Early Signs of Pregnancy
We've all done it. That abdominal pain means implantation, when it is actually gas. The recent weight gain is because you must be pregnant and not related to all the cookies you were consuming. Feeling tired must mean you are pregnant... not that you stayed up too late last night.
Well, here are some early signs of pregnancy to add to the things you can look for and obsess about... and maybe it will mean that you are pregnant!
These are the symptoms that can show up before your missed period... because after that, you can take a urine pregnancy test. (But if it is negative, don't rely on it yet! See this article on the accuracy of home pregnancy tests.)
2 weeks before next expected period: Morning Sickness
1 week before next expected period: Tender Breasts, More visible veins in breasts, Sensitive Nipples, Fatigue
A few days before your next expected period: Increased sensitivity to smell, Implantation Bleeding and Cramping which occurs when the fertilized egg implants in the uterus and is usually lighter than a regular period.
