Now, here I am full-term at 37 weeks, so I guess I'm living proof that you can have sporadic or no symptoms and still be just fine.
Every woman and every pregnancy is different, and chances are you're absolutely fine. Seriously, though, there's no reason to sit around and worry. If you're upset or anxious, CALL the doctor. Don't worry about calling too much-- that's what they're there for. Maybe they can get you in earlier or do a blood draw or something to reassure you.
Good luck- I'll be thinking of you.

Hi Julia:
Laurie, wife to Dennis, Mommy to Amanda & Michelle Kathryn arrived 2/11/05
My symptoms came and went...and of course the moment my boobs stopped hurting I would freak (and poke them until sore *blush*), if I didn't throw up-not just nausea, but actually heaving, I was freaking out. The symptoms come and go...for a normal pregnant woman, this is a blessing, I am sure, but once you have been marked by loss, it will make you batty.
I would call just for reassurance. That is why we have ob's, to take care of us, treat us, whether it is just fears or what. ((((HUGS))))
Always,

Hi Julia!
I think I had the same panic attack every couple of days in my first few weeks of this pregnancy.
I only had symptoms about every 3rd or 4th day. I know it sounds strange-but I would feel fine for a few days & then they'd kick me on my a$$ again. I loved the 2 good days-but also appreciated the bad ones just because they kept me confident in the fact that I was pg. But the first couple of times I felt ok I was really stressed too. For me about the only symptom that has lasted throughout everything has been the constipation. Yippie! If you'd relax better go ahead & call your doc-but I think you're probably just fine.
Belly rubs!

Julia - I posted this message on the TTCAM board in the Grad section a few months ago - but I wanted to copy it again so you could read it.

The first trimester is the hardest to walk through and it's completely normal to be worried of every ache and pain or lack of. You aren't crazy, you are perfectly normal.
My DH thought I was a nut too- they don't understand.
