- Although stress, weight loss, hormonal changes, and other factors can cause women to miss menstrual periods, a late or missing period is often the first sign of pregnancy.
- Some women may notice light bleeding, cramping or spotting about 6 to 12 days after conception. This happens when the fertilized egg implants into wall of the woman's uterus.
- The surge in hormones associated with pregnancy can lead to painful headaches in newly pregnant women.
- Newly pregnant women may notice their breasts are swollen, enlarged, tender, and sore. That's due to the hormonal changes in the woman's body.
- Having to urinate a lot is another early sign of pregnancy that appears during the first trimester of pregnancy.
- Fatigue can begin after the first week of conception. It's easy for a pregnant woman to miss this symptom, since other illnesses or stress can easily be confused with pregnancy.
