I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow according to my LMP. I just wanted to know when would I start to feel pregnant and have symptoms. I'm beginning to worry now I feel exactly the same as I always do.

Sometimes I feel that I'm getting out of breath quickly or I'm bloated. Not sure if these are pregnancy or just all in my head. Oh and also my nipples are tender.

Would love to hear your experiences?

I could have posted this. I am nearly 5 weeks and did have a small amount of breast tenderness but it has gone. I also feel out of breath more and have lost my appetite but other than that I feel the same.

I've been worrying too and googling, I found lots of posts to suggest this is the norm.

Years ago women didn't know they were pregnant until they'd missed 2-3 periods, it's entirely normal to feel nnormal, there isn't a specific pregnant feeling. I'd take feeling normal over constant nausea tbh!

I got really tired around 10 weeks for a week or two, then some headaches at week 16, but other than that, nothing! Currently 18 weeks pg. I'm aware that I've been incredibly lucky to escape the nausea etc, but it's been very weird not to feel very different. So it's not guaranteed that you'll get many symptoms at all!

6 weeks isn't that far along so don't get caught up wishing for symptoms. You'll be wishing them away once they kick in soon. I had twins at the beginning of the year and everyone says sickness and weight gain start almost immediately for them and all I had was a bit of nausea at about 2 months.
Enjoy being pregnant and looking forward to a little one joining you soon

Thanks for all your responses. Sounds like i need to appreciate this symptom and not overthink or worry. Good to hear other people feel the same as me too.
