No morning sickness? 4th pregnancy/vit b

Morning!

I am probably jinxing myself here but I am 6 weeks today and have no nausea. I have had 3 other pregnancies (one live birth) and all of which i felt almost immediately nauseous and by 6 weeks I was crippled with it.
Clear blue digital says 3+ weeks so no concerns re HCG.

I am also taking vitamin b complex and have been since we started trying - I have read this reduces nausea - can it really have been as simple as that or… could I be having a boy? What are your experiences?

so many questions!

I am almost 7 weeks. No sickness at all (yet)
I spoke to my mum and she said she was never really sick either .

my best friend wasn't sick with her boy but awfully sick with her girl!

Not sure on the Vit B complex as have no experience with that, but I'm in a similar situation to you. These first few weeks are always a worry aren't they? And it's so backwards that we kinda want a bit of morning sickness 🥴

Currently 5+6 with 4th pregnancy (first 2 were MCs and 3rd I had my son). So far I'm feeling a little sick in the mornings, some dry heaving and sometimes I feel a little nauseous in the evenings too but in the day I feel absolutely fine, can eat normally, go about my day as usual, etc. When I was pregnant with my son the nausea and sickness was all day and quite debilitating. I lost a lot of weight and felt food aversions to anything that wasn't Coco pops or salted crisps!

It's hard not to compare the two when realistically I know not every pregnancy will be the same! 🙈 Just trying to stay positive and keep telling myself worrying doesn't achieve anything or change the outcome.

It’s so hard not to compare isn’t it!
I am worried… I have booked a scan for 15th July I will be almost 9 weeks then, for some reassurance. My symptoms currently are - fatigue and mood swings (poor husband) but I am actually eating more than what I normally do 😂. My last pregnancy ended in September at 8 weeks and from conception I was up in the night feeling so sick I had to eat a slice of toast to off set the nausea…

You wait, tomorrow I will be struck with nausea and bed bound for 6 weeks!!

@Ems1992 So sorry for your previous losses, fingers crossed for this pregnancy and I hope your scan goes well!

I had early scans with my son but debating whether to or not in this pregnancy. Initially I did want to but now I'm not so sure. I think because going for a scan just fills me with anxiety still. My NHS 12 Week scan is 11th August which doesn't feel too far away at the moment but we will see!

You are a day behind me, my 12 week scan is also due that week - but in my area we have our booking appointment at 8 weeks and then they book our 12 week scan!
I had an early scan booked with my daughter and to be honest it was just a little blob so they are quite pointless but I like to know it’s in the “right place”. Fingers crossed all is good for the both of us :-)

My sickness started at 8'weeks. Really bad at 9'weeks still feeling nauseous now at 10 weeks.
I didn't have much symptoms at 6/7 weeks!
