Hi ladies, I've been lurking ever since I found out I was preggo. Based on my LMP, I'm around 6W3D. My first prenatal appointment isn't until June 4th (at 8weeks). My concern right now is that I've felt zero pregnancy symptoms. I realize that not all pregnancies will be the same, but shouldn't I feel something out of the ordinary?
Re: Anyone with zero symptoms?
I took another HPT and have noticed the line is lighter than it was before...
All this worry can't be good...but I wish I could just know for sure.
The darkness of the line doesn't mean anything in an HPT. HPTs are not quantitative measures, so the line will not always get darker with increased hCG levels - it's all about the amount of dye in the test.
I also haven't had any serious symptoms - some fatigue, some shortness of breath when climbing stairs at work, some minor boob soreness. But no food aversions, m/s, etc.
Until 7 weeks or more all I felt was "anxiety." Like, an anxious stomach. I could never tell if it was M/S or just nervous excitement.
Then the quease, sore boobies, and tiredness started to sneak up on me.
Give it time.
I've had minor symptoms as well, but they could easily be attributed to stress and the anxiety over worrying about this pregnancy. With the pregnancy I had in Jan, I was vomitting almost every night and was always nauseous, and with DD, I was not remotely nauseous until after 10 weeks.
