Yes, sometimes women don't have any symptoms. I didn't with my last pregnancy, but with this one I've had every symptom in the book! And you should start your prenatal vitamins as soon as possible. About the white stuff in the toilet, that's also completely normal, and aggravating! it's called leukorreah. You can google it and it will tell you all you need to know;) Hope this helps.

I'm almost 6 weeks and I too have only experienced fatigue and sore breast.  This is my third pregnancy and I've never had any other symptoms.  I also called for a doc appt and was schelduled to come in at 10weeks.  I started prenatals on Dec. 11th though.  I got One A Day Prenatal over the counter.  Please go and pick up some as soon as you can, it really helps with the baby's growth and developement.  Congrats!

Also, I noticed today when I went to the bathroom there was white stuff in the toilet. This may sound dumb but is that normal?
