Many women know when they could be pregnant and are looking at the very early signs of pregnancy to see if indeed they are pregnant. What are some of these early pregnancy signs that usually occur before week 5 of pregnancy?
Tenderness in Breasts
Early signs of pregnancy are the breasts becoming very tender as well as the feeling of a bloated abdomen. As these pregnancy symptoms are very similar to the signs of the body shortly before the period comes in, it can be very confusing. Many Women also start urinating more frequently a week or so after having conceived. The female body temperature may also rise a little bit about a week after conceiving. This early pregnancy symptom occurs due to ovulation. The increased body temperature might stay until the time when the next period is usually expected.
Spotting
Pinkish or brown spotting similar like at the beginning of the menstrual period is among the early signs of pregnancy. The discharge is an important pregnancy symptom as it is not as heavy as normal menstrual bleeding. At this point it is essential that the pregnancy can be confirmed through a pregnancy test. If there is excessive bleeding while the test shows a positive result then the expecting mother should consult immediately with her OBGYN. This early sign of pregnancy often occurs in the case of an embryo attaching itself to the wrong part of the uterus.
Fatigue and Restlessness
Pregnant women often experience extreme fatigue and restlessness in the very early part of their pregnancy. This is again a pregnancy symptom that can be extremely confusing. It is similar like any other form of tiredness that the body experiences as an example due to stress and physical exhaustion. The cramping of the uterus, due to heavy exercising or when experiencing an orgasm, may be recognized as an early sign of pregnancy, too.
How can a Woman know for sure that she is pregnant in the first month?
There is no 100% sure way of knowing that a woman is pregnant in the first one month after conceiving. Most of the early signs of pregnancy can be easily misleading. A pregnancy test and an exam by an OBGYN is the only way one can know for sure.
