My last baby was a while ago so can’t quite remember. I definitely had lots of hunger and nausea at some point in the first trimester. I was also incredibly tired.

I’m five weeks and don’t think I have any symptoms yet. I’m quite tired but that may be because I’m avoiding caffeine and have an energetic child to look after! I hope it’s not a bad sign.

With my second I had no symptoms at all, she’s absolutely perfect. You’re just lucky.

First one I had nausea from day one (it's what prompted me to take a test)

Second, I was telling people at 6/7 weeks that if never had more energy! Then at 8 weeks I was completely knocked sideways

6-7 weeks, very mild symptoms - nausia, crap. 7+ weeks, ALL the tiredness, sickness and nausia until 16 weeks.

About 6 or 7 weeks

1st one had symptoms before I'd even missed my period, sore boobs and extreme tiredness, sickness started about week 6 until week 16

2nd (currently pregnant) I was 3 days late so I did a test, didn't get a single symptom until 6/7 weeks, even then they were minor and not that obvious but then dry heaving & sickness came in around week 8

Second pregnancy has just been the complete opposite of what the first was! It's so strange, even the way my boobs hurt is different to the 1st time 😂

About 7 weeks I think and then week 9 hit me like a ton of bricks. Please try not to worry, you’re still very early and I’m sure symptoms will kick in soon.

Hi @BiscuitLover3678 I’m about five weeks I think and I have not really had any symptoms… I was wondering if yours have kicked in?

I feel a bit sick and tired but it could easily be running around after a toddler tbh! I’m over 7 weeks now. I probably feel more sick than I did at 5 weeks so hang in there!

Hey, @BiscuitLover3678 thanks for replying, I’m just constantly symptom spotting and worrying that I don’t feel sick… feels like so long to wait for the first appointment
hope all is going well for you

First sign very soon after missing a period was tingling in right boob. No nausea or anything else to speak of. Had exactly the same tingling with dd2.
