I have no sign of morning sickness, only slightly tired. The only things that I do have are tender/sore breasts, feeling hungrey all the time and that I have never come on my period. Is this normal?? Or should I pre grateful that I do not feel sick yet?!! This is my first so no idea what to expect! Any help would be much appreciated

Hello not to feel sick yet is normal my sickness started around 8-9 weeks so yes be greatful. I hated the morning sickness and going off food but after 12 weeks everything seems to settle down.

Don't worry its normal. My first pregnancy was morning sickness free. I had no symptoms only tender breasts and a growing stomach.

I am now on my 4th and have had nearly every problem going :(

Sometimes it would be hgreat to feel how I did with my first.

Take it easy and enjoy being pregnant x

Congratulations!! I'm 6 weeks pregnant as well as feel normall too, apart from a few cramps which are perfectly normal considering what our wombs are going through! I had a scan today (we had IVF and they like to keep an eye on their new 'mums'!) and the baby is the size of an 8 weeks and 5 day old foetus so the nurse is very pleased. I'm waiting for the morning sickness to kick though!!!!

i have felt normal all the way through my preganancy. at the begining there was nothing to suggest i even was pregnant except slightly heavier breasts and a loss of appetite (but i didnt feel sick, just wasn't hungry). it was because of this and my irregular periods that i didn't even i was pregnant till about 8 weeks! i've really enjoyed being pregnant. it's made me feel amazing!!

We're you not worried because you weren't sick or felt the symptoms everyone expresses online?

I feel the same - I've just found out I'm pregnant with my first (must be around 4-5 weeks) and don't feel any different other than tender breasts and a 'funny' feeling in my abdomen which i though was my period starting but 2 positive tests later I'm delighted it's not a period!

Dont know what to expect so any advice would be amazing! Good luck to all you expectant mummies too

I am around 5 weeks pregnant and other than feeling tired and eating pickled onions i dont feel too bad. Im just trying to keep positive as have had 2 miscarriages recently, so hoping for third time lucky. My memory is rubbish mind you and I appear very bloated.. Sat at work with trousers undone already. but im only 4ft 11, so i guess it must show quicker.. I just spoke to my midwife who said if im going to get sickness it will probably start next week ish,, and to rest and do nothing too stressful!! Good luck. :))

Hi, I am 4 weeks pregnant and haven't had many symptons, It's weird really because I actually can't wait to feel "pregnant" by having the proper symptons! guess I shouldn't get so excited, morning sickness sounds awful!! I am really bloated though and even at 4 weeks gone my work uniform is uncomfortable and I'm finding it hard to sit on my chair at work! Anyone else struggling at work?

Im just over 5 weeks pregnant and im a carer so im finding work really tiring.. Ive been having to unfasten nearly all the trousers i wear, but sometimes they say the slimmer u are the earlier it shows :/ Cannot wait to have a little bump tho and experience my baby move and kick. The only symptoms i have is Heartburn which i have constantly, tiredness and feeling sick but not on a morning, mainly on afternoon and teatime.. Just a little concerned because on my previous pregnancies which have ended in miscarriage ive always had sore breast by this stage :/ xx

Congratulations to all you ladies. am 6weeks and I don't have any symptoms at all. Today was my first visit to my doctor and have been referred to the hospital so am just waiting for my first appointment. My doctor said its normal to feel this way not having a symptoms and I should be lucky. But am not 100% okay until my first scan then I can say something different.
