Hiya, I had no symptoms at all with dd1 and had no bump to speak of until about 6 months.

Please try not to worry, as hard as that is, and good luck with the pregnancy.

Yes, it's normal. Some are sick, sore boobs etc, but not everyone. I always get sore boobs from about 6 1/2 weeks, and sick maybe a little earlier.

Everyone is different. Other early symptoms include "period" pain coming and going in the early weeks, feeling sickish-hungry or light-headed.

Anyway, not having a period (and 6 positive tests) is a very big symptom

Good luck.

don't worry...totally normal. Enjoy it while it lasts because morning sickness is horrible if you get it (not everyone does).

Congratulations!

I'm the same at the moment. No symptoms apart from sore boobs in the morning, which tend to fade during the day and come back at night.

I've got a little cramping occassionally but nowhere near as bad as it was when I was pregnant with DD.

I'm 5 weeks today.

I have terrible pregnancies, but the symptoms only ever start at around 8 weeks.

cardamomginger · 25/06/2010 15:25

Totally normal! I had no symptoms at all and am now 26.5 weeks. Know exactly what you mean about feeling paranoid! Congratulations!!

i has no symptoms ar all, until about 5 months when my bump appeared, them nothing else until i woke up with broken waters at 39 weeks

I'm sure it's normal as everyone is different. If I was you I would rejoice in feeling great...i'm bloody envious actually!

Rocklover · 25/06/2010 16:13

Oh and by the way, although I felt sick from 4 weeks, my sore boobs didn't really kick in till week 7 at least. I will be 9 weeks tomorrow.

lynniep · 25/06/2010 17:02

again just to confirm that you dont always get symptoms. DS1 I had sore boobs right from the start and new something was up. Then I had spotting around 8 weeks and panicked but it was nothing.
With DS2 I only realised something was up when I noticed I'm missed a period. Two in fact

milliemoocow · 26/06/2010 10:25

you lot are great i feel soooo much better already and your right i should stop worrying and just be happy that i feel ok it certainly makes going to work easier i ended up having 14 weeks off sick last pregnancy so maybe its my turn to have easy ride this time around lol:-)
