I just wanted to vent out since my family is not understanding , i am 7 weeks 1 day pregnant i have absolutely no symptoms , just sore boobs from progesterone and sometimes im more hungry otherwise nothing . I am really worried my scan is on tuesday and i cry myself to sleep every night thinking my baby is not okay ... i know i should think positive but i worked so hard and want this baby so much also can’t afford any more cycles .. i just can’t seem to shake all the fears out of my head i pray and pray and cry everyday that this baby is okay
But having no symptoms has got me even more worried especially now that i am 7 weeks closing to 8 soon please can anyone give me some positive stories , some comforting words
Thank you all 💕

I didn’t have any symptoms at all and I had twins - I had no nausea no sore boobs no sickness or cramping. I know it’s hard. It try abs stay as positive as you can x
Hi lovely, I totally get this. I felt exactly the same way. Then I had a light bleed 2 nights before the scan. Sitting in the waiting room I had prepared myself as much as possible for this not being good news and ruled myself out completely. I was so shocked when I heard a heart beat and I am never one that’s lost for words. I am 19 weeks and honestly have been so lucky that it’s been symptomless but I know it’s the thing we associate with pregnancy. I just wanted to let you know this is absolutely still possible with no symptoms and I have everything crossed for your scan on Tuesday xxx
Ah, you poor thing! I am 10 weeks and when I stop having symptoms for even a day I convince myself that there is no heartbeat. Everyone’s pregnancy is different though and it’s very likely your little one is just fine. It is very hard when we’ve had previous failures on this journey. But from the sounds of it you’ve also had no significant bleeding, which is a really good sign. I found the Mindful IVF app very useful in trying to stay calm. The Finally Pregnant podcast is useful too. You can also book a scan yourself at a private ultrasound clinic (I just phoned up) if you would like some reassurance at any time. xx
Thank you so much .. i wish i had symptoms and they go i don’t have any 😟and i am taking shots and pessaries i read somewhere if god forbid a miscarriage happens it will prolong bleeding sometimes .. i actually had a scan at 5 weeks6 days due to right sided pain and spotting we saw a gestational sac and yolk sac but there was no fetal pole or HB which doubled my fears but i keep reading it’s early and many women after 6 weeks they see a fetal pole and at 7 weeks to see a HB i am trying my best to stay positive but i cannot not expect the worst as i still can’t believe i am pregnant until i see that baby
That is really good you had a scan already. My ultrasound clinic won’t scan you until you are 6.5 weeks as there won’t be a heartbeat. I didn’t sleep at all the night before our first scan - I completely understand how scared you must be feeling but having no symptoms is still completely normal for a lot of people (my own mother never had any!). You are still in the game. Very best of luck on Tuesday 😘😘😘
Hi Endwarrior, I am much further behind you, at 5+0 weeks, but also without no symptoms at all but I completely understand, as there is just so much fear in waiting for each step of the first trimester, knowing the pitfalls and our minds filling with the heartbreaking stories. I know it very well, but I try my best to remind me of good advice received, that we are doing everything we can right for our little jellybeans, but that we can’t control it more than that. Sending you big hugs and positive energy.
Hi Endwarrior I could have written this post myself, although I am now 9w+2 but still feel the same. I have had barely any symptoms at all apart from hunger pangs and a little more tired than usual. I had a scan at 7w+3 which did reassure me as there was a strong heartbeat and everything was as it should be. Still doesn't stop me worrying though I am waiting now for 12w scan for more reassurance. I think we all hear about sickness and nausea and when it doesn't happen to us, fear the worst. Everyone keeps telling me to be grateful that I feel fine, which I totally am but doesn't stop the worry. Stay positive and fingers crossed for your scan that everything is perfect too💛💫
I think its been said a lot on this forum but the worst thing about IVF is that it robs you of your innocence. We all know every statistic, every little thing that could go wrong and how hard it was to get here - of course we are much more anxious than is 'usual' for pregnancy!
Every woman has different experiences and I know lots who have had basically no symptoms and totally healthy pregnancies. Keeping everything crossed for you x
So true .. my sister always asks me how can i be that negative but she doesn’t understand how hard fertility journey is on us mentally and physically and to reach pregnancy is something we sometime didn’t think would happen .. thank you for your kind words
You're not being negative, unfortunately you're just well informed! X
I would do anything not to have symptoms right now😥, i have had a very difficult pregnancy complications and it has been a constant struggle. from 7weeks to my 19th week was like the most difficult period for me as i could neither eat nor even sleep, i was hooked on iv fluids, constantly vomiting, severe heartburns, bursting blood vessels, lacerations in my stomach lining, total weakness, food aversions and bleeding, i ended up losing one of my babies as i was carrying twins. So for me i feel if i dont have symptoms i am more relieved that nothing will happen to my little fighter. Your little miracle will be fine as i strongly believe absence of symptoms makes me stronger for the baby. i am currently in my 25th week and still struggle with severe heartburns. Hang in there warrior you got this!
Thank you everyone well my us did not go tooWell . I can’t say if good or not they did detect a heartbeat but could not hear it so i have to go back in a week to see where things go .. i really don’t know what to think or feel ...
