Not FEELING so preggers... anyone else?

[busymama77]

The only 'symptoms' I'm having are sore boobs, a little tired in the afternoon, and being gassy. I've gained about a 1 pound or two as I can see my pooch getting a little bigger, but that could be that I'm just bloated.

Anyone else not feeling so preggers right now? I'm currently 5 weeks and 2 days. I know I didn't have that many symptoms when I was pg with DS, but this is just blowing my mind!

[whozeyermamma]

Me too! Yay! A separate thread!

A few days ago had really sore boobs - not so much now. (Or maybe I'm just getting used to it.) I keep grabbing my boobs to see if they feel fuller - did it without thinking of it in the grocery store the other day : Kind of tired (also not drinking 6 cups of Earl Gray a day)

Sometimes a little queasy, but not really. I'm going to see my doc on Wednesday which I think is kind of silly given that they can't hear a heartbeat or anything but oh well ....

I'm trying to remember when the m/s started with DD ... thought it was around six, seven weeks and I'm only - what? 4 weeks? (bean is due march 4.)

I'm not. I have pretty "symptomless" pregnancies. I don't get sore boobs (or bigger ones, for that matter), I don't get m/s, I don't get nauseous at all, etc. My skin has broken out horribly the last 2 times, and eventually I get heartburn, but not much more than that, and those certainly don't make me feel pregnant!

Other than being super hungry, I'm pretty symptomless right now. But I'll take it. Last time, I remember thinking around 6 weeks that I must be one of the lucky ones who don't get m/s, extreme tiredness, etc. Less than a week later the nausea and exhaustion started, and I pretty much puked every day after that until 22 weeks. So I'm trying to enjoy my symptomless period in case that happens again this time. I'm 4 weeks and 3 days today I think, so I'm giving it another 2 or 3 weeks.

Finally - some people I can relate too!

When I first thought I might be preggers, I got a severly congested nose, but it went away the day I got the BFP - so it only lasted 4 days maybe. Now I just seem to have extra snot . I also have constant creamy CM.

Aside from that, my boobs definitely feel bruised, but they come and go. Whozeyer, I laughed out loud when I read your post because I am constantly squeezing my boobs to see if they still hurt! It's funny because for the first week only my left one hurt and now my right one hurts and my left one doesn't. It's not even a pain, but more like if I touch them it just feels like they are bruised.

I'm also tired mid-afternoon, but it could be that I recently shifted my work schedule to where I have to wake up at 6am now, whereas I use to wake up at 8am, but who knows.

I feel very lucky I don't have severe symptoms, but sometimes I have to remind myself I'm pregnant so I also think it might be nice to experience something a bit more dramatic? I'm only 5 weeks and 5 days, so who knows, maybe come week 6 or 7 the m/s will come? I hope not!

Jumping over here from Feb DDC. I am due at end of Feb so am only6 weeks +1 day today. I have been feeling practically nothing until today, yesterday and day before feeling sick to my stomach- not nauseous but stomach ache and stomach bug like. I expected different symptoms but I am thinking no symptoms this early is pretty common. It was actually nicer before I felt sick!

[sh0rty0143]

Haven't tested at all yet, but we are "sort of" TTC #1. I am 12 po, and showing some symptoms that aren't typical of a period. Curious to see what you ladies thought. My boobs are feeling the way Longhorn described -- heavy, swollen, "bruised". Have been since I ovulated, which isn't typical for me. Having a few period like cramps, nothing major. The big one is having a CONSTANT upset stomach/soft BM. Regardless of what I have eaten. Today I even got heartburn from a banana(seriously?!?!) I've tried excluding things that may have been the cause of the upset stomach, and still nothing helps. Oy ve. I am not entirely sure if this could *potentially* be a symptom.. or if I am coming down with something. LOL Don't plan on testing for a couple more weeks, even though AF is due this weekend. Hubby is on a TDY to some base in Missouri and won't be back til 18 July. So I plan to wait til then. Just wanted some input.
Thanks!! <3

Now that I have a super prenatal (loaded with the B vitamins) I don't even have nausea any more... sore boobs a bit (though NOTHING like my first! I couldn't hardly SHOWER because the water hurt SOOOO badly!)..

