I admit this is very silly for me to post, but it makes me nervous that I do not have obvious symptoms. I have felt tired, and sometimes my stomach does flops with some smells. Im sure Im just too early for the hard core fun stuff, and I should not wish it on myself. I just dont feel pregnant yet even though I have taken 5 tests! Anyone else with same thoughts?
Re: Lack of symptoms
I didn't start having symptoms until about 6 weeks, even though I had already missed my very regular AF and had a positive test.
Then I got the exhaustion and MS...still going strong.
I'm right there with you, every little thing I'm like "is that a symptom?" I am hoping to get away with not having any of the not fun symptoms! haha, doubt it though. I took three tests, two yesterday and one this morning, all very much positive, but wanted to just in case....
Sometimes I wish I felt more pregnant, just to be reassured that things were okay!
I have cramping, and I got nauseous at the grocery store yesterday (I was super excited about the prospect of yacking on the floor!) and sometimes I have bouts of strong smell, but other than that, I don't have constant m/s or anything. (I'm not wishing this upon myself, and I know that some ladies have a really terrible time with it)
I have heard that most symptoms don't set in until around 6 or 7 weeks.

So there usually isn't too many symptoms this early. Don't worry yourself about it, 5 pos. test is a pretty sure thing! With my first child, I didn't have m/s at all and so far, only a little nausea with this one. Congrats and good luck on a healthy and happy pregnancy!
Oh, my goodness..this just makes me smile.. I felt GREAT until about 5 1/2 to 6 weeks.. then, BAM..m/s reared it's ugly head and hasn't left... along with the sore boobs, headaches, food aversions, extreme fatigue... Enjoy it now!
Re: TheNewMrsY--
Congratulations to you!
I am also having brown spotting, which is a little disconcerting, but my hCG and progesterone levels are great, so I'm hoping it's not a sign that anything is wrong. It is so nice to know that I'm not the only one!
Best wishes!

A new baby is like the beginning of all things... hope and a dream of possibilities.

Yes it is disconcerting. It's only a small amount. I'm glad that your levels are good; I'm going in for my beta on Tues AM. I'm getting anxious for it... mostly nervous for the time between when they do it and when I hear about it! Praying all is well in there!!!
This is my first pregnancy too and even though most, so-called "normal" pregnancies don't even realize they are pg until about wekk 5 or 6...for the majority of us it seems we all have been waiting a very L O N G time for this day and we've heard such horror stories about m/s that we just expect it to be here by now I suppose. I'm not wishing for the symptoms to happen as long as baby is happy and snuggled in for the long haul BUT if they do feel like showing up, I know I can handle it because, it is after all, what I signed up for
Good luck to you all! What a crazy exciting time!!!
I don't feel anything but extremely sore breasts. I don't even feel particularly tired. Every woman I know seems to have trouble getting pregnancies to stick and even though I've taken 5 tests, and had no bleeding at all, I'm still a worrier, and I just want this baby to happen, even though it was so not my plan. My first appointment is on January 9th, it seems so far away!
Good luck on Tuesday!!!
