Early Signs of Pregnancy: There are many signs of pregnancy. In some cases these early signs may occur for reasons other than pregnancy. For example, if a woman is unusually stressed or active, she may experience one or more common pregnancy signs. Early signs and symptoms of pregnancy include:
- a missed period
- nausea or vomiting
- requent urination
- tenderness and fullness of breasts
- fatigue
- changes in appetite
Because stress or activity levels can create many of these signs, a pregnancy test is the best way to tell if you are pregnant. We offer a lab-quality pregnancy test free of charge.
Later Signs of Pregnancy: As a pregnancy progresses, the signs and symptoms become more pronounced and harder to miss. Some of these pregnancy signs include: an enlargement of the abdomen weight gain or loss aches such as backaches or headaches quickening (feeling of fetal movement) pregnancy mask (discoloration of the face) food cravings
Trained medical personnel can also detect additional signs and symptoms of pregnancy with a physical exam, Doppler testing, or an ultrasound. These signs and symptoms include changes in the size and shape of the uterus, changes in the cervix, or fetal heart signs or movements. We offer Dopper testing and ultrasound free of charge.
