Hi Moms, I dont seem to have pregnancy symptoms yet snd it bothers me. HCG levels are where it should be when i took a test few days ago. Any moms with me?
Symptoms or severity of symptoms or lack of symptoms vary from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy. Symptoms aren't proof of a healthy pregnancy. During my first pregnancy morning sickness didn't kick in until weeks 6-7. You may never have morning sickness. Its different for everyone. You technically aren't symptomless, a missed period is one the first symptoms of pregnancy people notice. Don't overthink it.

What does feeling pregnant supposed to feel?
There is no one correct answer.
At this point in time be thankful you are not puking your guts out all morning/day.
Be thankful your breasts are not super painful that wearing a bra hurts.
Be thankful that you don't have debilitating migraines (only one of 2 symptoms I had)
You do have a symptom of pregnancy: no periods that is the #1 symptom.
Honestly, your numbers are good feel blessed that you are lucky at this time. Just know that symptoms can come and go.
At ths time, enjoy because 3rd tri comes quickly and it becomes more uncomfortable as you approach due date.
Every pregnancy is different and a lack of what people think of as traditional first tri symptoms has no bearing on the health of your pregnancy. With my oldest I had almost zero symptoms, and he's a healthy handful of a 5 year-old now. So hang in there and try not to worry, there are plenty of symptoms coming!
I'm not pregnant now (TWW) but with my first I had no symptoms (other than MP) too and everything went well! I know it is difficult to start bonding when you don't really feel pregnant. If the no symptoms keeps up, then you'll be able to really bond with baby when you start feeling kicks! :) I know how you're feeling though for sure!
@cnc2020. You have a missed period, right? You have a symptom!
Agreed. It's not about missed period but about other ones as well coz test has already been positive. Not to sound discouraging, but sometimes no symptoms could also mean impending miscarriage (which may or may happen w/o bleeding as well), which cannot be detected until ultrasounds are done. Unfortunately, my appt is at around 10W, so not holding on to myself.

Sorry. So wrong! No symptoms does not mean a possible impending miscarriag . Women have major symptoms and still miscarry, sadly. The only symptom I had was a missed period until second trimester when migraines hit (never had them before) and my belly started growing to look like a bump. So please, the presence or absence of stmymptoms does not determine an outcome of a pregnancy.
@cnc2020 let’s stop spreading the falsehood that no symptoms equals miscarriage because no one needs that noise. Even if you have symptoms it may end in an MC so the reality is we don’t know which pregnancies will be fine so we hold out hope that we will make it. I know several people who had Minimal to no symptoms except for missed period and positive test until they started feeling baby.
The presence or lack of symptoms is not indicative of the health of a pregnancy.
Period.
*TW* I’ve had symptoms with loss. I’ve had similar symptom levels with successful pregnancies.
It’s also normal for symptoms to come & go.
Even with symptoms, it’s completely normal to not “feel” pregnant for a long time. I had a good amount of nausea this pregnancy (enough that I lost weight) and still, with an anterior placenta making it nearly impossible to feel movement early, even at around 20 or more weeks, I still didn’t feel pregnant.

Wow, that is really unnecessary.
Symptoms or lack there of mean nothing.

with my first loss, I had all the symptoms, was getting ridiculously sick to go in for a visit at 14 weeks to find baby had no heartbeat.
then a few years later, I again had a ridiculous amount of symptoms to find out I had a molar pregnancy.
with my first pregnancy, I didn’t get morning sickness until about 8-10 weeks, then proceeded to vomit at least once a day until I had her at 39 weeks.
