9 weeks pregnant, no symtoms

Hiya,

So I'm 9 weeks pregnant tomorrow and find it difficult to believe I'm actually pregnant because I just don't feel it and have had no symtoms so far apart from I spot bleed every day...which has been so stressful! Iv had 2 scans so far, one at 7 weeks and the other at 8 weeks and both showed a happy little bean with a healthy heartbeat. My 12 week scan is 3 weeks away but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced spotting throughout their first trimester (mine started at 7 weeks and still goes on every day) midwife just says not to worry unless it gets heavier or I have painful cramps - which I do not. And also did many mums on here have no symtoms? Or maybe just spot bleeding like me and went onto have healthy children?
I try to busy my mind but it's so hard to believe that I am growing a human from scratch and can't feel it 🤣
If my periods were irregular I just wouldn't have a clue i was pregnant x

I have had the opposite. I am 8 weeks on Wednesday and for the last 2 and a bit weeks I have felt nothing but sick and tired. It's been like a two week hangover without the drinks. Smell aversion to anything strong.

Only one day of spotting and nothing else. If you doctors has said not to worry then I would take there advice although it's so super hard.

Aw that sucks! Hopefully you start feeling better soon. Maybe I should just relax and be grateful but I can't help wondering I'd everything is still okay if I haven't felt pregnant at all x

I didn't have any pregnancy symptoms, really - No morning sickness, no nausea, no additional tiredness. I don't think I really glowed in the second trimester either. I felt like me throughout, really! Got a bit achier in the third trimester and had to pee more, but that was about it.

Son is now 17 months old and absolutely healthy.

With my first I didn’t have any symptoms apart from some bleeding during the first trimester which got better by 9-10 weeks I think. He is nearly 2.

Now I’m nearly 10 weeks with my second and same lack of symptoms but randomly didn’t get any bleeding at all this time 🤷‍♀️

It’s crazy how differently our bodies can react. I know so many women who have awful sickness so I guess we just have to count ourselves luckily 🍀 there are a million reasons to worry in pregnancy but I read once (I think on a mumsnet thread) that you just have to surrender to the process. Babies will come how and when they want and there isn’t much at all we can do about it 😂

I didn't find out I was pregnant until 10 weeks because I started feeling sick and thought I had food poisoning. I had normal regular periods (just a bit lighter than usual) for first 3 months.
I had a very chubby and healthy DD which arrived on her due date

Aw that's good to know! Maybe some people are just incredibly lucky to not feel awful in the first trimester and I must just be one of those people. I just can't get my head around the fact I'm growing a baby and don't feel like I am 🙈

I'm 12 weeks, had no symptoms and all seems fine. It did concern me but feel I should be grateful for not feeling dreadful.
