Early pregnancy symptoms - the truth!

I just wanted to post this thread as I've seen loads of posts on MN obsessing over pregnancy symptoms and people getting upset etc.

The truth is, everyone is different. And let me tell you how it was for me.

I was tracking ovulation as most do, but I did not have implantation bleeding. I did not have tugging sensations, cramps. I did not have sore boobs, veiny boobs or darkened nipples. I did not have bad skin, I did not have sickness. I literally had ZERO symptoms. I tested around 11dpo using a clear blue early test and an easy at home test. I had faint lines. I tested the next day and had more visible lines. I tested 12dpo to the day after my period would have been due using an FRER and that was always negative.

I am most definitely pregnant (15 weeks), so I just wanted to tell anyone reading this, please don't drive yourself mad symptom spotting. Please don't stress out thinking you don't have any symptoms so you must be out. Please just go with the flow and don't let the symptoms take over your life. I was that person and it was hard to actually believe I was pregnant with zero symptoms.

FWIW, I didn't start getting sore boobs until 2-3 weeks after AF was due. I didn't get any sickness until week 9 of pregnancy and I still don't have veiny boobs or bad skin.

❤️
