Hi everyone!

I’m 7 weeks pregnant with my second baby! My first baby is 13 months old but it was a different pregnancy with her, I was drop dead tired, I once got told to go and have a nap at work because I fell asleep on my break without even realising, I had bad sickness for 6 months with her and my breasts where super tender!

This time however my boobs started off a bit sore but not enough to begin to bother me but now my boobs are fine my nipples are a tad sore but I only notice if I grab them and I’m bloated and tired but I’m sure being in lockdown we’re all bloated and tired! I pee on sticks every morning as reassurance but it would be good to hear people’s pregnancy symptoms I’ve heard sometimes people can carry girls differently to boys it’ll be interesting to see or even to know if having mild symptoms are normal and okay... never thought I’d wish for morning sickness Wink

Hi OP! I've been one of the lucky ones and barely suffered. The odd headache here and there and recently been getting out of breath, but I sailed through my first trimester, which I am eternally grateful for my body for treating itself so well 😂
Other than feeling totally knackered for my first 10 weeks (now 18 wks) I didn't feel pregnant at all.
Everything to date is healthy and baby is doing well so far!
I think everyone is different but I do believer you have different symptoms depending on whether it's a boy or a girl. Mi also believes that you carry similar to your mom.
My mom sailed through her pregnancies, but my friends mom suffered and so so did my best friend!

@lockdownpregnancy Very interesting actually! May how ask you how you are founding your pregnancy during lockdown as I know it’s going to be super different to the norm I have some anxiety about that so it could be helpful to hear from someone that’s ahead of me and going through it, if that okay with you obviously! Smile xx

With dd2 I didn't have any symptoms. I didn't find out that I was pregnant until I was 5mths.
I thought I had a kidney infection, I eventually made an appointment with my gp thinking I needed antibiotics.
I was in complete shock when he sent me to hospital for a scan.
I had a small bump at 9mths. I always thought how can someone not know they are pregnant. Dd1 was 23 so I never had any plans for another child. Fate had other plans🤣🤣

My first was pretty symptom less. I was tired and a bit tearful but not nauseous or anything else. The dc is a teenager now.

I have no symptoms at all during my pregnancy. Other than no period and the fact I kept peeing on sticks I had nothing. No sickness, no cravings, not really more tired than usual. About a week before she had to arrive I had sharp pains in my foof but that was at about 36 weeks 🤣

Of course it's ok to ask! That's what this forum is for! 😁
I suffer with anxiety and mild depression (not medicated) and I am finding isolation very difficult. I've been in my house 7 weeks and other than walking to dog, I haven't left my house. Some days are fine, others I really struggle. I've cried a lot, screamed at my DH and hid in my bedroom.
Other days I've been fine.
I think it's just one massive rollercoaster ride and the wonderful pregnancy hormones that we have swirling around us, will make everything more heightened. That's what I'm finding anyway.
I have my 20 week scan in a week and a half and I literally cannot wait, as it's a trip out the house! Haha! How sad is that! 😝
I'm hoping the government will cut us a little slack soon, so I will have a little more freedom!
Saying that I've purposely isolated myself away from everything, just to be on the safe side!
On line shopping is a wonderful thing! Lol x

I felt awful from start to finish with my DD, then with my first DS I felt fine and my second DS I felt fine apart from very mild sickness at the start and horrific heartburn near the end! I felt really good with my boys. I am pregnant with my 4th now around 5 weeks and I feel sick and tired and that's about it. Xx

I think it's normal for symptoms to vary between pregnancies.
I've actually done a post on this.
My first pregnancy, I felt horrendous from 2 days before my period to about 17 weeks. Nausea, dizzy, couldn't eat.
I'm 4 weeks pregnant, and barely any symptoms. I wouldn't know I'm pregnant if it wasn't for the tests.
Just feel a bit tired, Nipples are darker, but no sickness feeling (yet), just sometimes starving, sometimes no appetite.

Good luck with your pregnancy!
