Signs of Getting Pregnant

Pregnancy brings many changes in the body of the mother. The signs of getting pregnant are more or less but still they vary from one woman to another. There are few women who start to experience signs and symptoms of pregnancy within first few days of actual conception. However there are few women who are unable to notice these signs even few weeks after getting pregnant.

Many women feel confused as many signs of being pregnant are similar to the signs experienced by women just before the days of menstruation. The only solid sign of being pregnant is slight increase in basal body temperature; however this sign is often ignored by the pregnant women.

The earliest signs of pregnancy are implantation bleeding. This occurs after around 6 to 12 days of conception. The implantation bleeding takes place when the fertilized egg is imbedded in the uterine wall. Few women also experience cramping along with spotting.

Another most commonly noticed sign of pregnancy is missing the periods. This is the most common and well-known pregnancy symptoms. However there are few women who bleed even after conception. This bleeding is lighter as well as shorter in length. If a sexually active woman misses her period it is better to go for a pregnancy test.

Another pregnancy symptom is vomiting and nausea. These vomiting, nausea and queasy feelings come under the umbrella term of morning sickness. It is important to note here these queasy feelings are not only confined to the morning. The morning sickness can happen at any time of the day or even night. The exact reasons behind these queasy feelings are not yet clearly known. It is generally recommended to eat smaller meals spread throughout the day; as it is helpful in reducing the intensity of morning sickness. It is also helpful to eat cornflakes or plain crackers before getting up early in the morning.

Just after two week of conception the breasts become swollen, sore and tender. The nipples become darker and larger soon after conception. When pregnancy is around 6 weeks then mom-to-be have to take frequent visits to the rest room; as the expanding uterus puts pressure on the bladder.

Drastic changes in the level of hormones are responsible for tiredness during pregnancy. These hormones also result in slowing down of bowel movement.

Some of the above symptoms results in irritable behavior and mood swings. The situation can be handled well with the help of proper diet and healthy eating habits.
