First symptoms of pregnancy
 If
you are trying to conceive, then you are probably expecting
and hoping to experience the
first symptoms of pregnancy soon. The symptoms
of early pregnancy vary from woman to woman, but there are
many symptoms that you can almost count on experiencing in
the first few weeks after conception. This article will help
you know what to look for.
A symptom many woman report experiencing is implantation
spotting. This is light bleeding that occurs at around 10
days after ovulation. This may not be a first symptom of pregnancy
for all women, since some women experience spotting on a regular
basis. But if you do not usually experience any bleeding between
cycles, and you experience spotting between 8 days after ovulation
and 13 days after ovulation, it could be implantation spotting.
Another first symptom of pregnancy almost every woman reports
having early in their pregnancy is breast tenderness. The
tenderness can vary from extreme to mild. Some women report
that even a slight breeze would cause them pain, while others
say they experienced light tenderness. Many women experience
breast tenderness before their period begins, however, so
this may not always be a sign of pregnancy.
In addition to spotting and breast tenderness there are a
few other first symptoms of pregnancy. One of those is hunger.
Some women report feeling extremely hungry without being able
to get full, while others say they just felt a little hungrier
than usual. Some women say they experience extreme thirst
rather than hunger. Other symptoms of early pregnancy include
fatigue, nausea, bloating, headaches, stomach and abdominal
pains, gas, and even itchiness and dizzy spells.
As you can see, the first symptoms of pregnancy vary quite
a bit from woman to woman. Most experts say not to count on
being pregnant if you have just one or two symptoms, since
many early pregnancy symptoms are also symptoms of PMS or
the flu. But if you have several symptoms that are not normal
for you, it is probably a good sign. Just don’t get
too excited until you get a big fat positive on your home
pregnancy test!
