I don't feel pregnant

Found out last Sunday that I am pregnant after taking clear blue test and it saying 3+. Me and my partner are over the moon as we have been trying for over a year and had a miscarriage exactly this time last year! Going by the date of my last period I am approx 9 weeks but I haven't had any symptoms at all!

I found out I had a water infection the day after my bfp so the tablets for that have made me very thirsty and needing the loo 20 times a day but now they are nearly finished that has stopped. I haven't had any nausea whatsoever. I work 40+ hours a week so I'm always tired. All I have had is sore breasts and some stomach cramps which feel like I am going to come on my period.

I'm so worried that I should be feeling more pregnant than this by now! My first midwife appointment isn't until next week and my first scan will be booked then so a good few weeks until I will get to see my baby and I can't help but think something isn't right.

Anybody else 9 weeks and no symptoms?

I had so few symptoms in my whole pregnancy so please don't worry! I opted for a private early scan to put my mind at rest. However you are just a lucky one like I was with very mild symptoms! :)

Don’t worry. Lack of symptoms doesn’t necessarily mean anything! I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks and my boobs deflated and my constipation stopped. Next pregnancy when my boobs went smaller about 10 weeks and no longer hurt I was really worried. Had a healthy baby in the end. Symptoms can come and go, some have worse symptoms, others not. This time round I have very little symptoms- I’m constipated again. But this time my boobs don’t hurt, not have they got bigger- probs cos I’m currently b feeding 8 month old. And I’m so sleep deprived that I can’t work out if I’ve got first trimester tiredness or not (I got this last time)

And... you do have symptoms- sore breasts and tiredness.
Like me you probably cant differentiate first trimester tiredness from actual tiredness.

If you're worried you could get an early scan- might put your mind at rest- esp after your miscarriage.

I didn't feel pregnant at all throughout my 2nd pregnancy....my twins are currently creating havoc upstairs - good luck :)

I didn't feel pregnant for ages. My nausea kicked in at 8/9 weeks but apart from that I had no symptoms at all. Sickness finally went away around 17 weeks and I spent another month or so not believing I was pregnant! Dont worry it's different for everyone x

Wow you are I could be twins (almost)

I had a missed miscarriage June 2017. I found out the Tuesday before last that I was pregnant and I believe I'm now 12 weeks 4 days.

Clearblue also said 3+ and apart from sore boobs (sometimes they go like concrete bags and then others they're just slightly tender) I don't "feel" pregnant but I have no idea how to I'm mean to feel...!

I have my first scan Wednesday so fingers crossed is all ok but it's naturally a worrying time xx
