12 week scan

I have my 12 week scan on Thursday, I haven't had any other scans, for some reason I'm just expecting the worse 🙃 I think it's because I've had very few symtoms compared to my previous pregnancies (only really had breast tenderness and tiredness, MAYBE a little bit more moody) I guess I'm just looking for reassurance from others that haven't had symtoms really and everything was okay?

Hi, I have my 12 week scan next week and im nervous. I had bad sickness with my 1st until around 15 weeks and this time the sickness stopped at 9 weeks and I've felt normal since. Im not helping myself by reading people's stories. My only symptom now is that my clothes are a little snugger!!

Good luck, im sure everything will be fine xx

I’m FTM, almost no symptoms apart from somewhat sore boobs and more gagging/belching, sometimes a bit of nausea. No throwing up or mood swings. Preference for food did change though. I thought my bHCG would be lower due to the lack of symptoms, but the results came back all ok with 2.2 bHCG. So I guess my body somehow just copes with hormones well… good luck to you both!

With my daughter I honestly wouldn't have even known I was pregnant until I had a bump, other than a feeling a bit more tired! Pregnancy affects everybody so differently. I wasn't sick with either of my babies!

So I have my 12 week scan in a couple of days and I guess I'm just feeling quite anxious? I'm still being sick and feeling nauseous even with anti emetics, breast soreness has lessened which I was expecting at this time and I've had no bleeding at all. So really I guess I'm asking if this all sounds about right? I know everyone is different, I'm at 13 and a half weeks and I'm not showing but I was already carrying some weight on my tummy pre pregnancy so I'm hoping it's just that it's going to take a bit longer to start showing because of that? Anyone who has been in a similar sort of place and can give me some reassurance that all was fine at their scan?
