7+6 no symptoms- worried

A week ago I had a good scan at 6+6, baby with a heartbeat. At that point I had sore boobs but they were wearing off and had had some mild nausea but no sickness. I have now got nothing- breasts fine, occasional tiredness and that's it. Don't feel pregnant in the slightest. Should I be worried? Tell me your experiences positive and negative, I have another scan in a week and I'm really scared.

Like you, I had some early breast tenderness that wore off. Since then I've just felt more tired than usual. I haven't felt pregnant really at any point. I had my twelve week scan today and everything looked fine. So you can have few symptoms and everything be ok!

BowKay · 01/06/2018 22:31

Thank you for replying that is reassuring. My boobs were sore and swollen and they're definitely deflating. I should be pleased because of last week's scan but I feel so utterly normal I just don't know what to think.

I didn't have any symptoms at all with ds1 apart from the obvious missed period. At that time you didn't have a scan till 20 weeks so apart from hearing his heartbeat at about 16 weeks at a midwife appointment I didn't feel pregnant at all. No bump till about 23 either. Ds2 I was sick pretty much straightaway, convinced he was a girl because my pregnancies were so different.

DirtyThirties · 02/06/2018 06:21

Please don't worry about this! When I first found I was pregnant I was convinced something was wrong as I had no symptoms and felt too "normal", the sickness kicked in around 11 weeks I think. I'm currently 32 weeks and everything is fine, have had very few symptoms throughout and a relatively easy pregnancy. Good luck OP, pregnancy is full of things to worry about but this doesn't have to be one of them Flowers

CurlyTwirlyTwos · 02/06/2018 08:25

I’m in the same boat OP, currently 7+5 and have 0 symptoms.

I am concerned as I KNEW I was pregnant before I took a test, my boobs were sore and sensitive, mild nausea and I was very tired.

This lasted until about week 6 and everything has completely disappeared. My booking appointment isn’t until Monday (8 weeks). I have called up to report concerns, but as I’m not bleeding or cramping nothing they can do.

This is my second pregnancy - 3 years ago I was so sick, and utterly exhausted. This time I forget that I’m pregnant, to the extent I think I might actually not be :(

I have booked a private scan for Sunday to check it out. I am really worried that nothing will be there, or everything stopped developing at 6 weeks (which is my suspicion). My convinced actually, but at least I can go to the booking appointment ‘armed’.

I even had a glass of wine last night.....

BowKay · 02/06/2018 08:28

@CurlyTwirlyTwos can you update after your scan? I'm in the same position. The only thing keeping me going is that I felt very few symptoms before the scan at 6+6 and everything was fine then.

CurlyTwirlyTwos · 02/06/2018 13:16

No probs @BowKay hopefully it’ll be good news, or it might not be.

It’s great you’ve already had a scan and heard a heartbeat! I’d imagine you’ll be very unlucky if things don’t go well now.

EyeDrops · 02/06/2018 13:52

Following as I feel exactly the same! I'm only 6+3 but just feel absolutely normal. A bit tired/achey but nothing much beyond what's normal. I'm hoping more symptoms will kick in soon, I'm really worrying about a mmc (though I've no reason I know).

Archie1982 · 02/06/2018 14:14

Please don’t worry - I didn’t really have any symptoms other than the missed period and tiredness...but I’ve always been a sleeper.

It’s quite common to not have much in the way of symptoms. I spoke to friends who were the same. I’ve actually only come across one or two who actually did have sickness or other symptoms!

I’m 18 weeks now all has been fine....if it was wasn’t for my growing belly at this point, I wouldn’t be able to tell.

Grumpos · 02/06/2018 16:43

Had lots of twinges and niggles in tummy very early on (as in weeks 4-6), after that nothing. Nada. Not a thing!

Bit of tiredness in month 4/5

Heartburn galore in month 6/7

Oh and boobs did grow but have now settled and aren’t painful, just cumbersome!

Not everyone gets sick, I’ve got been sick once. Not everyone gets cravings or aversions. Not everyone gets tired (god knows how!).

Congratulations!

BowKay · 02/06/2018 19:33

Your replies have calmed me down thank you. I suppose I have to stop going round in circles as I won't know anything until the scan but at the same time I shouldn't torture myself by assuming something has gone wrong.

Today I feel bloated and I've been getting lots of sharp twinges low down- I imagine where my uterus is?

FASH84 · 02/06/2018 23:21

I didn't even find out until just after eight weeks! Looking back I'd been weeing a bit more and had felt a bit tired and headachey, but I also had a bad cold so could've been that, my symptoms now at 12+3 come and go and some days I forget I'm even pregnant, then I suddenly feel shattered or fancy a strong coffee or a beer and remember I can't!

TheDisillusionedAnarchist · 03/06/2018 08:16

My last pregnancy (and only healthy one) I had zero symptoms. I spent my time googling missed miscarriage but healthy boy born at 39 weeks.

