The first time I was pregnant I just had 'a feeling'. My periods were really irregular at the time so I had no idea that I had missed a period by that point, but did a test the day after the 'feeling' and it was positive.
The second time morning sickness started at around 4 weeks, I didn't believe I was pregnant and actually just thought I had a stomach bug, until a week later a friend joked that I must be pregnant because I was vomiting so much. Did a test the next day and found out he was right.
I think it you're TTC its very easy to start perceiving symptoms that aren't really there but you never know, those could be symptoms.

Thanks for the input everyone. I appreciate it. Well, I think my mind was playing games on me, and my period came early this month also. Usually I'm pretty regular, but then again I've never paid this close attention also!

Hoping this month it will happen.
Since you are truly TTC have you looked into charting your fertility? Timing is everything. It's not terribly hard to learn (timing, temps, cervical mucus, understanding the human reproductive system). I used it for years, NOT to conceive, with 100% success.

Yeah, we tried to time it last month, but didn't have success this past month. I was about 5 days early, which is not normal for me. However, the last few weeks have been a little bit more stressful than usual (We just moved back from FL to CT, staying w/ his mom for a few months until we get new furniture - sold it all, wasn't worth it to bring it all up!) I need to look into the body temp too. I did look up info about the CM too. I did go off the pill about 4 months ago.
Thanks for the tips.... glad this method is working for you!
1st child wife was 6 weeks when we found out
2nd she was 9 weeks
3rd she was 7 weeks
4th she was 5 weeks we assumed she was a lot farther along but she is not almost 10 weeks. This has been her worst one yet...sick a lot,everything she eats she can't handle...fortunately 1st trimester is right around corner to ending!
With my first conception I knew the very morning following conception. I have no idea where I was at in my cycle in fact we were not trying, I was just young and broke, had no insurance at the time, went off the pill and we were using condoms. We were having some rough patches in our relationship, so we weren't getting intimate often. Well...the morning following a rare night of such, my breasts felt sore and weird. More weird than anything...just strange. I said out loud to him, I bet I'm pregnant. I just knew. And I was. There was no other particular reason to think it was so...I just felt it.
The second time I don't actually remember how I realized or how soon it was. Early in the pregnancy, I know, and while we weren't trying in the sense of charting fertility and all, I had figured that if I had one kid I wanted two, and didn't want a huge age gap between them, so I just went off of protection and let it happen...and it didn't take long.
Best wishes and good luck and all of that happy positive stuff!!
