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

Yes it can be
With every one of my pregnancy's I have had cramping. It felt like menstral cramping. I would think I was going to start my period and I wouldn't. Even after I had a confirmed + on the test.
I had my cramping the same time I was suppose to be starting my period. I was a day late, took a pregnancy test and it was +. My cramping lasted a few weeks, sometimes very uncomfortable. It can very nerve racking while its going on but if you want piece of mind, if you've tested + then you can go to local health Dept. or Dr.

Not necissarily. sometimes you can get mild cramping when the egg implants itself into the uterine wall. Cramps are a bigger sign of an oncoming Period.

hard to say, but probably not. cramping is usually from periods and if that's it you're definetely not pregnant, have you taken a pregnancy test yet, that should be the indicator.

Yes but not everyone gets it. It is much like period pain and is caused by the uterus expanding. I had them about 7 weeks after my last period.

really early, was one of my first signs over a week before period was due. The one that really gave it away tho was Montgomerys tubercles (google them). I got these over a week before my period was due!!! Good luck
