Early symptoms of pregnancy.

Early symptoms of pregnancy.

What are the early symptoms of pregnancy?

The most common early signs and symptoms of pregnancy might include:

  • Missed period.
  • Tender, swollen breasts.
  • Nausea with or without vomiting.
  • Increased urination.
  • Fatigue

Other less obvious signs and symptoms of pregnancy that you might experience during the first trimester include:

  • Moodiness.
  • Bloating.
  • Light spotting. 
  • Constipation.
  • Hypersensitivity to odor, need for certain foods, change in taste;
  • Nasal congestion.

Are you really pregnant?

As we read in the article, these symptoms do not fully confirm pregnancy and may indicate another condition.

Likewise, you can be pregnant without experiencing many of these symptoms.

In addition to the test and suspicious symptoms, you can confirm the pregnancy by ultrasound (visualization of the fetus and listening to the heartbeat).

Of course, situations where the test is positive but ultrasound does not show pregnancy in the uterine cavity should also be considered; this may mean that there is still a small pregnancy on the face, although the risk of an external pregnancy should not be ruled out. In this case, a test is prescribed to determine the level of chorionic gonadotropin in the blood.
