Boston,
If you have been trying to conceive a baby, you may have talked to many people regarding the early symptoms of pregnancy and have probably gotten many different responses,
everything from cravings for peanut butter on popsicles to feeling sleepy or dizzy.
The fact is, no matter who you ask about early signs of pregnancy you will always hear
something different. So, in an effort to sort out the facts from the myths here are some of the early signs of pregnancy that you can count on.
One of the most common signs is a missed menstrual period. This is the most common symptom women attribute to being pregnant. Although, in some cases women continue to have light bleeding or spotting throughout their pregnancy. So, it is important to recognize some of the other possible symptoms for pregnancy. Such as sore or tender breasts which is brought on by an increase of blood volume due to increased levels of hormones in the body when the egg is fertilized.
Some women report feeling crampy as a result of implantation of the egg or extreme tiredness or fatigue as the baby begins to use up the calories that provide the body with energy. Other symptoms include nausea when reading in the car or taking a flight, mild headaches and increased urination as your body adjusts to the increased level of hormones.
While all of these symptoms may be early indicators of pregnancy, the only sure way to know is to take a home pregnancy test from your local pharmacy or get a test done by your gynecologist.
