I was thinking back on when I found out I was pregnant. It's really to cook to look back at the symptoms I recorded. I kept track of my periods with a <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.eve">period app</a> and was actually not trying to get pregnant. I always knew when I'd be ovulating though. Well...tmi...The hubs and I were just feeling extra frisky that week (as recorded) 😏 exactly 2 days after I supposedly ovulated, I started having vivid dreams. I thought it was odd but thought nothing much else of it since we weren't trying to get pregnant.

Well the dreams kept coming and coming. 6 days before my missed period I dreamt about a little girl who was homeless and very dirty. There was a group of people surrounding her and telling her no one would want her. When I walked by I looked at her and she was beautiful! I went up to her and hugged her. And then I said to everyone around, "all she needs is to be loved." And the dream ended. That was the first dream that made me think I was pregnant. Call me crazy, but the mothering instinct was way to strong....and I knew it. Right then I knew I was pregnant...6 days before my missed period.

5 days before my missed period; I dreamt I gave birth to a blue fish (yes, colors were detailed) and the first began swimming in a river. All of the sudden a sea monster came out of the water and killed my fish baby. You can laugh... I know it's weird. But as weird as it is, that was another tip-off. The next day I took a pregnancy test and it was faint positive. I'm now 26 weeks pregnant!

Did anyone else have moments that clued you in before you took a test...other than the well known sickness?
