What are the signs of pregnancy?

In the early stages of pregnancy, many people do not feel the presence of a small life in their belly. But for some mothers who have given birth to a baby, they know that there are some important signs in the early stage to show the arrival of the baby, so let’s take a look at the signs of pregnant women introduced by the mothers. I hope that the editor’s introduction can help everyone.

1. Cessation of menstruation: This is the most common sign of pregnancy that most people notice. As long as a woman is of childbearing age and has normal menstruation, she may be pregnant if her period stops for more than two weeks after sexual intercourse. But not having your period does not mean you are pregnant. There are many reasons for not having your period, such as poor ovarian function, abnormal hormone secretion, busy work, exam stress, etc., which can cause late menstruation. Therefore, it is best to get a doctor's diagnosis, which is the safest.

2. Frequent feeling of nausea and vomiting: Almost all pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy often feel nausea and vomiting, especially at the beginning of the day. These symptoms vary from person to person, and some people have very mild symptoms, while others have very severe symptoms. Unless you have severe nausea and vomiting, you don't need to see a doctor. Otherwise, these are normal phenomena in early pregnancy.

3. Breast pain, swelling and itching: Breast pain, swelling and itching are physiological phenomena in early pregnancy. In addition, there will be other changes such as darkening of areola color, obvious veins under the breast skin, and obvious protrusion of nipples.

4. Easy to get tired: You may get tired easily in the early stages of pregnancy and often feel sleepy.

5. Vaginal mucosal discoloration: In the early stages of pregnancy, the vaginal mucosa may become darker in color due to congestion. This will be determined by your doctor.

6. Changes in skin color: Skin pigmentation or stretch marks may occur on the abdominal wall, especially in the later stages of pregnancy.

7. Frequent urination: In the third month of pregnancy, the bladder is compressed by the growing uterus, causing the bladder capacity to decrease, resulting in frequent urination.

8. Increased basal body temperature: The basal body temperature can reflect the body's energy metabolism in a quiet state. The basal body temperature of women of childbearing age is related to the changes in the ovarian hormone cycle. The body temperature will rise by 0.3-0.5℃ after ovulation until 1-2 days before menstruation or the first day of menstruation. If the basal body temperature rises and the menstruation is not due yet, and the basal body temperature continues to not drop for 16 days, the possibility of conception is greater. If it continues for 3 months, it is basically certain that you are pregnant, but you need to rule out factors that can increase the body temperature, such as systemic infections, colds, etc.

After reading the answer to the question "What are the signs of pregnancy?" introduced above, have you learned a lot? If you experience the above signs, you should consider whether you are pregnant. If you are not sure, you can go to the hospital for a thorough examination and take care of your body and health.
