Boston: Pregnancy Symptoms - Guide For Couples

Boston,

As soon as a woman gets pregnant, pregnancy symptoms will start to show on the coming weeks and the signs vary from woman to woman. The most common reaction to early signs of pregnancy is disbelief and then followed by joy. However, pregnancy symptoms don’t confirm pregnancy unless you take a pregnancy test and consult your doctor. To help you determine the right time to test for pregnancy, here are some of the most common pregnancy signs.

One of the most alarming pregnancy symptoms is missing a menstrual cycle. This is alarming to those women who have regular menstrual cycle and usually prompts women make a research about other pregnancy signs or do a pregnancy test. For women who have irregular cycles, they usually experience other signs such as breast tenderness, morning sickness, etc. before they realize that they might really be pregnant. However, this sign doesn’t always indicate pregnancy as it can be caused by other disorders.

Some women ignore the sign of missing a period especially when they are not having regular menstrual cycle or are taking hormonal pills.

Morning sickness is also a classic sign as what you can see in movies. A woman is nauseated to a certain kind of smell or taste that she didn’t loathed before. Exhaustion may also be experienced not only on the early weeks but all throughout pregnancy.

As opposed to women’s heightened sense of smell and taste during early pregnancy, food craving is also a classic. The reason behind this symptom is still unknown but some say that it is the body’s way to get nutrients need by the growing baby. There are also times that you crave for some food during an odd time of the day and it doesn’t feel good if you’re not getting it. However, a woman may like mangoes for now but when you’re the male partner is back carrying the food, the woman already lose that craving and starts demanding another food.

Some male partners ignore their wives thinking that women are just acting. But I hope men can read this and know that it is not a drama. Unexplained craving really happens during early pregnancy and it doesn’t help if you have a not supportive partner.

If you are trying to get pregnant, you must have a good knowledge about pregnancy symptoms as some appears because of other reasons. If you experienced one pregnancy symptom, please continue observing until you experience the other pregnancy symptoms. It would be great if you use a pregnancy test or consult your doctor.
