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.
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.
Fatigue/Tiredness:
Feeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception.
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.
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.
Headaches:
The sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy.
Frequent Urination:
Around 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom.
Darkening of Areolas:
If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker.
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.

Are you wondering if your extreme lethargy or tender breasts are early signs of pregnancy? While every woman's body responds differently, there are some common pregnancy symptoms.
Instructions
* STEP 1: Calculate when your period is due. If you have a regular cycle and you keep track of it, a late period is one of the earliest signs of pregnancy.
* STEP 2: Notice any other changes in your body. Are you extremely sleepy? Are your breasts tender? Are you moody? Though sometimes subtle, these changes can be clear indicators.
* STEP 3: Buy a home pregnancy test at a pharmacy or grocery store, or online. Choose one with two tests per box so you can double-check your results.
* STEP 4: Test after you miss a period, or 14 days after you think you conceived.
* STEP 5: Read and follow the test instructions carefully. Some tell you to urinate in a cup; others say to urinate right on the test stick.
* STEP 6: If the test is positive, make an appointment with your doctor to confirm with other tests and a physical exam.
* STEP 7: Retest after a few days if the test is negative and you still suspect that you're pregnant.
Tips & Warnings
* Do the test first thing in the morning, when hormone concentrations are highest.
* Home tests claim to be 97 percent accurate. When there are mistakes, they're usually false negatives; false positives are very rare.

You need to get a pregnancy test, sweety! And if you are pregnant, please make the right decision. Nothing is ever too hard to handle.... if you wish to speak to someone (whatever the results) please let me know... I'm a single mother of a 2 year old (only difference is I'm 28 years old) -- it's hard for me but it can be done! You are very young but no matter what the outcome is always know there is support out there... if you have doubts, hurry & get your PT test right away... most PT tests will have (2) in a box - just to be sure but many a time you will not get an accurate result if it's too early -- the chemicals released when pregnant take a little time to be detected... GOOD LUCK, sweety! I hope all works well w/ you & again there's a listening ear right here!!!!! :)
