Ok..for the past week ive been an emotional wreck, peeing like crazy, been bloated, and did i mention OVERemotional?? I am 6DPO and wanna know how quickly you started feeling symptoms of being pregnant. My husband and I had sex the day before ovulation and just really "feel" pregnant. I know that doesnt count, but its like I know. I have also been fatigued these past 3 days. Am i pregnant? (I know only a test will tell, but im going crazy as it is lol)

What can I do next?

I AM NOT CRAZY!! it was a positive :o)
Ok so just answering some questions on here, but DPO is days past ovulation. Today makes me 9DPO and still testing POSITIVE :o) YAY!! I am really excited. I am still bloated as ever, a lil bit gassy, fatigued (but nothing compared to my first pregnancy at least not yet), and yes i did too know that when we were done, that that was "the one" lol. Its so hard to explain, yet only a feeling that you yourself would feel. I am so emotional too its unbelievable. I heard the damn Titanic song and started tearing up. LOL!! But anyway, anyone who is trying to conceive, i highly recommend the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. A great way to get in tune with your body, and read its signals.

I think that the days that you have to wait until you can take a pregnancy test should count as a week each! I understand how crazy the waiting can make you. All of your symptoms could be easily explained as pregnancy, or as a eager mommy anticipating the possibility of pregnancy. It's hard not to get your hopes up... I know.

I never experienced actual pregnancy symptoms as early as what you are describing, but I really know the mental preoccupation and intense emotions you are going through. Particularly with my second pregnancy, I felt this way. I took one of those '4 days before your last period' tests, which turned out very faintly positive. The next morning, doubting my good fortune, I took another test, which was negative. With my emotions careening out of control, I took a test each morning for the next 2 days, both of which were negative. I was so sad, figuring I'd gotten a false positive. Turns out, the next day, the test was clearly positive, and now my little Guinevere is 2!

Anyway, I don't know if this helps, but I want you to know that you aren't the only one who goes a little nuts during this intense time. Hang in there!!!!!

Hey sweetie take the test, so you can calm down. Do you want to be pregnant? none of us can tell you if you are pregnant, take the test, and then lt us know. The symptoms are theri. My husband came home on Feb first from west pack 24 years ago by the second week in Febuary I was having morning sickness. I don't thibk you peeing like crazy would be a sign this early most of the pee like crazy is because you have a baby sitting on your bladder, but take the test. were all here for you. J.

I think the mind has a lot to do with symptoms. If you want to be pregnant you will feel pregnant. Like having someone in the home with a cold....after a day or two of watching them suffer you could swear that your throat is closing up or you have body pains, ya know.....same kind of thing. Take a test sweetie (heck take one a week) but don’t get too upset if you don’t get the result you are hoping for, at least you can have fun trying again. :0)

Peace~Love~Light

I knew within a couple of days after my second baby was conceived. My first baby was only 6 months old, so it hadn't been too long since I had been pregnant, and there was a very familiar, indescribable "feeling" in my body. I'm not one of those people that is really "in-tune" to their body, but I knew this feeling. Still, with the over-the-counter tests, I didn't get a possitive result until I was nearly 2 weeks late for my period. If you want some pregnancy tests that can test early, google "early pregnancy tests" and there is a test strip you can get online that is much more sensitive than the ones you get in the stores, so you can find out earlier.

I've never been pregnant so I have no idea how my body would react and your symptoms are very early. If your 6 days past ovulation would that make you only a week or two pregnant. I'm just a little confused and would really like to know how you knew so soon. Congratulations!!! I'll be looking forward to updates on your pregnancy and any weird or new things that come along with it. : )

Hello N. E, I'm not sure what 6DPO stands for, but I would say the best way to find out is to take a test. I took one this morning, and never thought it would come out positive, only because when I was pregnant with my two children, my HCG levels were so low, and I could not get a "positive" for 3 months into the pregnancy with each. My symptoms are fatigue (which is putting it mildly - I was/am sleeping about 18 hours a day), I have this horrible taste in my mouth, my stomach actually feels bloated (never experienced THAT before) but most of all, mmy breasts were not only sore and heavy, they are huge! Did I mention my feet already feel ever so slightly swollen? Weird symptoms. I knew right away, pretty much the moment we were "done", that that was the money shot right there, so to speak. With my son, I felt a fluttering, almost like a butterfly (a slow one) was trapped in my lower abdomen, which I felt within a month. Best of luck to you :)
