6 weeks pregnant but no symptoms... Worried!

[Poppy2764]

Hi all,
So I found out last week that I was pregnant (yay!) after 12 months of trying after a mc in Dec 21 :-(
I have done a few tests, 2 on Cbfm and then the cheapie Hcg tests (about 6 haha), I've had good, strong lines but I'm starting to panic they've not got any darker and I don't feel pregnant at all! I have been feeling a bit nauseous (more likely anxiety) and a few cramps here and there but nothing really.
I'm really anxious about this and just want to feel something.. Does anyone have any words of wisdom about their experience please?

Hi! I had zero symptoms at that stage, and luckily that continued to be the case with sickness. The boob pain though, that started soon after we went for a private scan at 8 weeks to reassure ourselves as I'd had a chemical previously. Can you do the same?

I had no symptoms at 6 weeks. Boob pain maybe, but I get that on my period.

I had no symptoms at all with my first and second, and was just extra sleepy with the third. No sickness or nausea, no tenderness, craved salt with the middle one though and ate a lot of Marmite and crisps.

I had no symptoms at this stage. 2 weeks later though 😓

Awww thank you ladies.. That is reassuring. My previous pregnancy ended at around 5.5 weeks so everything just scares me. I know there's absolutely nothing I can do though and what will be will be!

You aren't guaranteed symptoms! The only symptom I had in the first few weeks was a missed period!
I'd take it as a positive, do you really want to feel unwell?

No, I don't. You're absolutely right. Thanks for responding.

My symptoms didn’t kick in until around week 8 and even then they were mild. It’s different for everyone! One of my friends was very poorly from about 4 weeks while another barely felt she was pregnant (apart from no periods) until her bump appeared. It’s a very individual thing.

Thanks for your reply! Yes, hoping to get an early one done :-)

I had three pregnancies (two were losses, third ongoing) and didn't get typical pregnancy symptoms with either. There's so much 'symptom spotting ' etc on here and people panicking if their symptoms ease off a bit. It's hard to not let this get into your head. In early pregnancy, I tried to step away from Mumsnet as much as possible. It's estimated 30% of people don't experience pregnancy symptoms, and you might be one of them. Please don't let this worry you x

Oh bless you. It's so hard isn't it. It's perfectly normal to not feel any different atm though. I remember feeling the same and even being grateful for morning sickness! I think my symptoms properly kicked in about week 8. Xx

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond ladies. I'm trying to be chilled about it all :-)

I just wanted to update this thread for anyone worried about the same.
My symptoms were mild throughout my whole pregnancy really and now I have a beautiful 3 month old baby boy!
just goes to show that everyone os different and lack of symptoms really doesn’t mean anything, it’s just lucky!

@Poppy2764 lovely to hear and so glad your little Boy arrived safely! 🥰 Currently 6+4 with very mild symptoms and extra anxious after 3 losses this year 😔 Hoping that this one will be my rainbow 🙏🏼🌈💕
