There are several signs of early pregnancy, some of which women may be less aware of. According to experts, some of the early signs are:

  1. Absence of menstruation
  2. Muscle spasms
  3. Pain in the breast
  4. Fatigue
  5. Nausea
  6. Minor bleeding (spotting)
  7. A passion for food

Many people claim that they know the signs of pregnancy. However, there are some early pregnancy symptoms that are less well known, such as implantation spotting and leg cramps. 

Pregnancy tests do not always show accurate results. For this reason, it is important for women to notice other pregnancy symptoms in the first trimester itself. 

Here are ten basic pregnancy symptoms that everyone should be aware of.

Absence of menstruation

Missing a period is a common sign that a woman has entered the early stages of pregnancy. 

During menstruation, the inner lining of the uterus breaks down and is shed with a menstrual cycle that lasts three to seven days.

When a woman becomes pregnant, the constant production of the hormone progesterone maintains the lining of the uterus, the inner wall. This means that menstruation does not occur.


Muscle spasms

During the first trimester of pregnancy, a woman may experience muscle spasms in the soles of her feet as well as in her legs and thighs.

This change is caused by a change in the way the body uses calcium.

Dr. Mazumdar, senior consultant and gynecologist at SM Polyclinic, says: 'Calcium naturally obtained through food in the body of a pregnant woman is used in the formation of the baby's bones, teeth and other organs. happens.' 

"It causes calcium deficiency in the body and weakens bones and muscles."


Pain in the breast

Another common symptom that women may experience with the changes in their body in early pregnancy is increased breast tenderness. 

As explained by the NHS, during pregnancy women's breasts become more painful and tender than usual and usually increase in size.

More physical changes in the breast may include more visible veins and darkening of the nipples.


Fatigue

When a woman becomes pregnant, changes in hormones in her body make her feel more tired. 

High levels of the hormones estrogen and progesterone can cause severe fatigue, especially in the first trimester of pregnancy.


Nausea

Morning sickness or morning sickness is a condition that some women experience during pregnancy. 

However, this nausea can occur at any time of the day. 

According to the NHS, morning sickness can appear up to about six weeks after your last period.


Minor bleeding (spotting) 

Although women do not menstruate during pregnancy, they sometimes experience light bleeding.

According to the BabyCenter website, one in four pregnant women may experience it during their first trimester.

It is common for women's food preferences to change during pregnancy. 

Past favorite foods can seem bad and bad good.

As mentioned earlier, the levels of the hormones estrogen and progesterone increase dramatically in a pregnant woman. 

As Claireblue points out, moods change early in pregnancy. 

Giving birth is an emotional experience so a combination of the hormonal changes of pregnancy and the nature of pregnancy can cause emotional changes in pregnant women.


Frequent need to go to the toilet

In the early stages of pregnancy, women need to use the toilet more frequently.

According to Kids Spot, this is due to increased blood flow to the kidneys.

Also, the increased growth of the uterus in the first trimester can put pressure on the bladder.


Severe vomiting

Although not many people are familiar with the term hyperemesis gravidarum, it affects one in every 100 pregnant women, according to Clearblue. 

Hyperemesis gravidarum refers to severe vomiting during pregnancy. 

Women who are affected by hyperemesis gravidarum may be affected throughout the pregnancy, or it may improve over time.

It is important for pregnant women to consult a doctor if you experience severe nausea.
