Currently 15 weeks and since about week 12 I've just not felt very pregnant anymore!

I had horrible sickness and fatigue until week 12 which has now dropped off, boobs no longer sore, not as tired etc...

Other than a small bump and the odd cramp which I assume is stretching, I just feel fine.

My last scan was at 13.3w and everything was fine but it's making me uneasy considering I felt very pregnant a matter of weeks ago!

This seems very common for early in the second trimester. I certainly felt like this as I had no bump, no cramps and didnt really have any symptoms throughout the first trimester either. I found things started to ramp up again around week 18 so just enjoy feeling "normal" cause it wont last :)

19 weeks here and if I wasn’t feeling the occasional flutters I would think I wasn’t pregnant!
Same as you since 12/13 weeks.
Except for the unbearable eczema that I’ve never had and suddenly developed in the last 2 weeks 🙄

Very normal I think! Enjoy it before the 3rd trimester woes!

I'm 10 weeks and the thought of this gives me hope as I feel so flipping awful!!!

Yes, I had this, and was surprised how difficult I found it. Currently 24 weeks and being regularly kicked from the inside though! I was so relieved when I felt the kicking for the first time (I got it fairly early, just before the 20 week scan.)

I don't know if I have much advice - I struggled to be honest. All I could do was keep reminding myself that everything had been fine on the 12 week scan and I had no reason to worry.

I'm feeling this too!

16+6 and apart from a small-ish bump I don't feel pregnant at all. Not felt any movement yet (although I am not expecting to for another few weeks at least), so feel in limbo a little bit!

I am a bit sad that the 16 week appointments were cancelled due to covid as I would have loved to have heard the heartbeat if it was possible.

Going back to work in 2 weeks after WFH during lockdown and I hope I at least look a bit pregnant then...

This must be a regional thing because I still have mine next week?

I'm glad some of you feel the same anyway! I thought I couldn't wait to get rid of my first trimester symptoms but not I'm missing them a little just for the reassurance.

Anyone thought about getting a home Doppler?

My 16 week appointment was over the phone.

I've been warned home Dopplers can just make you feel more stressed as it's actually quite hard to find the heart beat.

I was exactly the same - didn’t feel pregnant at all until 20 weeks or so when I started feeling regular kicks.

Me! 100% this. I literally said this to my OH today that I don’t feel pregnant. I’ve had a constant headache for 12 weeks, heartburn for 6, sore boobs throughout, nausea and now at 14+6 - poof! Everything gone. I’m so scared it’s stopped growing in there, absolutely petrified. X
