Early
Signs Of Pregnancy
It’s
a good idea to keep a look out for the early signs of pregnancy if you
are trying for a baby. Its very important to see a doctor and
begin a regiment of prenatal care as early in your pregnancy as
possible, so the sooner you become aware of it the better.
Even if you aren’t trying for one, no birth control is
totally effective and so it’s a good idea to be familiar with
some early signs of pregnancy just in case.
Probably the most well known early sign of pregnancy is a missed
menstrual cycle. A late period for most women is their first
sign that they might be pregnant, yet there are actually some early
signs of pregnancy that can occur even before then. One early
symptom of pregnancy that can occur even just a week or two after
conception is the dreaded ‘morning
sickness’. While morning sickness does indeed often
occur in the morning, it can happen at anytime throughout the day, and
can be persistent. Many women report having had morning
sickness symptoms up to two It’s a good idea to keep a look

sickness symptoms up to two weeks before the expected period was
missed.
Another common early sign of pregnancy that can occur shortly after
conception is tender and swelling breasts. Breasts often
become tender before a normal menstrual cycle, but swelling and
tingling sensations in addition to tenderness is a strong indicator of
pregnancy. Finally, fatigue is another early indicator,
especially if other early signs of pregnancy are present as well.
It’s a good idea to keep in mind that many women
don’t experience any of these early signs of pregnancy at all
and do not realize they are pregnant until well after their expected
menstrual cycle was missed. Other women begin experiencing
symptoms almost immediately after conception. The types and
intensity of symptoms women experience varies from woman to woman, and
can vary from pregnancy to pregnancy within the same woman as
well.
Many women may experience some combination of early signs of pregnancy
and not be pregnant at all. All of the symptoms discussed
above can occur due to stress, sickness, hormone imbalances, diet,
birth control pills or other medications, or pretty much anything else
that throws your body a little out of whack. If you suspect
you could be pregnant, its always a good idea to take a pregnancy test
and see a doctor just to be on the safe side.
