Lack of sickness a bad omen? When did your sickness start?

[gemwhitt]

Hi Ladies, I'm new to the pregnancy posts. It's been really useful and reassuring reading through some of the previous posts, but I thought I'd start my own for answers to this very question.
I'm 6w+2d pregnant, due late December. But so far not a jot of pregnancy sickness/nausea, which is making me anxious that the pregnancy is not progressing as it should.
When did your sickness start? Did anyone have no sickness and then later a miscarriage?

No morning sickness, no nausea the first time and had a bouncing 10lb baby boy.

No morning sickness, very mild nausea the second time and had a bouncing 7.5lb baby girl.

First two pregnancies i had no morning sickness at all. No tiredness, no nausea, no pain...both babies went overdue (4 & 8 days) & were healthy & happy.

Currently on baby number 3 & knew i was pregnant because i was vomming my insides up from the start. 34+5 now, still on meds for nausea 😭 also got the excessive tiredness, the pain & generally feeling like crap. Hold on to no morning sickness, the alternative is wank 😂

I was sick twice during my pregnancy.

Once the morning of my dating scan (probably nerves/excitement).
Once when I cleaned the fridge out and found a mouldy avocado.

Very straightforward pregnancy, 3 month old baby is currently kicking away on his playmat.

According to old wives tales, less sickness means a boy. Not sure how or why they decided that, but lack of sickness itself is nothing to be concerned about! Any symptoms can and do come and go.

That old wives tale definitely lucked out for me haha 😂

I had no sickness or even nausea with my healthy son, then some nausea (no sickness) with my healthy daughter. X

I’m currently on pregnancy number two and have had HG both times. Starting at 3.5 weeks.

Roughly 20% of women get no nausea or vomiting yet have perfectly healthy pregnancies. Most women get some, intermittently and a couple of percent (lucky me) get very sick indeed.

You’re still very early - this isn’t the sign of anything bad. It’s likely you’ll get some, hopefully not terrible

I had two missed miscarriages, had sickness both times.
I've had one healthy pregnancy, which I didn't know about until I was 12 weeks because I'd had no symptoms.
So for me, no sickness was an indicator of a healthy pregnancy.

Not one single instance of sickness, currently 29 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby girls

My mother was hospitalised for sickness for both her pregnancies. I got sick exactly once during mine. No real nausea at all. Had a very straightforward pregnancy.

The only pregnancy I had sickness with I miscarried at 8 weeks.

Even when carrying twins I had no nausea, in fact I had very few symptoms at all.

I felt the same around the same time you are now...until 8 ish weeks when I started being sick every evening till around 21 weeks but it stopped after that and at least it was the evening so didn't affect work. Horrid though!

I had no symptoms in my first pregnancy and had a baby girl. Two years later the same again and I was carrying twins! I was convinced I could not be pregnant and when I discovered it was twins, was astounded. I have never remotely suffered from morning sickness. It really is no indication.

I had no sickness at all and a really straightforward pregnancy, so I don’t think lack of sickness is anything to worry about in itself.

I didn't have any sickness or feeling nauseous at all OP

No sickness here at all! 23 weeks and hoping it stays this way.
Brushing my teeth before eating breakfast is always a little bit icky but as for proper morning sickness or nausea- nope!
Hopefully you’ll be lucky and dodge it!

No sickness here either!

Never had sickness, 23 weeks pregnant now. 30% of women are in the same boat. If your system is tolerant of rising hormone levels, just embrace and rejoice.

Another with no sickness whatsoever. 13 weeks now, had my scan and all was good. Wasn’t with my first either really, maybe a few times. Maybe it runs in the genes as my mum was never sick with us either!

I've had 3 babies. No sickness at all with any of them until I went into labour with the last one

I have been sick once, when I opened the dishwasher and it stank of ketchup. I'm almost 12 weeks.

I had three big healthy baby boys and not a single day of sickness.

I had no sickness or even nausea whatsoever. No heartburn. I had a really easy pregnancy, and a healthy son born at 38 weeks.

I didn’t have any nausea with my two DD’s, they are 5 and 6 and very healthy.

I had no sickness or nausea with either of mine. Both straightforward pregnancies and births and two healthy babies.

I have been horribly sick round the clock for all my pregnancies, from week 3 or 4. I have had 3 healthy babies but lost DC4 at 18 weeks. I was not less sick.
I am 7 weeks pregnant with DC5 and I have lost over 20lb so far, but it does not reassure me. Enjoy your sickness-free pregnancy!
