15 weeks pregnant - any symptoms?

Morning ladies, just wanted to check in to ask how people were feeling once they got to 15 weeks?

I've just reached this milestone and feel a whole lot better than in the first trimester - I knew this was to be expected but I can't believe the difference. Typically, as a complete worrier, I'm now bothered that I'm not having any obvious symptoms which I obviously did have in the first 12 weeks.

Nausea has eased, my boobs don't hurt half as much and I've got lots more energy. I'm definitely not complaining but I'm just after a bit of reassurance.

Thanks :)

I felt like a total fraud! I wasn't really showing as I'm a bit overweight. I didn't have any symptoms and I didn't feel tired or ill. I just tried not to milk it too much for mums who were suffering by saying how fine I felt.

I entered 15 week yesterday too.. apart from my constant headache( which is persistent since starting) there is nothing else which is troubling me too. I definitely have slowed down and tiny bump have started showing in my fitted t-shirts. They say second trimester is the best.. hopefully it stays like this for us! :D

Congrats! I've been having bad headaches since the start too...Great that your symptoms have eased, it's just I'm searching for reassurance but guess I should start embracing it!

I've got a little bit of a bump, but it looks more like I've just over-indulged over the past few weeks haha!

I would say don't worry. I have had almost no symptoms, not really showing until over 20 weeks, only started feeling movement around 22 weeks and that all freaked me out, thinking I might not be pregnant (despite having had scans... yeah, I am a bit crazy :-) ).

I am not at 6 months and you still hardy see anything, as people say, I could just have had a big meal.

We are all different, so just enjoy being out of the sickness nightmare, another one might start soon (swollen feet, heartburns or back pain or any other joy). Your body will tell you if something is not right.

I’m 15 weeks and 4 days and don’t have any symptoms at all really - my belly pops out a lot in the evening but in the morning my stomach is pretty flat! Had a check up with the midwife today over the phone and this is all normal 😊 I think now is the time to enjoy the increased energy and easier times as it won’t last for long 😅 xx

By the time I got to 15 weeks I did not feel pregnant at all! I felt amazing and it felt surreal after the severe tiredness and dizziness of the first tri! Enjoy this golden period 😊 I didnt start to really properly show until probably 24 weeks either, before then you could have just said I had eaten far too much through lockdown! I'm currently 34 weeks, supporting what I feel is a huge bump and struggling to walk 🤣 so please don't worry and definitely enjoy this time 😊 xx

Thanks for this. Really hope you’re doing ok, not too long to go now!

I had a terrible night just not being able to get comfy and woken up this morning feeling all achey around my sides and back. I obviously spoke too soon about having no symptoms 😂 Xx

With my pregnancies I had sickness past 12 weeks - my last pregnancy with my boy was worse as went on to 20 weeks and by then I was feeling movement so didn't have concerns about not feeling pregnant .If you are concerned speak to your midwife - but generally it is suppose to be better but I wouldn't know lol -
