How many days after conception did you all start feeling signs of pregnancy?

(March 2, 2010)

Everyone is different and each pregnancy is unique too. Pregnancy signs in different women can start off differently too. Some women can start showing symptoms of pregnancy almost immediately whereas may go through their entire pregnancy with out really feeling any different. Pregnancy symptoms can also be different for different women in their frequency, intensity and in their duration. Another point to remember is that the early pregnancy symptoms can actually be very similar to a woman’s regular pre menstrual feelings and discomforts. For those women who have not been consciously trying to conceive the early signs that they feel can be put down to the occurrence of one’s period. There are an entire range of both emotional and physical changes that a woman can feel when pregnant. Different women can feel these symptoms at different stages in their pregnancy. Some of the early signs of pregnancy may be so subtle that they may not be noticed at all, hence conducting a home pregnancy test can help prove the results at this time.

Nausea, queasiness and vomiting can start occurring as early as a week into the pregnancy. Some women feel this early in the morning right after getting out of bed or after trying to drink something on an empty stomach. It is referred to as morning sickness. Other women may feel these signs during the course of day or in the evening and for yet others the feeling of nausea may persist throughout the day.

Some of the other early signs of pregnancy are a missed period. This is one of the first and most obvious indications of a pregnancy. Some women just have an intuitive feeling that they are pregnant. They may have mood swings, feel excessively tired or queasy. They may also suffer from heartburn or constipation. Others may have feeling oh heaviness in the breasts or extra sensitive breasts. This is a relatively noticeable early symptom of pregnancy. It is particularly noticeable when sleeping or showering or exercising. A dull ache in the lower back is also fairly common as a first sign of pregnancy. Fatigue is another early sign of pregnancy. A pregnant woman will probably end up going to bed earlier than normal especially in the first few days and months of pregnancy. Frequent urination is another noticeable early sign of pregnancy that friends or co workers may comment up on. When the uterus starts swelling due to pregnancy it puts pressure on the bladder. Excess fluids get processed by the kidneys and bladder.
