Reassurance needed … no symptoms

[Meg310532]

I am 9 weeks pregnant and I have had next to no symptoms, im on cyclogest so have had some bloating. But I haven’t had any sickness/nausea/tiredness/heightened smell/cravings etc. The only thing has been waking up with a bit of a headache. I had a chemical in November so I’m just so worried. I had a early reassurance scan at 6 weeks where they saw the flicker of heartbeat but it’s been 3 weeks since then and lack of symptoms worry me- just looking for some reassurance please

I had nothing up till 7 weeks and started being sick for only 2 weeks then it stopped which worried me also and it was also 3 weeks from my last scan.

I then had my dating scan 3 days ago and everything was absolutely fine! But I completely understand how you feel I have 0 symptoms myself and currently just over 12 weeks. They will come and then they stop again I hope your okay OP xx

Some people's bodies cope with hormonal fluctuations quite well and don't get symptoms. I know of quite a few people who had no symptoms at all. The sickness can be awful, so thankfully you are not experiencing that. One of my friends didn't find out she was pregnant until 10 weeks because she had no symptoms whatsoever.

It's hard in the early stages. You want to just get to that 12 week mark to have the scan, and it seems to take forever.

@Meg310532 I totally understand where you're coming from, I was exactly the same on progesterone but v little symptoms. Only some food aversion and sore boobs which I think was down to progesterone pessaries.

Can you book a private scan to tide you over to 12 week scan? I found those so reassuring with having 3 losses previous.

I had no symptoms and am now 38 weeks it's not uncommon at all you just hear about the people that unfortunately have it pretty bad and TV programmes/films make us all expect to be sick/tired etc. It's no reflection at all on a healthy pregnancy, we are IVF so had a couple of early scans which really helped with reassurance.

I am exactly the same, I did have sore boobs and bloating from 5-7 weeks and then overnight that disappeared. Now 9 weeks and I'm definitely feeling something but none of the 'traditional' symptoms. It is unsettling but I've read so many threads online of people the same who had perfectly healthy babies, so trying not to feel to anxious!

Congratulations on your pregnancy.
My pregnancy was an IVF pregnancy and I was completely symptom free (no sore boobs/sickness/tiredness etc) to the point I didn’t actually feel pregnant. I had numerous scans as I was constantly fretting about this.
I started to feel pregnant probably the last 6 weeks of the pregnancy mainly due to the extra weight being carried. Even then the only symptom I had was breathlessness and struggle with sleep but both due to weight gain.

Thank you all so much ! This is so reassuring to hear. The 12 week scan really does feel like the longest period of my life haha ! Fingers crossed everyhing os okay and thank you so much again x

I am 25 weeks now and honestly I’ve not had any symptoms the whole time. Maybe felt sick for ten mins a few days but nothing typical.
Dont worry yourself until there is any reason to, no news can still be good news ☺️ it is hard to get used to having no symptoms but when you hear how hard it is for other people sometimes it is a blessing!
