Pregnancy is one of the most crucial parts of a female’s lifetime. Here are seven common early signs of pregnancy that every woman must know.
"
"
Missed period
"
"
If a week or more has passed without the start of an expected menstrual cycle, you might be pregnant. This sign can be misleading if you have an irregular menstrual cycle.
"
"
Tender, swollen breasts
"
"
It is one of the common early signs in pregnancy in which hormonal changes take place and the breast becomes sensitive and sore. The discomfort will decrease after a few weeks as your body adjusts to hormonal changes.
"
"
Nausea with or without vomiting
"
"
Morning sickness can occur at any time of the day or night. It often begins one to two months after you become pregnant. However, some women feel nausea earlier and some never experience it.
"
"
Increased urination
"
"
It is another common early sign of pregnancy as the amount of blood in your body increases during pregnancy causing your kidneys to process extra fluid that ends up in your bladder.
"
"
Fatigue
"
"
Fatigue ranks high among early symptoms of pregnancy. A rapid rise in the levels of the hormone progesterone during early pregnancy can contribute to fatigue.
"
"
Cramping
"
"
Some women experience mild uterine cramping early in pregnancy.
"
"
Moodiness and bloating
"
"
Increased levels of hormones in early pregnancy may contribute to these symptoms.
