There are many common symptoms at this stage of early pregnancy. Not all pregnant women have all the symptoms, but you are likely to have at least one or two of them. Take a look at the symptoms common at this stage of early pregnancy:
1. Missing Menstrual Period
One of the first indicator for women is to miss their menstrual period. Sometimes it is late, but a pregnant woman will skip it altogether. For some women, they suspect they are pregnant before they even miss their period. There are other symptoms that can help lead them to that conclusion
2. Exhaustion
Another common symptom at this stage of early pregnancy is to have exhaustion. Considering all the work your body is doing – making a new being – no wonder it takes its toll on the body! Also, there are hormonal changes in the pregnant woman’s body that can make the mommy-to-be feel practically drugged.
3. Headaches or Back Pain
It is also common to have headaches or back pain early in pregnancy. This is caused by the hormonal shifts as well as the other physical changes to the body that come with pregnancy.
4. Frequent Bathroom Visit
Another symptom that is common is the need to go to the bathroom much more often than before.
5. Changes In Body
Most women in the early pregnancy stage notice that their breasts become swollen and tender. These changes are in preparation for breastfeeding your baby.
6. Morning Sickness.
Morning Sickness is probably the most frustrating symptom at this early pregnancy stage. While it doesn’t stick just with morning (some women have nausea all day) and not all women even get it, it is very common among pregnant women. Fortunately, it usually only lasts for the first trimester.
