Early Symptoms of Pregnancy

October 31st, 2008


Some very early pregnancy symptoms show up almost right away, even prior to missing a period. In this article, you will discover what to look for if you think you could be pregnant.
Early pregnancy symptoms can be difficult to pin down because they are much like the symptoms of PMS. You could just think that what you are experiencing is typical and means that your period is on it’s way.

But wait! Many women seem to have a “gut instinct” that alerts them that something is amiss. If you suspect that your body is trying to tell you something, it may be worth paying attention to.

One of the first symptoms of pregnancy is fatigue. Sudden, unusual exhaustion and feeling fatigued at times of your day when you usually have energy are all symptoms that some women experience. The fatigue that comes with pregnancy is a result of the pregnancy hormones having an effect on your body. Fatigue can show up almost right away.

You may also find that you experience tender, sore *******. If you have been pregnant before, this can be more pronounced and you might even notice your ******* swelling fairly early on in your pregnancy.

Morning sickness is another early pregnancy symptom and the one that seems to be talked about the most. Like everything else in pregnancy, morning sickness varies from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy. Morning sickness can be anything from slight nausea to vomiting and is not limited to the mornings, despite the name. Some women notice that their morning sickness is worsened by certain smells, like the smells of some food.

Finally, the most undeniable early pregnancy symptom is missing your period. If you exhibit any of the symptoms above and your period is late, it might be time to take a home pregnancy test or make an appointment with your OBGyn.
