How do you know everything’s ok if you feel nothing?

Question

Hi I am 6w6d so far. Found out I was expecting at 3w4d and went for blood test and scan at 5w to check location to ensure it’s in uterus. Now waiting for 8w scan for heartbeat and edd etc. The thing is I have almost no symptoms (I know I should be grateful, and in a way I am cos I can still continue with my workouts). I don’t have morning sickness, no headaches and giddiness, no food aversions, sense of smell is regular, no cramping, no more than usual discharge.. Just swollen boobs, very mild backache once, higher body temp, and fatigue that is easily cleared when I go for a run/walk/cycle.I can’t help but feel like nothing’s happening.. other than the fact I know I’m pregnant because of tests. So this makes me worried, like how do I know if the pregnancy is still going fine if I feel nothing..? Some days I feel like all I can do to reassure myself is to take another home pregnancy test.

Hi! I only had swollen boobs and mild nausea (went away after I took diclectin for a month ) since I found out my about my pregnancy at week 7. Baby is growing well and I had no symptoms until I enter mid trim 2 where my frequent discharge, backaches, migraines all come together. Don’t stress yourself too much, just look forward to every scans to see bb and his/her heartbeat :) I’m currently at week 26+5 and I feel like I as tho I have a heater in me 😖 normal body temp, just feeling very very hot.
