Hi ladies Smile
This is my first pregnancy and I feel so strange about it all, of course I am excited like any other new mum should be, but I just don't "feel" pregnant.Sad
I found out I was pregnant when I was about 4/5 weeks, and really the only symptom I had was a missed period. I did also have sore boobs. But absolutely no morning sickness whatsoever!
Haven't really gone off anything - apart from coleslaw which I LOVED before I got pregnant.
Also did feel tired in the first few weeks, but I am now 12 weeks and my boobs hurt on and off - mainly when I wake up in the morning they're most sore.
Also have noticed the tips of my nipples are yellow sometimes, and then sometimes not, not sure what this could be?Hmm
I am dreading my first scan on Monday, just because I don't really feel pregnant and I so worried that they will say something is wrong, just cannot stop thinking about it Sad.

When I went to see my MW on my first appointment when I was about 9 weeks, she told me that the reason my boobs hurt only sometimes, is to do with surges of hormones in your body.
I do also have PCOS, so don't know if that has anything to do with not really feeling pregnant Hmm?
So, apart from the boobs occasionally hurting and my nipples changing to yellow sometimes Shock that's pretty much it, although I have also noticed that my appetite has increased, woke up at 3am this morning absolutely starving! Shock
I guess I'm just looking for some words of support or something because I just feel so strange knowing that my friends who have been pregnant have had terrible morning sickness and could hardly stay awake.
Hoping that my scan all goes OK on Monday!

Those are all pregnancy symptoms. I always got the yellow nipples.

I've had 3 children, and every single time I've been worried they'll tell me at my scan that my pregnancy is all in my head!
Try not to worry.

I had no symptoms at all apart from a little bit of constipation, and lots of people are the same, so try not to worry! I know it's hard to say (and I definitely ignored all similar advice). Hope everything is reassuring and lovely on Monday.

My boobs hurt on and off, I got no sickness. My only food aversion was chocolate and I didn't feel pregnant either. My DD is now 8 months :) The wait for the first scan is horrible whether you have symptoms or not, Hope all goes great on Monday :)
