Pregnant 7+1 symptoms

9 replies

Hello,

I know that so many people post on here RE lack of symptoms, and that every pregnancy is different.

I’m 7+1 and other than bigger boobs I don’t have any symptoms, I was exhausted around week 4-5 but that seems to have passed now. I do dry heave in the morning (not the most attractive) but no nausea etc.

ClearBlue tests are still showing me at 3+ but I know these aren’t the most reliable.

Is / has anyone been in a similar situation?

Xx

As you said, many people have v few symptoms. I am now week 12 and have had v little. I know early pregnancy is hard for anxiety but symptoms dont correlate to pregnancy success. The issue is the media is dominated by the stereotype of a vomiting pregnant lady when most people never vomit at all. Many arent even nauseated.

The only symptoms that matter are missing period (good) and bleeding or clots (potentially problematic)

Thank you for your response @TheDaydreamBelievers I had a MMC June 2019 and didn’t have symptoms then either so this time I am over thinking anything / everything. I know I should count myself lucky at this point. I have an early scan tomorrow which will make me 7+3 so hoping all is well x

I totally understand why youd feel worried! I was so anxious until my scan at 10 weeks. Hope tomorrow goes well tor you @Vogue1992 , my 12 week is tomorrow!

@TheDaydreamBelieversThank you, I will let you know how I get on. Have a wonderful 12 week scan, I can imagine it’s quite exciting as you get to see a lot more xx

Im 7+2 and symptoms have fluctuated, i have booked a private scan next week as my 12 week scan isnt till christmas eve and im too impatient

Hi @xoxochellexoxo congratulations, what type of symptoms have you been experiencing?

I had a private scan today, like you I was way too impatient to wait until the 12 week mark. Today puts me at 7+3 and there was a strong, healthy heartbeat. I couldn’t make out too much as far as the baby goes as it was an abdominal scan but I was assured everything looks as it should. I definitely recommend it for peace of mind x x

I'm 6+5 with barely any symptoms still except for tiredness. I had period like cramps around week 3/4 but they are gone now. No nausea at all yet. If it wasn't for a missed period and positive pregnancy tests I wouldn't believe I'm pregnant!

Although I did suddenly notice today that I've lost my obsession with coffee. I was normally one of those that needs 3-4 cups a day. When I was TTC I switched to mainly decaf to help things but I still needed that comfort of that wonderful taste of coffee first thing. Now I'm like meh, I can take it or leave it. So perhaps this is my food aversion so far.

Anyway I've booked a private scan for when I'm 10 weeks exactly. I considered booking it for earlier but I've read lots on here about it being too early even at 8 or 9 weeks (especially if you've dated yourself wrong which is always possible) to see much or hear a heartbeat which I think would drive me crazy!

@Vogue1992 iv had nausea and sickness on and off from 5 weeks and always tired, i dont always feel sick or have nausea it comes and goes, yeah i just want some reassurance that everything is as it should be
