To be concerned at zero cramps or pulling?

This is my third pregnancy, first two I had cramps and pulls when I sneezed or coughed from positive to 8 weeks.

4 weeks 4 days and I’ve felt nothing since the day of positive test when I had some pupling and cramping (found out 3w5d)

im concerned the stark difference and complete lack of even a single pulling sensation might mean there’s no growth.
i know every pregnancy is different but then why did I feel it at the beginning now stopped?
many thanks for any advice :(

To be fair, on the third time around everything has stretched a bit, so I think a lack of pulling etc is fine. Plus as you said, all pregnancies are different

I’m hoping this is all it is. But there’s a 7 year gap between my last pregnancy and this one so I’d have thought it might need to stretch out a bit again :(

Well if it’s any consolation I don’t remember having crampy pains with my eldest, and now I’m having these pains I’m worried something is wrong 🥲 moral of the story is every pregnancy is different and we will worry no matter what the symptoms (or lack of) are 😃 I’m exactly a week behind you and finding myself quite anxious this time round x

Thank you, I hope we both get a great outcome. It’s so hard not to worry
