How early did you "know" you were pregnant with your second (3rd, 4th...)

child prior to using a test? Ok I my husband and I have a daughter already. She's nearly two. We were trying to get pregnant this summer, but the attempt was short lived. We stopped "trying" when I decided to enroll in university to finally finish my degree.

This being said it is Murphy's law that one night we got a little carried away and sort of forgot we weren't really trying anymore and the proper precautions were not taken...ahem. Suffice it to say that it would not be entirely inconceivable that I am pregnant.

Now this was only 2-3 weeks ago. I'm still just shy of being able to test with the home kits and don't really want to spend the money on a doctor till I have a little more confirmation to my suspicions.

Again, already have a kid and I know the symptoms. So my question is...for your subsequent child(ren), how soon did you "know" without the aid of a pee test?

PS - I "knew" I was pregnant with my first at what turned out to be 5 weeks gestation...the pregnancy tests (yes, all four of them) confirmed it that night.

PPS - My current "symptoms" are frequent urination, tummy bloating (swelling...not to be confused with growth...just a little fluffier than before...this happened with my first as well - by the end of week 8 - it was back to normal before I started to actually show around week 16ish), craving similar (although slightly different) to my last pregnancy, and abnormal fatigue.

All of these things are easily explained but I have a feeling. When did you know? When did you start feeling the symptoms? Particularly on the subsequent pregnancies?
