What was the first sign that you knew you were pregnancy? Were you happy or scared? Who was the first person you told.

Usually my menstrual is quite on time, before I confirmed I was pregnant, my menstrual was about 2 day late, and I was having nauseas and not feeling well. But, when I went to visit a doctor, he said I can't test the pregnancy yet, as my menstrual was just 2 day late. I was still not feeling well after visiting the doctor, hence the next day I went and visited another doctor, and I did a pregnancy test there, and confirmed that I was pregnant! I was very excited when I knew the result, I was actually looking forward to have baby, as I just got married. I still remembered when the nurse looked at the pregnancy test kit, and told me I am pregnant, and asked if I was married. Perhaps I look a bit younger than my age. The first person that I told is of course my husband, as he's there with me. ^_^

Wow! That is weird that one doctor would not test you but the very next day another doctor would. It doesn't matter about how late you are as is you can conceive anytime early or later in your cycle. I guess some doctors just don't look at everything. It makes you feel a whole lot better being married. B/c OMG! the first time I was pregnant and not married it was like a walk of shame and I had to hold my happiness on the inside. B/c the doctors and nurses made you feel so embarrassed. That's why I never went to that office again. B/c no matter what a baby is a joy and you should never make a mother ashamed of her child.

With my first one I was about 3 months pregnant before I found out. I thought that I was pregnant really soon after I would have gotten pregnant. I took a test right before Christmas and I would have been just 3 or so weeks pregnant. It actually came up positive but I didn't think it did. The second line was so faint that I thought it only showed lightly because the whole thing was wet. So I went on like I wasn't pregnant. Then when in January my period still hadn't shown up I decided to take another one and actually took 2 more. The line was still light so I took a different kind and it was positive. I told my husband first and then told my mom. With my other two I pretty much knew right away because I felt sick.

For some reason I alway and I mean always knew when I was pregnant. I guess it was a mothers intuition :) But there was one test that I did take and it was also a faint line but on the test it says that even if the line is faint that it is positive. So I took it as just that and 9 months later had a beautiful health baby boy. I told my hubby first also. He was so happy all 5 times :)

When I first got pregnant, I freaked out a little bit. I was feeling sick for quite a long time especially the beginning, I just felt extremely tired and sleepy, I threw up and didn't want to eat BUT every woman is different, some might feel fine, some might get nausea. I was happy and very suprised and wanted to get healthy as soon as possible because I was under weight. The person we told was my mother.

My first pregnancy I freaked out as well. LOL! I guess that is a natural thing to do. I only felt sick on my last pregnancy, which was very weird. You would think your body would do that the first time @ not the 5th. Weird thing with my last pregnancy is that I was able to get all of the pregnancy lbs from all my previous pregnancy afterwards. OMG! I was so happy. But I am still working on getting rid of a few more pounds before I call it quits.

I think most of the women are feeling happy when her first pregnancy only few women whose pregnancy are forcefully like(after rape)or less age girl's pregnancy then the girl are not feeling happy. Still I have no experience of pregnancy.

When the first time that i knew that i'm pregnant the first person that i tell that i am pregnant is my husband and next to my parents then to my friends. I always feel dizzy at that time and always feel irritated. I don't want the smell of my perfume that i really love before and all i want is to sleep and eat. Actually i feel that i gain lot of laziness when i'm pregnant..
