Here are some subtle early warning signs of pregnancy. Subtle in some women and precocious in others. It's up to you!
Pregnancy symptoms
- The first, and not the least, is the delay or total absence of your periods and especially if your cycle is very regular. On the other hand, if your cycle is irregular and you are experiencing a period of stress or extreme fatigue, do not rely solely on this sign.
- Your breasts may become very sensitive to touch. This symptom may also be accompanied by a feeling of heaviness and swelling, while some women even experience slight tingling.
- You may experience extra fatigue and heaviness in your legs not only in the evening, but at any time of the day.
- You notice increased vaginal discharge and secretions becoming thicker and darker (yellowish in color)
- You experience retching and nausea in the morning and during the day.
- You feel the urge to urinate much more frequently.
- You have strong cravings for rather unusual foods.
- You have a marked and suffered disgust for othersfood.
- You are very sensitive and have strong emotional reactions to hormonal changes going on in your body.
All of these symptoms are in response to the many changes your body is going through. Preparing for pregnancy and increasing hormone levels require adjustment from the start. And don't worry about it! These little inconveniences and discomforts will not follow you for nine months. In most cases, they will subside and decrease slowly around 12th or 14th week of pregnancy.
If you notice several of these telltale signs of future motherhood, have them confirmed with a pregnancy test. You can buy it at a pharmacy or ask for a urine or blood analysis in the laboratory. For the purchase of the test in pharmacy, the result is instantaneous. The blood analysis in the laboratory, however, takes a day or two. Laboratory analyzes are very reliable since they demonstrate the presence of a pregnancy hormone from the fifteenth day after conception.
