How Do You Know?
For me, I never had a 'feeling' that I was pregnant. I've had friends that tell me they knew after having sex that they were pregnant. I don't know if I believe it but they swear it's true. I'm 10 weeks along and the only reason I found out I was pregnant was because friends asked us to go out for drinks. I was expecting my period any day so I took a test just to make sure. I didn't want to consume a lot of alcohol if I happened to be pregnant. I took a test and it was negative so I drank. The next day was thanksgiving and I knew we'd be drinking again. I took another test -- just to make sure -- this time it was positive. The only physical sign I had was that the left side of my left breast felt brused but I figured that's all it was--a bruise. Eventually of course the soreness developed more and now it hurts to get out of bed, but really, that's all I felt! In fact I still don't have that special bonding feeling. I don't think i'm letting myself until the 4th month...
Good luck!
:d

I don't know, I kind of knew that I was but I can't quite say when I knew. Whenever I was late before I would always run right out and buy a pregnancy test to make sure I wasn't but this time it was different. I did not want to take the test because I knew what it was going to say and I didn't want to admit that things were about to change. My husband actually bought the test when we were on the way back from wendy's and made me take it. It wasn't quite that I felt different it was just that I didn't feel the same. And I couldn't stand to eat rice bowls. At first I just thought they were bad but then I just knew the real reason.
