Hiya! :)

I’m 5 weeks pregnant with second baby, we currently have a 12 month old. I remember feeling absolutely terrible in my first pregnancy but I can’t remember from what week it hit me!

Anyone else 5 weeks and pretty much feel normal? I’m a big overthinker, just want all to be well! X

I felt normal until 9 weeks then had sickness until 22 weeks! Congratulations

I felt normal until about 9 weeks, then was wishing it had stayed that way with quite bad nausea and throwing up in weeks 11 and 12 in particular! I was always told if you don't get sickness by 8 weeks, then you won't get it at all. That was not true for me at all!

I'm the same, week 7 now of number 2 and feel fine, I was really sick by week 5 with number 1. GP says, it might come yet!, it might not come at all as all pregnancies are different, or maybe I am having a girl (first is a boy) this time and the hormones might not effect me the same as last time!

I am 5 weeks pregnant and feeling relatively normal as well! Almost waiting for symptoms to show so I can know things are progressing

Ah this is the same as me, my 1st is a boy and I was so spotty and felt sick from around 7weeks onwards. But this time round my skin is absolutely fine, I’ve had mild cramps which I know to be normal but nothing else, but I guess I am only 5 weeks - maybe it will hit me like a tonne of bricks in the coming weeks!

I can absolutely sympathise with you on that, the waiting game makes me so anxious! I’ve actually booked for an early scan at 8 weeks just for peace of mind! Congratulations to you! X

Yes, I wasn’t trying and had no idea I was pregnant until I couldn’t do my jeans up! Even felt like my period was due. - Unfortunately that period feeling lasted my entire pregnancy, but that’s a different story!
CongratulationsFlowers enjoy!
