Hi all, just looking for some reassurance, please be kind.

Today I am 18dpo and 4.6 weeks pregnant. Very early days I know. I have had positive tests for the past week and no period.

I have no symptoms at all. I know it is very early for them, but I'm comparing to my first pregnancy where I was strongly symptomatic from the moment I got that positive test.
Am I worrying for no reason, or could this be a bad sign?

pregnancy symptoms can vary. Honestly no one here can tell you whether you should be worried or not.

I had no symptoms at all with my first, it was a shock when I found out.

My second I was sick as a dog before it even showed on tests.

I’m afraid it can be different every time, but if you’re concerned then let your GP know.

I would be more surprised if you were having symptoms at this stage. Nothing to worry about at all. Try and relax into your pregnancy.

Thanks all - this is a difficult stage isn't it? With my first, I had nausea and a very sore/heavy chest from 4 weeks. It's silly to compare I know, but anxiety just takes over I guess.
