Not really showing any symptoms??

**Shokujo** · 02-12-2009 07:48

Ok, so on Sunday I took a HPT as my AF was 2 weeks late, and I was having a few sleeping probs.. The HPT was positive! Not quite beleiving it, I went to the doc on monday morning, who did another test, which turned out positive.. YAY - I'm 32 so pretty excited as this will be my first!

Only problem is, aside from occassional PMS like pains and no period, I haven't really shown any symptoms of pregnancy.. I haven't been sick, my breasts aren't tender or sore.. I have been feeling a bit hot & faint at work, but that could just be because i'm a waitress and they haven't fixed the air-con yet!!!

Anyway, I'm just wondering whether or not I should be concerned that I'm not really showing any symptoms of pregnancy, has anyone else had this? (by the way, my mum told me she never got any morning sickness in any of her pregnancies, and we all turned out ok...). Thanks

I dont think its anything to worry about at all..... I know many people who dont show symptoms of pregnancy. I got really sick for about one week and now i seem to be fine. But i was the same as you, thinking oh no I feel fine does that mean everything is ok.

You are lucky, so far anyway

You may suddenly get sick.... fingers crossed you dont. Just enjoy!!!

and

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Thanks Cazzie..

I've been trying for about 2 years, and have PCOS, so it definitely hasn't been an easy journey for me. I guess I'm just trying not to get my hopes up too high, even though I've seen the BFP lol.. Maybe once I get first scan, it'll seem more real!

I know what you mean it is hard not to worry... we have had some complications, now everything is looking perfect- I have an ultra sound every 2 weeks yet I still worry all the time lol..... I guess its all apart of being a mum

I keep saying to myself, ok, after the next ultra sound I wont worry any more LOL.

Keep me posted on how everything goes..... Do you know when you will have your first scan yet?

Firsty, congratulations.

I had no symptoms at all. No morning sickness or anything...i didn't even start to show until i was close to 30 weeks!

My first scan reassured me that everything was ok...then a few weeks later i started to worry until i heard baby's heartbeat on doppler...now, everytime i feel something weird i look forward to my Dr appointment to make sure baby is ok!!!
Yep im a worry wort! (this is our first as well)

I have only just started to feel pregnant with the belly and swollen feet and as you can see i only have just over 6 weeks to go! YAY!

Count yourself lucky your not getting morning sickness...i hear its not the nicest thing!!!

Goodluck with the rest of your pregnancy...and stop stessing lovely. I think i posted the same question on here when i first found out!

YAY YAY YAY - goodluck!

Hey, I've had absolutely no symptoms for my entire pregnancy either! Absolutely nothing except my baby bump forming and getting tired and sore in the last 2 weeks! It's nothing to worry about, different people react in different ways. Try not to worry!

Well, just got back from the docs.. blood test came out ok, HCG of 13,800 which I'm guessing is pretty good.. due date Jul 19 (though he said wont know totally until first scan is done).. so yay!

Thanks all, glad to see i'm not alone in not getting the symptoms! lol

Hi girls,

I am currently 6 weeks pregnant, and the only symptoms I have are some pulls and twinges in my belly, the occasional PMS type cramp, and metallic taste in my mouth. I am not sure my boobs are any bigger, they are a tiny bit sore.

today I had an early scan (because I had a m/c in June at 6w), but only saw a tiny blob on the screen, which FS could only just make out. he said too early to see anything have to come back Tuesday, when I will be 6w6d.

My HCG levels have been:
13dpo - 22
16dpo - 86
19dpo - 397
22dpo - 1826
26dpo - 4105

I am awaiting todays HCG results to compare.

Did anyone else have HCG levels that were slow to rise (from day 22-26 for eg) and still go on to have healthy bubs? And also see nothing at an early scan? The next 5 days are going to be so long......

Cheers

Shokujo, how many weeks are you since LMP? That number sounds good

**keys12** · 03-12-2009 13:24

hi ladies,
i also havent had any major symtoms so far

. at this stage i think i am about 5 weeks, going for blood test tomorrow to confirm everything. i have my first scan booked around xmas.

at this stage the only symptoms i am getting is slight dizziness, very tender (.Y.), i cant eat full meals, but have to eat about every 2 hours. other than that i dont really have anything else. thats why i am very anxious to get the blood test tomorrow to make sure it is all still real.

but dont worry if you are not getting any major symtoms, everyone goes through pregnancy very differently. and more than likely they will hit you very suddenly and you will remember this thread!!!

Good Luck
