The first symptoms of pregnancy

The earliest and most obvious sign of pregnancy is the cessation of menstruation. In addition, some expectant mothers may experience breast pain, frequent urination, increased vaginal discharge, etc., while some pregnant women may experience nausea, dizziness, and emotionality. Some people often experience nausea and vomiting in the early morning. If you have the above clinical manifestations, you should highly suspect that you are pregnant. Some people experience mild early pregnancy symptoms, while others experience severe symptoms.

1. What are the symptoms of early pregnancy?

1. Stopping of menstruation

If a couple has sexual intercourse around the ovulation period without taking any contraceptive measures, and their menstrual cycles are normal, but they suddenly experience amenorrhea symptoms for more than 5 days, they may be pregnant.

2. Nausea and vomiting

Many pregnant women will experience morning sickness starting around the 5th week of pregnancy. Nausea may occur especially in the morning and evening, and vomiting may occur without any reason.

3. Breast enlargement and tenderness

In the first week or two after conception, your breasts will become larger and softer.

4. Stopping of menstruation

This is the most easily detectable symptom of pregnancy. As long as a woman of childbearing age has normal menstruation, if she has not had her period more than two weeks after sexual intercourse, she may be pregnant.

5. Breast pain and itching

Breast tenderness and itching are common symptoms in early pregnancy. In addition, there will be some other changes, such as darker color of the areola, obvious veins under the skin of the breast, and obvious protrusion of the nipple.

6. Fatigue

In the early stages of pregnancy, you may feel tired and sleepy.

7. Frequent urination

During the third month of pregnancy, frequent urination often occurs because the bladder capacity becomes smaller due to the pressure of the expanding uterus.

2. How long does it take for pregnancy to react

Women will experience pregnancy symptoms around six weeks of pregnancy, such as delayed menstruation, continued increase in basal body temperature, nausea and vomiting, frequent urination, breast and skin changes, etc. These early pregnancy symptoms usually last until three months of pregnancy. But not everyone will experience a reaction in early pregnancy.

3. Key points of prenatal checkup in one month of pregnancy

In order to understand the development of the fetus in time, expectant mothers must do prenatal check-ups. In the first month of pregnancy, the baby is just a tiny embryo, and the mother's physical condition has not changed significantly compared to before pregnancy. So the purpose of this month's examination is to confirm pregnancy and rule out ectopic pregnancy. Adjust your mindset and try to keep a good mood. Listen to the obstetrician's introduction to pregnancy knowledge, understand the fetal development process, and try to be mentally and psychologically prepared. You can also communicate with mothers frequently. Mothers have accumulated some valuable experience about pregnancy, and it is very helpful to listen to these experiences.
