going to say when I took it. Didn't stop me from having a mini-stroke both times, though. LOL

[Beka]

With Loki I knew- so much so i tested for around a week straight watching a line everyone else couldn't see get darker and darker!

With Jude I was so damned certain I wasn't David insisted I test and i recall saying to him "You have more chance of the pope being pregnant, I tell you what if i am you can have that playstation 2"... it was the most expensive pregnancy test I ever took :giggle

With Dylan I knew i felt "normal" for the first time since Jude's birth and I tested when i thought that normal for 9 of the last 12 months had been pregnant.

With Chase it was the violently vomitting everywhere on valentines day that prompted the testing 2 days later when i was still throwing up- that was a huge shock though as i was still insisting David had food poisoned me.

[Kristi]

Yes. I did with Caleb and Isabella. I didn't even test with Caleb til I was a few months along.

[Lisa]

The two I have I did not know. I was positive that I wasn't. The last 2 miscarriages I knew which is why I tested. I had no other reason to test. The first came back negative so I was a bit surprised when I had a miscarriage a few weeks later. The most recent one I just knew I was pregnant. It was still a shock as we weren't really ttc at the time but I knew.

[kcmomma]

I "knew" something wasn't right...and thought that I might be pregnant, especially since we weren't trying...
