How do you know when your pregant??
Hi Girls
I know it sounds daft, but me and hubby are planning our first baby.
I came off the pill last week and have been taking my folic acid, we are trying for a baby and its great knowing I'm not on the pill and it could happen at any time.
Anyway apart from the obvious, being late for your period, what are the other first symptoms of being pregnant.. my friend said her breasts became very tender and she knew she was pregnant even before she did a home pregnancy test..
How do you know??? Any ideas or advice, I'm so excited!!!
