At the beginning of my pregnancy I was dizzy and stuff. After 6 weeks apart from a rash that came I was "normal" throughout until right near the end :-)

I wasn't sure about those as some people said they didn't always work! What a panic!! But if you think it'll make you feel better go for it. I had no other pregnancy experience before this one so had no clue what to expect for myself but I was happy to basically be me but with a bump :-) try not to worry and enjoy it before all hell breaks loose (well that was my experience anyway lol. Hoping your will continue in this fashion) :-) x

I felt pretty normal at 15 weeks, didn't have any sickness or odd symptoms, just felt quite tired. Have been the same right the way through, now 28 weeks and measuring quite big, so some acheyness, but still pretty normal feeling. Really hope all goes well for you and you continue to feel ok :) xx

I've felt normal throughout my pregnancy and I'm now 39 weeks plus! Think some people are just lucky...

I don't blame you for the paranoia though, think that is 'normal' too for preggers ladies!

Xx

I felt exactly the same! I had very few pregnancy symptoms throughout and despite my 12 week scan I still wondered if there was anything in there - particularly around the 16 week mark! Try to make the most of feeling well and look forward to bump getting bigger, 20 week scan and hopefully not too long before you start to feel it wriggling around!xx

Hey, sounds to me like you feeling normal is well...normal. I think that 1st trimester is governed by crazy hormones, into the 2nd trimester and many say that they didn't feel pregnant anymore as they felt well and casting my mind back I was probably one of them. I had MC's too so was a little paranoid. The 3rd trimester is harder on body again as your heavy and physically restricted with a peanut size bladder, you'll be willing your due date to hurry up so enjoy this feeling of 'normal' whilst it lasts :-) Xx

I have a heart Doppler that I bought second hand as don't think I would have spent a lot on one. To start off with got it for my older children (aged 12, 10 and 8) to help them feel more part of things and they are all so excited thought it would be a fun "toy" really. Was determined if we couldn't find anything I wouldn't panic though as didn't want to cause myself more stress worrying about things(I also have had MC's). Got to say it has been great and one of my best ever buys. Have been able to find heartbeat since 11 wks when I first got it. Had a few days early on when we couldn't find anything but just joked with my kids that baby was tucked away hiding...always made us giggle thinking of baby trying to hide from us. I am now 18 wks and although can take a minute or two can always find baby now...although kids still know if we cant is just cos bubs is in an awkward place. Even my 8 yr old boy put the gel on at the weekend and for the first time found the heartbeat himself without me having to help him....should have seen his face it was an amazing moment. For me it has been great but do think you have to be able to accept no heartbeat doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong...if you don't think you could do that maybe not worth it. Think once we can feel kicks the Doppler will get put away but has been lovely way to involve my kids so far xxxx

Hey there - from week 7-14 I felt a bit ill and more tired than I thought was possible but after that I felt great. I would say that what you're feeling is normal but I understand your anxiety. I hope you continue to feel well and best of luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

Define 'normal' ;)

If 'normal' is healthy, well in yourself, no sickness and no cravings. I was...AM...normal :)
