Women most often find out about the upcoming joyful event in their life after a delay in menstruation. With a regular menstrual cycle, pregnancy at this point is only two weeks. But there are those who seek to reveal the secret of their condition even earlier than this date. Early signs of pregnancy can be divided into three categories according to their reliability.
Instructions
Step 1
The most unreliable are the most common symptoms. Of course, they are found in many, although not all, pregnant women, but also the reasons for such manifestations of the body can be a huge number of different factors. Including those not related to procreation.
Early toxicosis - nausea, aversion to certain foods, an acute negative reaction to odors - usually appears at 2-8 weeks, but can visit a woman in the first days. This is due to hormonal changes in the body.
For the same reason, the first trimester can be accompanied by increased fatigue and sleep disturbances. Increased hormone levels often cause headaches, high blood pressure, and dizziness. A decrease in immunity allows infections and colds to easily enter the body.
Already in the first days of pregnancy, a woman can feel an increase in the abdomen. Of course, this is not yet related to the child's growth. In pregnant women, swelling of the intestinal loops occurs as a result of increased gas production.
Step 2
Separately, all of the above symptoms can be caused by various disorders in the body, not related to pregnancy. But their combination should be alarming. Especially if more reliable symptoms have appeared.
For example, already in the first or second week, many women feel tingling in the uterus. The breasts can become especially sensitive already at this stage. Touching causes discomfort and pain, the volume increases, veins appear, and the skin around the nipples darkens.
Frequent urination is an early sign of pregnancy. Unfortunately, pregnant women are especially prone to thrush. Frequent chills - sometimes cold, sometimes hot - in pregnant women is caused by an increased temperature.
Step 3
The most reliable symptoms of the onset of pregnancy include implantation bleeding. It occurs 6-12 days after conception. In some women, it may show a pinkish, yellowish or brownish scanty discharge, which is sometimes mistaken for the onset of menstruation. In fact, they are associated with the introduction of a fertilized egg into the wall of the uterus. But implantation bleeding is not necessary and its absence does not mean that pregnancy is not occurring.
For those who measure basal temperature, a sharp drop in temperature by one day in the second phase becomes a bright signal of what has happened. In the future, the development of pregnancy is indicated by a temperature above 37 degrees. In the first phase of pregnancy, the mucous membranes of the vagina and cervix acquire a bluish tint.
And finally, after the second week of pregnancy, with a regular menstrual cycle, a pregnant woman has a delay. From the very first day, you can make a pregnancy test, which with a high degree of probability will confirm or deny the assumption of pregnancy.