But that's all. I'm not even that much more tired I don't think (ah, but life is a blur sometimes anyway and I simply exist in a fog.. lol)... I'll take it!!

[mamacatsbaby]

I go back and forth. Like right now and earlier today, I had the space cadet head swimmyish thing going on but . I'm almost convinced I won't be sick and exhausted this time around. But maybe it'll hit me at that 6 week point too. Last time I thought it was around now. Hmm...

[ursusarctos]

Great thread!
Actually my most consistent pregnancy symptom is lack of symptoms! If I'm going to get my period I usually get some pretty unmistakable PMS - sore boobs for at least a week, bloating, sensitivity, irritability, the whole caboodle. I found out that if I'm pregnant my boobs are more "fluffy" than sore and I'm just a bit sensitive. And hungry And spaced out/less verbally oriented (I am a very verbal person normally), that's actually a big one for me.
As for m/s at least last time my "morning sickness" manifested more as a jittery feeling of low blood sugar than actual nausea. Though I only got to 7 weeks so who knows how it would have been! But I'm pretty convinced that for me at least m/s is a blood sugar fluctuation issue, since eating constantly seemed to keep it at bay.
sh0rty0143, just test! Then you'll know for sure!

[sarahr]

Yep, me too. I was just thinking today how surreal it is that I could totally forget that I was pregnant. My only symptoms are soreness when DD nurses and getting winded easily.

[Right of Passage]

No symptoms really. I had lots of weird uterus feelings a week or so ago, my guess implantation. Little touch of nausea, but that's typical for me.

[BelovedK]

I know by next week I will probably be wishing for no symptoms, but I am really freaking out today. I keep feeling my boobs I feel about like af is going to come (but she never showed up ) My tests are good, but I didn't test for the first time this morning (and am obsessing, wishing I had)

I just need to accept that I AM pregnant, and start to enjoy it (before I begin feeling awful)

[altbirthservices]

No real pregnancy symptoms here for me, either and I am 5 weeks 2 days.

I have been suffering from nausea, exhaustion and the runs, but that has to do with the meds I am on. It started the same time they switched my meds and it is common with the ones I am on.

[BelovedK]

I am 4w5d, should I be having major symptoms by now? I feel it a teeny bit. I am in a worried state of mind, is anyione else out there 4w5d with low symptoms?

[brightskye]

I'm 4wk and 1day, and I feel great. I think that moments of slight dizzy-woozyheadedness are my only symptom so far. I'm not even tired yet. Don't worry, that's totally normal. Last time I remember fretting that I had no symptoms, didn't feel pregnant, then at 6 weeks on the dot the nausea kicked in and camped out in my tummy for the next 12 weeks, and I felt like I was dying of exhaustion. Don't worry, it's really early.

I'm the same as you, but like I said, I have pretty symptomless pregnancies. I don't really expect to have an symptoms for months, but I'd always love to get a few, just for a bit of reassurance.

[smeisnotapirate]

No symptoms at all. Guess that's why I'm so shocked.

Well, maybe a little more tired.

[mum5]

no idea when the due date is, I guess I could work it out from my lmp as beginning of march, but very little symptoms as yet. I have been having cramping, like I am about to get my period, since my period has been due, which I can't remember from before, and I do feel sick in the morning.
I am trying to eat a smoothie after a cup of coffee, and that seems to keep the nausea away.
Here's hoping for no sickies, I am normally throwng up for the whole 9 months!

[Right of Passage]

I had to POAS yesterday again to make sure I'm still pregnant. I keep dreaming that I'm not, or that I'm about to have a m/c. If I could just throw up a few times I'd be very happy.
