Worried because I *don't* feel sick!

I'm 6 weeks and 5 days (ish) pregnant. This is my first time and not sure what to expect. I had a tiny bit of bleeding a few days ago and have a scan booked at the epau tomorrow, but am terrified because I don't FEEL pregnant. I have slightly tender breasts but no nausea. Everywhere else you read that the nausea kicks in around 6 weeks, so the lack of it makes me thing the bleeding was probably a mc :-( Anyone else not had any nausea at this stage? Thanks.

I had a mmc with my first and had terrible morning sickness.

No sickness nor nausea with my second who is now a feisty threenager!

The only symptoms I had at that stage were sore boobs and a couple of instances of extreme tiredness. I had nausea so mild I would describe it as disinterest in food and it went away by week 12. My mum didn't have morning sickness with either my sister or I and I'm feeling really lucky I bypassed it all together. The scan was reassuring that there really was a baby in there! Hope it goes well for you docmcstuffins1

I didn't have nausea or anything at all, only real symptom was tender breasts and then extreme tiredness that kicked in about 8 weeks. I think at 6 weeks my tender breasts were on/off which worried me but all was fine.
I had a small bleed too and a scan which showed everything was fine and mine was around 6 weeks too. The dates did put me behind but they corrected themselves by the 12 week scan.

Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy Flowers

I'm currently in the middle of the worst sickness and exhaustion that I have ever experienced. Some days I feel like I can't continue feeling this anymore. I'm only 9 weeks.
I have to keep repeating to myself that it's only temporary and it will pass, but still it's awful.

Be careful what you wish for and enjoy it whilst it lasts - who knows, tomorrow it could kick in.

I'm 37 weeks and haven't had a single adverse symptom at all. No nausea, aching, mood swings...nada. Can honestly say I've never felt healthier!

Feeling a bit sorry for myself at the mo but that's only because I have an ear infection; nothing whatsoever to do with the baby. It's been a breeze. Some of us are just lucky, make the most of it! Grin

14 weeks & spent a lot of time up til 12week scan googling symptomless pregnancy! Absolutely nothing except fatigue & am quite a tired person anyway.
Got a horrible shock when I had a virus & thought it must be morning sickness kicking in; struggled into work, felt terrible so truly so relieved it wasn't & that I've been spared.

I've had 6 and no morning sickness with any of them.

Beccylee92 · 19/07/2015 20:03

I haven't felt any sickness at all I am now 27 weeks pregnant and still none just try and relax and enjoy being pregnant instead of worrying about all the signs everyone is different Wink

Wow, thanks for all the replies everyone. I'm now hoping I don't get any sickness for the next 7.5 months!
