I am a little more than 8 weeks pregnant and haven't had much in the way of symptoms...no MS at all. I am tired a lot and my boobs are killing me, but I'm not sure whether to feel lucky that I'm not totally sick or a little worried. I read in one of my books that the earlier you feel sick, the less likely you are to miscarry. I have an US next Tuesday, and until then, I'm trying to remain hopeful and optimistic. My mantra has been "I'm enjoying a happy, healthy pregnancy."
Anyone else have very few "symptoms?" My mom said she didn't ever really feel sick either...
Re: 8 weeks and not many "symptoms"
My pregnancy with my son was so easy and painless. I never had MS. In fact even through my extended family, there's only one woman out of about a dozen who has difficult pregnancies, and all seem to have very healthy pregnancies.
Too early in this pregnancy to tell, but other than having firm, sensitive boobies, I am not experiencing much else. I had what felt like cramps this weekend, but thinking back it was more like pulling sensations than cramps, and those are mostly gone.

Ditto this. Don't borrow trouble.
I'm at 7 weeks and haven't felt MS either. This is my first pregnancy, but my mom and sister have both told me that they didn't get MS either. Maybe some predisposition to MS is genetic?
I guess we should just consider ourselves lucky!
This, exactly.
You're completely normal... And fortunate. Enjoy!
