Eight weeks pregnant with few symptoms and feeling a bit anxious

Im currently 8 weeks pregnant with my first. Aside from a slight change in sleeping patterns (waking earlier and a bit more tired) Ive not had any of the symptoms people usually have such as morning sickness etc.

Therefore Ive been taking a pregnancy test every other day to ensure I still am expecting! Is this normal/or is morning sickness still to come?

I count myself very lucky so far but just hope everything is OK! Anyone else the same or was the same!?

I never had morning sickness on either of my pregnancies.

Totally normal, not everyone gets a huge array of symptoms. Like you said, count yourself lucky! Morning sickness can be debilitating. Mine kicked in at 8.5 weeks until 11 weeks, during which I had to take anti sickness meds. Perhaps you could book yourself a private early scan to reassure you, and save you keep peeing on tests!
