Morning All

Just wanted to ask a question, when did all you pregnancy systems kick in?

I'm 5weeks + 1 day but other than being bloated and slight tender boobs I am feeling pretty normal.

I know it's early and I should be glad! But after 2 miscarriages my mind is playing it's games with me and feeling pretty anxious about everything.

Any stories you can share to reassure me!?

❤️🌈

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and if it wasn't for my giant bump I could have believed I wasn't pregnant at all - I've had no symptoms the whole pregnancy!

Try not to worry - as long as you're not bleeding then everything is probably fine.

I'm 8 weeks today and I only have sore boobs! I wouldn't worry, some of us are just lucky!

@newgirl14 I totally understand, I've had 2 mc and I'm currently 4 weeks pregnant and waiting for symptoms to start, but I also know I'm still really early as you are too, I'm sure they will come soon for us xx

Similar to you, I wished for some symptoms around week 5/6 so it could feel more 'real'. Week 12 and my nausea is beyond horrendous... be careful what you wish for 🙈🙈 not everyone gets symptoms through.

Hope you have a safe and healthy pregnancy ❤️

Thanks you all for your kind words and reassurance. Smile it is like wishing something I'm sure I'll be regretting in a few weeks!
Just nice to know we all have these thoughts.
I need to try and not get so worked up I know, what will be will be and it's out of my control. I think that's the hardest part!

I only ever had mild symptoms (some nausea but never sick, sore boobs - that was it really) and I didn’t experience those until 7 or 8 weeks.
