Pregnancy Symptoms and Signs

Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding the signs and symptoms of pregnancy is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy.

Some women experience signs or symptoms of pregnancy within a week of conception. For other women, pregnancy symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy signs symptoms. If you have been sexually active and are experiencing any of the following symptoms it is important to take a pregnancy test.

Implantation Bleeding Delay/Difference in Menstruation Swollen/Tender Breasts Fatigue/Tiredness

Frequent Urination Nausea/Morning Sickness Headaches Dizziness
