Did you miss your periods this month? Have you been keeping low due to morning sickness for weeks? If your partner and you have been trying for a baby for months – the above symptoms are quite indicative of your first trimester of pregnancy.

It is important to note that your pregnancy symptoms might be different from your mum’s or your sister’s. Each female body possesses a unique biological clock, so, it is quite a possibility that your pregnancy hints differ from that of your family member’s. Therefore, we have made a list of most common pregnancy symptoms so that you are the first person to know when to call for “good news”. 

1. Missed Period: This is one of the most obvious signs of pregnancy, but, as doctors say, it is not the ultimate indicative. As observed in a few cases, pregnant women, carrying a fetus of one month, experience lighter periods in comparison to the usual ones.

2. Morning sickness:  This common pregnancy ailment show up between 4-8 weeks after conception. If you are lucky, you escape morning sickness altogether, otherwise you feel nauseous and queasy at anytime of the day. If you feel like vomiting  as you get up in the morning  and the feeling of sickness continues throughout the day, you must go for a pregnancy test.
3. Breast Tenderness: Another integral sign is slight tenderness observed in your breast. It is a symptom which may begin in as early as 2 weeks after conception. Women may find changes in their breasts; they are often sore, swollen, and tender.

4. Other symptoms: These include unusual tiredness, food carvings, darkening of areolas, frequent urination, backaches, and severe headache or vomiting.

If you have been a sexually active person, then get your pregnancy test done as soon as possible and discover for yourself the pleasure of becoming pregnant.
