The definitive way to determine if she is pregnant is for her to take a pregnancy test. If she is pregnant, both of you have far more important things to be concerned about than the condition of her hair and skin. Pregnancy tests are inexpensive and available at almost any drug store. Get the facts and stop guessing.

The reason pregnant women's nails grow quicker and skin looks healthier is because of the prenatal vitamins they take! She needs to get a test and find out for sure and be responsible!!!!

The skin and nails "health" would be from taking prenatal vitamins which are prescribed from a doctor, not from the pregnancy itself. Eating more is a sign but could be from alot of things. These aren't real exact symptoms for pregnancy....have her take a pregnancy test. She will also miss her monthy period.

Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding pregnancy symptoms is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception. For other women, symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy symptoms.

Implantation Bleeding:
Implantation bleeding can be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. About 6-12 days after conception, the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. Some women will experience spotting as well as some cramping.

Other Explanations: Actual menstruation, altered menstruation, changes in birth control pill, infection, or abrasion from intercourse.

Delay/Difference in Menstruation:
A delayed or missed menstruation is the most common pregnancy symptom leading a woman to test for pregnancy. When you become pregnant, your next period should be missed. Many women can bleed while they are pregnant, but typically the bleeding will be shorter or lighter than a normal period. This symptom is commonly explained by other reasons. If you have been sexually active and have missed a period, it is recommended that you take a test: Order my pregnancy test

Other Explanations: Excessive weight gain/loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, ceasing to take the birth control pill, or breast-feeding.

Swollen/Tender Breasts:
Swollen or tender breasts is a pregnancy symptom which may begin as early as 1-2 weeks after conception. Women may notice changes in their breasts; they may be tender to the touch, sore, or swollen.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation (PMS) can also cause your breasts to be swollen or tender.

Fatigue/Tiredness:
Feeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception.

Other Explanations: Stress, exhaustion, depression, common cold or flu, or other illnesses can also leave you feeling tired or fatigued.

Nausea/Morning Sickness:
This well-known pregnancy symptom will often show up between 2-8 weeks after conception. Some women are fortunate to not deal with morning sickness at all, while others will feel nauseous throughout most of their pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Food poisoning, stress, or other stomach disorders can also cause you to feel queasy.

Backaches:
Lower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Impending menstruation, stress, other back problems, and physical or mental strains.

Headaches:
The sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, impending menstruation, eye strain, or other ailments can be the source of frequent or chronic headaches.

Frequent Urination:
Around 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom.

Other Explanations: Urinary tract infection, diabetes, increasing liquid intake, or taking excessive diuretics.

Darkening of Areolas:
If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance unrelated to pregnancy or may be a leftover effect from a previous pregnancy.

Food Cravings:
While you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women will feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Poor diet, lack of a certain nutrient, stress, depression, or impending menstruation.

do a pregnancy test, and like the others have said, it's the vitamins that make nails grow, and skin immaculate.

oh, and not all pregnant girls in the first trimester get fat for all who have implied that, that's just silly.

some women lose weight, and there is a difference in fat and pregnant......

Go buy her a pregnancy test and be there when she takes it, that is a very good way to tell. You can even get pregnancy tests from the dollar store if you're tight on money.

No. Now, if she's missing periods and getting a fat belly that's a different story. Ask her to take a pregnancy test.

If a test comes back positive, than she is pregnant. I wouldn't take these as signs.

Yeah, take a pregnacy test. If she is eating a lot, and getting odd food cravings, then there's a high chance she is.

Could be, but then again it could be something else. I would suggest that you suggest to her to take a test. If she is pregnant, and she is having these symptoms, it should show on a test.
