Eye Twitching..?

[Pebbles]

Ok this is probably the strangest question I have ever asked anyone but I had an eye twitch on and off all last week and then today it has been happening for the whole day! It is extremely annoying and I mentioned it to one of my friends, she said that she had eye twitching on and off for the first few weeks of her pregnancy.
Has anyone ever heard of eye twitching in early pregnancy..? :confused:

not to sure about it being related to pregnancy, i get it if i dont get enough sleep...

[Pebbles]

Thanks MyLilBlondie. I have never had this before. And lately I have been sleeping like a baby so I dont think it is that. Although I do feel pretty tired today which is weird since I slept well last night and I even went to bed early. But maybe you could be right, maybe it is from being tired...
I dont think I am pregnant as I havent had first AF after m/c yet and I dont usually ovulate naturally so without Clomid it is unlikely I would fall pregnant but I thought it couldnt hurt to check what all you guys think anyways!

please dont get me wrong, im sure theres a definate chance it could be realted to pregnancy!!!

and hey im the early weeks we get extremely tired no matter how much sleep we get!

keep an eye out for more symptoms and let us know how u go :thumbsup:

:fingerscrossed: for u! :hugs:

Thought I'd but in and say that my eye has been twitching like mad today too. I'm almost 15 weeks p/g, but this is the first time I've had it, so can't provide much support for the early p/g theory.

Hehe, thanks girls! This is the weirdest Thread I have ever started. Hopefully it can put a smile on some faces!

I will let ya's know how my eye goes!

My sil and I get this often and I haven't had any since I got preggars and sil is not preggars. So I think it is just a thing that happens!

Just wanted to say that I get this sometimes too, have since I was teenager and it is supposed to be caused by stress. (I first got it when I was doing the HSC)

Don't know if this is definately true, but it could also be from being over-tired! (this usually happens when you are stressed anyway!)

:fingerscrossed: you are preggers anyway!

Oh gawd I hope not LOL my eye's been twitching for days now!

But in your case I hope it is!

This thread takes me back! I posted the exact same query in my first weeks of pregnancy, he he, I felt like a bit of a dope! :o
But I don't usually get it, and got it heaps for a few days... I then got the same sensation down near my ovary.

[Pebbles]

Hi there BlueGin! You never fail to make me smile! I have Googled it and there is actually quite a few women out there that have asked the same question so I dont feel so silly now!
Thanks for your responses girls!

[angeltoes]

That is weird. I had an eye twitch that lasted for days last week. I thought I was probably tired too. But I was 'just' pregnant (4wks) - maybe it was that?! Didn't have it with DS though.

:D glad to offer my services ;), how long till testing time?

Wow - have never heard of this one before. But I guess it would be caused by the same thing that causes leg cramps in pregnancy as well? Its hard not to read into it too much - I get muscle twitches every now and then (including eye), but then again, if other women have had it as an early pg symptom, who knows?? Hoping for you Pebbles! I have heard that women tend to be more fertile after a m/c...so maybe you O'd on your own??

Good luck! :) You deserve a BFP!

Eye twitching can also be an imbalance with magnesium/calcium which can happen also at times of stress.

I had the eye twitch too (no, that's not where I got my user name from!) It didn't stop til I was about 4 months pg. Haven't had it since then. It was really bad at the start and I used to think ppl could see it when I was talking to to them :o

Hi Girls, I just wanted to bring this Thread back up to the front as I was just thinking about early pregnancy symptoms and I realised that I had this eye twitch thing around 2 weeks after I conceived. Of course I cant prove that it has anything at all to do with my pregnancy but I had it again a bit last night and I have never had it before I was pregnant. So maybe it is a sign. So if any of you TTC girls get an eye twitch go POAS quick!! :D
