First Signs and Symptoms of Pregnancy
There are many different signs of pregnancy, some women will experience almost all the common symptoms of pregnancy, while anothers will not. There is no fixed set of signs of pregnancy, but there are some common first signs which may indicate that you COULD be pregnant.Missed Period
This is probably one of the more reliable first signs of pregnancy. Although some women will experience implantation bleeding about the time of their period, it is usually lighter and/or shorter than their normal period. This is why you are asked for the first day of your last normal period. There are even a few women who will have period throughout their pregnancy, although this is rare, it does happen.Breast Tenderness
Breast tenderness is experienced by many women, both during pregnancy and prior to their periods. This usually goes away during the second trimester, or it may be experienced as a heighten sensitivity. This can be a good thing for some women.Morning sickness
Around half to two thirds of all pregnant women experience some degree of morning sickness, especially in the first few months. The symptoms include nausea and vomiting. For most women, morning sickness begins around the fourth week of pregnancy and resolves by the 12th week. Apart from pregnancy, nausea and vomiting can be caused by other factors including:- Food poisoning