On the other hand with my DD who had trisomy 18 I was nauseous on and off until 12 weeks. My current pregnancy (8 weeks) is the worst yet for symptoms so now I’m convinced this one has an anomaly.

I think the truth is symptoms tell you nothing about the health of the pregnancy. The only concern is significant symptoms that suddenly disappear and even then it could be nothing.

SVRT19674 · 03/06/2018 08:28

I had no symptoms, no tiredness or sickness, nada. I'm 28 weeks along, didn't show at all until 24 weeks. Got some mild heartburn yesterday and my boobs have grown. That's it. This all women get sickness is rubbish, it's just that those that do make more fuss for obvious reasons. Enjoy your pregnancy!

Liz3891 · 03/06/2018 09:24

I'm 17 weeks. So far no symptoms at all besides missed period. I've gained about 1.5kg but I wouldn't have noticed if I weren't being weighed (i.e. hasn't changed my shape/clothes fit). No sickness, no nausea, no bump to speak of, no feeling baby, etc etc. I honestly wouldn't have a clue I was pregnant. Each time I go in for a scan/doppler I'm somewhat sketpical there is actually a baby inside. Not in the sense of worrying about miscarriage, but just disbelief that a human the size of an orange (or whatever) can be inside my body without me having a clue about it!

TLDR: Don't stress about symptoms!

BowKay · 03/06/2018 11:06

I keep coming back to your replies and reading them to calm myself down. A friend of mine has recently announced she is 13 weeks (no one knows I am pregnant yet apart from DH and my mum) and I was trying to casually ask her symptoms, she said she felt a bit nauseous for a week early on but that was it.

@CurlyTwirlyTwos thinking of you today and hoping your scan goes well.

CurlyTwirlyTwos · 03/06/2018 20:41

Hi @BowKay,

Updating you as promised. Sadly not good news, the scan it showed my uterus at 7+3 but an empty sac, so I’ve a blighted ovum.

I had pregnancy symptoms which disappeared over a week ago, like I previously posted I knew something was amiss compared to my pregnancy with my DD.

As you have seen your heartbeat, I’m sure that things will be fine for you.

All the best

BowKay · 03/06/2018 21:25

Hi @CurlyTwirlyTwos I'm so sorry to read that update. I had a blighted ovum with my first pregnancy it was a horrendous shock and so distressing. I hope you have someone there for support and recover as quickly as you can. Take care Thanks

MrsCrumbtious · 04/06/2018 06:55

Hey, this is my first pregnancy and have hardly had any symptoms (sore boobs which come and go and no sickness) I’ve had an early scan at 6 and 8 weeks and was convinced each time that it was going to be bad news but baby was there both times with a heartbeat 💗. I’ve got my 12 week scan Wednesday and apart from a growing tummy and a slight sicky feeling which has only started last week I’d still don’t feel pregnant!
No symptoms are just as common as a pregnancy full of symptoms 😉

Kocerhan3 · 04/06/2018 09:13

I feel like I could've written this post! I'm 6+4 and don't feel pregnant :( after miscarrying in Feb, it's scary to not have any symptoms - I sympathise with others on here feeling the same, we've got to be patient and have hope Thanks

BowKay · 06/06/2018 12:20

@MrsCrumbtious that's very reassuring- I have a scan on Friday when all being well I should be 8+6. This past week my boobs have been a little bit sore but not much and occasionally I have a mild feeling of nausea, especially I I haven't eaten for a while.

OP posts:
CrackersDontMatter · 08/06/2018 11:33

Just wanted to wish you well for your scan today. Hope it’s reassuring for you.

BowKay · 08/06/2018 13:45

Thank you @CrackersDontMatter

I have just got home and I am so relieved to say that everything went well and when the sonographer said "the baby is fine" I was so emotional. We even got to hear the heartbeat which was incredible, it actually felt very surreal.

I have been put back a day as two weeks ago I was 6+6 but today the baby is measuring 8+5 but the sonographer said as the measurements are so small at this stage it could change again at the dating scan.

They asked me how I was feeling and didn't seem worried about the lack of symptoms and just said to enjoy feeling well so that's what I'm going to try and do for now!

OP posts:
CrackersDontMatter · 08/06/2018 13:52

That’s lovely news! I’m so pleased it went well!

ellsbells90 · 08/06/2018 13:55

@bowkay - I had the same in my pregnancy. My boobs were killer from the start and bam they just went normal at 7 weeks. Trust me now at 17 weeks, enjoy it!! I had a few days of nothing and morning sickness hit me like a bus and I was fucked for about 5 weeks lol!

Some advice I got from my friend whos a midwife, loss of pregnancy symptoms are not a worry and are actually totally normal. Don't let 1 or 2 forums with negative outcomes make you think otherwise. The percentages are always in your favour.
