I posted a few weeks ago about having absolutely no pregnancy symptoms and I know it can be normal. But I'm now almost eight weeks and I still don't have a single symptom, whereas my last pregnancies I was riddled at this point.
I'm feeling really anxious and concerned about it so looking for positive stories from others who've had a complete lack of symptoms?
I have an early scan next week so trying to get myself through until then 🙏

Hi,

I have no symptoms at all (no nausea or vomiting and no cravings) at 8 weeks +5, and had some light bleeding throughout week 6, but I had an early scan at 6weeks+5, we saw a heartbeat and all was looking great.

My mum also had no symptoms at all throughout either early stage of her two (successful!) pregnancies; it does happen!

Crossing fingers for you!

I had no symptoms at all with my last pregnancy and he was a 10lb baby perfectly healthy.
This pregnancy also no symptoms. 12 week scan went fine and baby is kicking away at moment!

I've had three pregnancies in total. The first two I had nausea, metallic taste in mouth, tiredness etc. Both these ended as MMC.
My third pregnancy I had no symptoms at all. Got to twelve weeks before realising I hadn't had a period for a while and took a test (we'd sort of given up after the two miscarriages, as I wasn't getting any younger).
DS is now seventeen...

Same here, very little symptoms at all but have had successful scans at 6+2 and 7+5, still worrying me though so I'm going to get a scan on Thursday to check all is OK.

I am currently 35weeks pregnant and had no symptoms in first trimester. symptoms don’t determine the viability of pregnancy I had other pregnancy’s with strong symptoms ended in MMC.
completely get your anxiety as this always worried me in first trimester and had to keep telling myself symptoms don’t mean anything! I look back now and feel grateful for not having any as managed to keep active ect.
hope rest of pregnancy treats you well xxx

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and I haven't had a single symptom this whole pregnancy, apart from sore breasts in the first trimester. Same thing with one of my sisters. I'm also part of a pregnancy chat here on Mumsnet and a lot of us didn't have any symptoms at all.

Now the only thing happening is that I'm enjoying my baby karate kick me from the inside all day.

There's honestly nothing to worry about. I was quite happy about it to be honest.

No early symptoms on either of my pregnancies, got quite a lot of fatigue and pelvic girdle pain later on with my second. Both healthy babies. Good luck.

Hi @DecemberRose19. I'm also alarmed at how good I'm feeling for 8 weeks pregnant. My breasts are a lot bigger but not tender really. I can eat what ever I want which is very different to my first pregnancy. I had a scan at 6 weeks 6days and saw a heart beat. I have another scan booked for Saturday when I'll be 8 weeks 3 days so I can keep you posted if you like

No symptoms at all in either of my pregnancies. It's more normal than you think.
