When mothers-to-be are planning to get pregnant, they always look forward to receiving the good news of pregnancy as soon as possible. That’s why they often buy a pregnancy test early and keep testing every day for less than a month until a second red line appears on the test, or until their aunt arrives and declares that they have failed this month. Although every pregnant woman has different signs of early pregnancy, there are some subtle signs that we can use to deduce whether we are pregnant before checking the pregnancy test. These signs are not the well-known “nausea and vomiting” early pregnancy reactions, which often occur in the first 40 days of pregnancy, but rather the subtle physical changes. So, let’s see if you have the following similar symptoms Rapidly growing nails When you notice that your nails have been growing rapidly without warning recently, this may indicate that you are pregnant. The increase in hormone secretion after pregnancy will stimulate the growth of hair while promoting the growth of nails in pregnant mothers, which is why some pregnant women become hairy after pregnancy. And this sign of rapid nail growth may also precede the pregnancy test. Sensitive sense of smell and taste If you find that your sense of smell and taste have suddenly become unusually sensitive recently, then you should check whether you are pregnant. Early in pregnancy, your sense of smell and taste sensors become unusually sensitive due to changes in hormone levels, so many of your preferences begin to change and you become uncomfortable eating certain foods or smelling fumes. If you’ve ever had a baby, you’ll find that this feeling is déjà vu, all because of the embryo in your body. Breast tenderness For many women, breast tenderness is the first sign of pregnancy because your body is starting to prepare for future breastfeeding. However, many women also experience breast tenderness before their period, and it is relatively difficult to distinguish between the two. However, some women experience breast tenderness in addition to nipple pain and abnormal sensitivity, which is also one of the subtle signs of pregnancy. Bloating Morning sickness is not the only early reaction to pregnancy, but bloating and even constipation are sometimes subtle signs of pregnancy at an earlier stage. The increased progesterone in pregnant women’s bodies can cause their digestive functions to be impaired, resulting in food accumulation and flatulence, and even abnormal bowel movements. Some newly pregnant women have a surprisingly round belly, but it’s really just flatulence. Some pregnant women experience spotting when they are supposed to have their period. This often makes you think that your aunt is coming to visit, but it is actually a small amount of bleeding after the embryo has laid. Look closely at the amount and color of your bleeding and you will see the difference between it and aunt. Aunt Pain You may think you are about to have your period, but actually, you are wrong! The reason is that in early pregnancy, the fertilized egg lays on the endometrium and it produces a vague pain similar to the peeling of the endometrium during aunt. Increased vaginal discharge When you are pregnant, the increased progesterone will cause your cervix to close and your vaginal discharge to increase. The milky, sticky discharge blocks pathogenic microorganisms from invading the uterine cavity and serves to protect the fetus. And this symptom appears very early, often even before the pregnancy test. Dizziness This is also a subtle sign that often occurs in the body during early pregnancy. Pregnancy dizziness may be due to low blood sugar or dehydration that is more difficult to tolerate, so as a pregnant woman you need to be careful to eat promptly when you are hungry and get enough water. Drowsiness and headache If you have sleeplessness and headache all day long, don’t blame it on poor night sleep. Drowsiness and headaches are common after pregnancy and are due to the increase of hormones during pregnancy, so there is no need to worry about them. Unpredictable mood This sounds like PMS, but the mood changes after pregnancy are even more unpredictable than PMS, with a daily barometer like a child’s face. The hormonal changes in your body often make you smile one minute, and the next minute it’s already cloudy.
