Different women feel and enjoy pregnancy in different ways and the very early symptoms of pregnancy can vary in intensity and duration - and some women might not experience some common symptoms of the pregnancy at all. However, there are some very early symptoms of pregnancy seen commonly in pregnant woman listed below –
Mood swings
There will be flood of hormones in pregnant woman’s body in early pregnancy that can make her unusually excited and weepy. Mood swings are very common, particularly in the first trimester.
Dullness and dizziness
As pregnant women’s blood vessels dilate and the blood pressure will drop, the women might feel lightheaded or giddiness. The list of very early symptoms in pregnancy does contain faintness that can be triggered by low blood glucose levels.
Raised basal body temperature
Pregnant woman’s basal body temperature is her oral temperature when she first wakes up in the morning. Such temperature will increase slightly soon after ovulation and will remain at that level until her next period. If she has been charting her basal body temperature for determining when she ovulated, its continued elevation for more than a couple of weeks might mean she is pregnant.
Are very early symptoms of pregnancy true?
Alas, such symptoms are not so unique for declaring pregnancy. Some can indicate that the woman is getting sick or that her period is about to start. In a same way, she can be pregnant without experiencing any of those very early symptoms of pregnancy.
Still, if the woman misses her period or notices any of the tip-offs on the list mentioned above, she might want to get a home pregnancy test — particularly if she is not keeping track of her menstrual cycle or if it differs widely from one month to the coming one. If the home pregnancy test turns to be positive, making an appointment with the health care provider, nurse practitioner or midwife is not a bad idea. The sooner the pregnancy is detected, the better one can begin prenatal care.
