What were your signs?

Hi Honey, here are some symptoms of pregnancy, check them and then see your doctor

Tender, swollen breasts
One of the early signs of pregnancy is sensitive, sore breasts caused by increasing levels of hormones. The soreness may feel like an exaggerated version of how your breasts feel before your period. Your discomfort should diminish significantly after the first trimester, as your body adjusts to the hormonal changes.

Fatigue
Feeling tired all of a sudden? No, make that exhausted. No one knows for sure what causes early pregnancy fatigue, but it's possible that rapidly increasing levels of the hormone progesterone are contributing to your sleepiness.

You should start to feel more energetic once you hit your second trimester, although fatigue usually returns late in pregnancy when you're carrying around a lot more weight and some of the common discomforts of pregnancy make it more difficult to get a good night's sleep

Nausea or vomiting
If you're like most women, morning sickness won't hit until about a month after conception. (A lucky few escape it altogether.) But some women do start to feel queasy a bit earlier. And not just in the morning, either — pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting can be a problem morning, noon, or night.

About half of women with nausea feel complete relief by the beginning of the second trimester. For most others it takes another month or so for the queasiness to ease up.

Increased sensitivity to odors
If you're newly pregnant, it's not uncommon to feel repelled by the smell of a bologna sandwich or cup of coffee and for certain aromas to trigger your gag reflex. Though no one knows for sure, this may be a side effect of rapidly increasing amounts of estrogen in your system. You may also find that certain foods you used to enjoy are suddenly completely repulsive to you.

Abdominal bloating
Hormonal changes in early pregnancy may leave you feeling bloated, similar to the feeling some women have just before their period arrives. That's why your clothes may feel snugger than usual at the waistline, even early on when your uterus is still quite small.

Frequent urination
Shortly after you become pregnant, you may find yourself hurrying to the bathroom all the time. Why? Mostly because during pregnancy the amount of blood and other fluids in your body increases, which leads to extra fluid being processed by your kidneys and ending up in your bladder.

This symptom may start as early as six weeks into your first trimester and continue or worsen as your pregnancy progresses and your growing baby exerts more pressure on your bladder.

A missed period
If you're usually pretty regular and your period doesn't arrive on time, you'll probably take a pregnancy test long before you notice any of the above symptoms. But if you're not regular or you're not keeping track of your cycle, nausea and breast tenderness and extra trips to the bathroom may signal pregnancy before you realize you didn't get your period.

Your basal body temperature stays high
If you've been charting your basal body temperature and you see that your temperature has stayed elevated for 18 days in a row, you're probably pregnant

Good luck.

*LOL* I didn't have many signs as for physical. I decided after I was grumpier than usual something was wrong. I didn't know I was preg. I am now 8 weeks and still only have a few signs. But the biggest give away for me was when I stayed the same size but already my breast went from a 40 D to now being almost a double D. I cried because at a double D I am only 8 weeks along. But my big give away (what made me know I was pregnant) was the emotional swings. Oh and hating smoke and the things I "love". But now smoking is not even thought about because my child comes first.

I learn Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way. It even comprises the physical games you have got to train. I additionally learn The Brewer Medical Diet for Normal and High-Risk Pregnancy. I adopted the Brewer vitamin whilst I was once pregnant. I used the Bradley process with all 4 of my births. I additionally learn Husband Coached Childbirth, however that ebook does now not include what you have got to train to get equipped for delivery.

Everyone is different, but the first sign of possibly being pregnant is a skipped period.....If you think you are pregnant, you might want to go get it checked out. If you are a young person and are afraid to tell anyone, then go to Planned Parenthood, you can get a pregnancy test. Or you can go to the store and get a pregnancy test and do it yourself.............Good-Luck

A feeling of joy and exuberance of having a child. As the father, I also had an overwhelming feeling of joy and exuberance knowing that I wasn't going to be the one to have to go through the labor and delivery process! Yipee!

As a sidenote, contrary to what NANCYBUCK8 suggests, whatever you do... don't go to Planned Parenthood! They will try and convince you to get an abortion if you don't want the baby. They give the largest referrals for abortions in the entire country.

Instead, choose life! If you don't want the baby then give it up for adoption.

Symptoms----implantation bleeding,delay/difference in menstruation, extreme fatigue, breast tenderness, nausea, with or without vomiting, constipation, gas, and/or bloating, abdominal cramps, frequent urination, food cravings or aversion, mood swing, increased vaginal discharge, headaches, backaches, darkening of areolas.

If a home test indicates that you're pregnant----- check your health insurance and determine your coverage and options. Contact your provider to schedule your first prenatal visit. Avoid alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. Drink water often. Eat as well as you can. Rest when you feel the need.
