hello,

he most difficult part about pregnancy is that not every woman experiences the same symptoms. Early pregnancy symptoms can differ, and some women may not know they are expecting until after a missed period. Unlike in the movies, vomiting and nausea are not always the first symptoms of a pregnancy.

Stress or pregnancy
1. Pregnancy symptoms and stress can often show the same signs. Knowing the date of your last period usually helps eliminate the possibility of pregnancy.
Breast tenderness
2. Most women notice breast tenderness as an early pregnancy sign. Fuller breasts that are sore to touch can start as early as a few days after you conceive.
Exhaustion
3. Feeling tired is a normal part of pregnancy. Early signs can include feeling run down, and getting tired faster than usual.
Frequent Urination
4. Frequent urination is an early sign of pregnancy, which starts because the body is pumping more blood. The higher blood volume results in more fluid, which then becomes frequent bathroom trips.
Changes in smell
5. Women report that in the early stages of pregnancy they start to notice their sense of smell changing. Specifically, regular smells have a stronger odor and even foods can smell too strong, which can make women feel nauseous.
Early Tests
6. A home pregnancy test may not be able to detect small amounts of pregnancy hormone HCG in early pregnancies. A blood test can be done in either a doctor's office or at a hospital. The blood test would be able to find small amounts of pregnancy hormone HCG if you are pregnant.
