I Can't Take It

The smells that you used to love to smell won't be the same. The stores that you used to love to go into, won't feel the same. All of your senses are so sensitive right now and just the thought of smelling something will send you straight to the bathroom. It is so frustrating to not be able to eat at your favorite restaurants because you just can't handle smell the variety of foods.

They Look Like Saucers

Not only do your breast grow larger at this time but your nipples also grow. Some women have even compared them to saucers. The areola, the area around your nipples, will also darken. So I guess they look like dark saucers. Ha!

I Want It All

Being pregnant is the only time that you have an excuse to eat like crazy. Some women even eat foods that they usually wouldn't eat. And the cravings are wonderful to a lot of women. Just the thought of being able to eat just about anything and not worry about it is wonderful. So go ahead and have seconds. You are eating for two.

Bigger Breast Without Surgery

This sign my just be the best for some women. Pregnancy not only makes your waist bigger, but also your breast. Some women enjoy their bigger breast, but others hate it. Sometimes you get to keep your enlarged breast even after you have your baby.

So, So Tired

An early sign that you may experience is fatigue. At the beginning of my pregnancy, I was so tired. All I wanted to do was sleep and that is all that I did. Even though I was taking my pre-natal vitamins and iron supplements, I was still tired.

Stay Away!

Something else that may tell you that you are pregnant is horrible mood swings. It can get so bad that no one will want to be around you. Every little thing will begin to get on your nerves. No matter how big or small, you will definitely be agitated by pretty much everybody. My advice to you, just stay to your self and try not to get too upset. Good luck.

Period or No Period

"Oh, I missed my period. I must be pregnant." This statement has been falsely stated so many times. But really, how sure are you? Just because you have missed a period or two doesn't mean that you are pregnant. Birth control pills, hormonal injections, breastfeeding, low body weight, fast weight loss, certain medications, menopause, stress, and even obesity can cause you to have an abnormal menstrual cycle. It's better to know than to just guess. So if you are missing periods, you should go get tested.

Morning Sickness

Lots of people think that just because they don't have morning sickness that they aren't pregnant. Wrong!! Lots of women don't experience morning sickness. And the ones that do, sometimes they don't even have to experience vomiting. How lucky can you be?

Fact

One sign that you might experience is not having a menstrual cycle. But it is possible for you to have one even though you are pregnant. It's also possible for you to have a cycle the entire time you are pregnant.

Early Symptoms of Pregnancy

Knowing the earliest symptoms and signs of pregnancy is very important. Not just for you but also for your baby. Lots of women cause birth defects because they continue their bad habits while they are pregnant. Not because they don't care, but because they don't know. Some of the symptoms get named for other things. "I'm stressed out so my period is late", or "I have a stomach flu or virus and that's why I'm vomiting" are a couple statements made by women that don't know that they are pregnant. The best thing is knowing the symptoms and signs so that you can know what to look for. If you think that you are, you should immediately get tested and "act" like you are pregnant by making the healthiest choices for you and your baby.
