What are the Symptoms of Pregnancy
March 6, 2008
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.
