Pregnancy symptoms can also vary in their intensity, frequency and duration. Most women equate a missed menstrual period with the possibility of being pregnant, but other symptoms and signs are experienced by most women in the early stages of pregnancy., Not every woman has every symptom during her entire pregnancy, and some women experience no symptoms at the beginning of their pregnancy

Pregnancy occurs when an egg is fertilized by a sperm, grows inside a woman’s uterus (womb), and develops into a baby. Nearly every woman experiences some symptoms of pregnancy at some point, even if they do not realize that pregnancy is causing their physical or emotional issues.

You may experience certain physical signs and symptoms that may indicate that you are pregnant as early as within a week of conception. Other early signs may emerge over the first few weeks.  When you first become pregnant, your metabolism steps up a few gears in order to support your developing baby as well as your own body, which creates one big workload

Pregnancy symptoms vary from woman to woman, but there are some telltale signs that usually signal the beginning of a new life. A missed menstrual cycle is a strong indicator that you are pregnant. Some women get symptoms within a week of conception and others may not get any at all.

What are the Symptoms of Pregnancy

1.  fatigue

2.  nausea and/or vomiting (aka morning sickness)

3.  breast changes such as soreness, fullness, tingling nipples, darkening of the areolas, and/or veins becoming more apparent

4.  Morning sickness is one of the telltale signs of early pregnancy. Most women feel some sickness around four to eight weeks of pregnancy, but the queasiness can begin as early as two weeks after conception

5.  Missed period or a period with less bleeding than normal

6.  Backaches

7.  Mood Swings and raging hormones – the sudden changes in hormone activity as your body adjusts to its new pregnant state can cause emotionality and mood swings.
