I had a long chat on Skype with my sister at the weekend which was a great treat, oh we can talk some babble!!! Anyway, I was telling her how my boobs weren't particularly swollen or sore that day, in fact I felt quite good.

My question is, what symptoms do you get around my timing that makes you know that you're still pregnant???? Ok, I still feel sickly in an evening sometimes but not so much. My belly is sort of rounded but not much, so what symptoms to look out for?? I must say, it's quite a boring time, nothing happening really, or maybe I'm just expecting too much. By night time after tea and settle in front of tele (as that's all I'm good for then!!) I have a nicely rounded belly but I put that down to food and water from the rest of the day!!

At your stage I felt pretty much completely normal. I was really worried because I didn't feel pregnant but it's nothing to worry about really. It soon comes back again.

The only thing I did get was a few head aches I think. My bump began to grow at 16 or 17 weeks and at 19 weeks I had a proper bump and baby had started kicking so I deffinatly felt pregnant again by that time.

Woo can't wait. I have had a couple of headaches but not many luckily. I guess I am going through the paranoia stage again, only natural ..... I hope!! I keep being told by friends that I will start to bloom any day now ....... I am waiting!!! I guess I should make the most of feeling better. Just had dinner so bump is a little more prominent now.

i too felt pretty normal around that time. I felt what I thought could be my first movements of the baby aorund week 16. Dont worry - the time will fly quickly and you'll be inundated with symptoms (achey back, huge belly, sore hips, headaches, occasional incontinence...all fun fun fun ) before you know it.
Perhaps it was about that time when my boobs took ona great big growth spurt..i'm not sure.
Enjoy feeling good. You've plenty of exciting and not so exciting things to come in just a couple of weeks:
Every week of my pregnancy so far has been different.

I have found that a couple of times, I got a shooting pain on the my lower left belly after sneezing. Also, got off the chair the other night, straight not twisting to the side, and got a bad pain on my right side. Could this be muscles pulling easier as they are stretching? has anyone else had this? I now make sure I turn slightly to the side before standing out of a chair or bed.

Thanks for reminding me!!!!!!! I think this must be the calm before the storm, as I've never been through a storm like this, I think that's why I want it now. But I know once it's here, I'll moan about that too!!! I ache here, oooh I ache there, oooooh, make it go away!!! Ah well, I keep thinking about the end and what I'll have. Yep, you said it, dirt nappies!!!!! Yeahhhhh can't wait!

This is the lull stage. In a few weeks you may feel LO move and that should reassure you. And, yes, wait until the fun part of the end of 2nd trimester and/or in the third trimester.

I felt pretty good around 14 weeks too, no more nausea and the gagging had pretty much stopped. Never have had sore bbs (throughout any of my pregnancy). Enjoy it while it lasts!!

I have to admit that the weeks between coming out of the 1st trimester symptoms and the baby moving, was the most boring period of being pregnant.
