Q: How did you find out you were pregnant and when?

First time mommy. 22 weeks. Wanted to ask something fun. How did you gals find out you were pregnant and when???

I was in my 3rd week of freshman year at college and had been vomitting up my medication for about a week for my anxiety and ended up in an anxiety attack of sorts in my Pre-calculus class. They rushed me to the nearest hospital where they found out I had not misscarried both of the twins I had been pregnant with but only one and I had been experiencing early stages of morning sickness!!! 7 weeks along!!! :)

I had my pregnant friend over to visit and she kept looking at me funny and said 'don't take this the wrong way but i think your pregnant' i had a cheap test in the cupboard so said i will prove you wrong and went and done the test placed it infront of her and carried on making the tea she had this huge grin and said yep you are. I waited until the weekend and got myself a better test and it confirmed i was pregnant and said 5+ weeks im now 24 weeks and having a girl i cant wait i had tried for over a year with no luck and as soon as i stopped trying im pregnant lol can't wait now and my youngest is so excited :)

I was near my next period and felt a bit of cramping, like when your period hits, along with back pain. We had been trying a while and thought this was another negative but decided to grab a test and that night we found out I was pregnant. Turns out I was about 2 weeks along

I had been trying 25 months and had pretty much given up, we thought we'd give it one last go and decided that we would use concieve plus as well as ovaultion tests, we did the deed on the second night of a positive ovulation i was also due on on my 24th birthday so really didn't not have any hope of fallen pregnant. about a week before i was due i started to feel more hungry then i would normally, i used to be able to good pretty much all day without eatting then i would eat untill i was full and then an hour later i would be hungry again, i also noticed that i was a lot more tired then normal. because it was the evening i decided to use my last ovulation test i was due on in 4 days so didn't think an ovualtion test would come out as positive as it did. the next moring i decided to do a pregnancy test, my hubby was at work so he wasn't there while i did then test, i didn't think anything of it, to my surprise 3 days before my 24th birthday i finally got my BFP i am 26 weeks pregnant.

I went to the doctor because I felt funny and had weird discharge. She gave me a pelvic exam and said I need to take a pregnancy test, I was really shocked that she asked so I took one and she came back and said "well you're feeling this way because you're pregnant." I was 6 weeks. Now I'm 22 weeks pregnant with a baby boy! (:

I found out I was pregnant from my fiance actually. He was baking cinnomon rolls one morning, and I came running out yelling SUGAR!!!! He had noticed that aunt flow hadn't visited me, and that I was refusing to wear my bra, sore boobies. I didn't think much of it, my period was late most of the time, and it was normal for sore boobs. He set down the pan, looked at me with a crooke head, and said, "you're pregnant!" and started laughing. I thought no way. :) so, being a rather fun, and strange couple, we made a bet. we both went to the store, grabbed 2 pregnancy tests of our choice, and headed home. I thought, heck yeah, gonna show my man whose boss... so, i did the tests, handed him his two, and sat there with my two. in the meantime we were both laughing and joking about how cool it would be if so, but how irrational this was. well, his sticks both came back positive first, he just started laughing and jumping up and down! "i told you so" was a phrase i heard all d

with my first I kind of guessed as I always had a 28 day period on the dot, so when I went to 29 days I bought a 14 pound test (clear blue) negative, next day still no period so bought a 85pence test and got a very strong positive. with my second we planned so I kinda figured when I was a day late I may be so I done a test at the chemist and it was pos, with my third exact same a day late so done a home test, with my 4th I was having strange spotting so done a test positive at under 3 weeks ( lost that one at 11 weeks) with this one I felt really sick around week 3 and couldn't even look at ham but I had no money to test, so when I was 2 days late I got a test at the shops an was pregnant.

We decided we were ready to try to conceive in mid-June. Our 2 year wedding anniversary (5 years together)was Aug 1st. I suspected I was pregnant in the days leading up to our anniversary. Since we were both working the day of our anniversary and had a dinner planned together, the night before I decided to do a urine test at home, with my husband. It came up clearly positive. The next day we celebrated our anniversary and our pregnancy. This would have been about 3-4 days before I would have started AF.

We retested again a few days later. The following week I had a doc confirm the pregnancy. We waited until 3 months to tell anyone else (longest 3 months ever) and we are now 23 weeks along with a baby girl.

I had expected it to take months to conceive. My husband is an engineer and everything in life is planned out in detail. For months before we started trying I had been telling my husband he can't "engineer" a baby. But somehow he pulled it off all to hi

I found out at 3 weeks and 4 days after taking a pregnancy test. I thought I was out for that month, but I had been getting weird sharp pains in my uterus for a few days. It was a few days before my annual check-up with my doctor, and I thought those pains were something I should mention to him if it turned out I wasn't pregnant. But I was!

I found out at 3 weeks and 5 days by taking a pregnancy test. I had been noticing a lot of extra discharge which i never experienced in all my other ttc to cycles. I took a test one day and it was very very very faint. I couldn't wait, so i took one the next day after i got home from work and there was the line!
