Early Pregnancy Symptoms
Early Pregnancy Symptoms – Imagined Or Real?
Executive Summary By Leesuh L Smith
If you’re like most women who are trying to conceive, you spend each month obsessing over your possible early pregnancy symptoms. Instead of disappointing yourself yet again, try to take an objective look at your symptoms.
So, exactly how do you stay objective while keeping track of possible symptoms?
1. Keep a journal of possible symptoms each day of your menstrual cycle. Some possible symptoms would include spotting, fatigue, breast tenderness, cramping or bloating. Some possible insignificant symptoms would include headaches, pinching sensations in the abdomen or bluish veins appearing in the breasts.
2. Even things we don’t notice in ourselves may be noticed by someone from the outside. Don’t put the thought in their head by asking if they’ve noticed something in particular, but rather just ask them generally if they notice anything different about you.
3. Along with any symptoms you notice each day, write down any events occurring in your life that may explain them. Many symptoms are very similar to an impending menstrual cycle and so you have to be careful not to automatically assume that a symptom is an absolute sign, one way or another.
Early Pregnancy Symptoms Discharge, Heartburn, Nausea and More
Executive Summary By Jessica Spinner
There are many common early pregnancy symptoms. Discharge from the vagina is almost universal in the early weeks of a pregnancy. This increase in the discharge is due to the increase in the growth of the cells lining the vagina. The walls naturally start to thicken as soon as the egg is fertilized and this thickening can cause you to have a discharge of a white, milky fluid. This discharge may actually continue throughout the pregnancy.
Other symptoms of this that will require you to have medical treatment in the form of creams and vaginal suppositories include itching and burning sensations. Douching will not have any effect on the normal discharge you experience during pregnancy.
Morning Sickness. You may also develop an aversion to foods you once loved to eat or to the smell of certain foods being cooked. These food aversions and the nausea are not harmful and are a normal part of carrying a baby in the womb. The sick feelings tend to abate at about the 13th or 14th week, although some women continue to feel sick all through the pregnancy. Constipation. This complaint affects a large proportion of pregnant women. This problem tends to worsen just after the first trimester. You can help ease the problem by making sure you drink plenty of water, getting plenty of exercise and including foods high in fibre in your diet.
Dizziness or Fainting. During pregnancy the blood vessels dilate at a dramatic rate and the amount of blood may be too much for the vessels. Fatique. Eating foods that are rich in protein and iron can also help to reduce the feelings of tiredness.
