Many women don't suspect they're pregnant until they've missed a period, but there may be other indications, including:
- Sickness and maybe a mix of feeling nausea
- A weird 'metallic' flat taste in your mouth
- Your Breasts feeling tender with tingling and enlargement
- The small bumps - 'Montgomery's tubercules' - where your nipples become more obvious
- Stomach pains
- Tiredness
- Constipation
- Needing to urinate more often
- Going off certain things, such as coffee and fatty foods
- Increased vaginal discharge
- Some women experience very light bleeding (called 'spotting') that they mistake for their period
When is my baby due?
The length of your pregnancy is dated from the first day of your last period, even though you actually conceive two weeks or so after this date, depending on your cycle. Your baby is likely to be born two weeks after or before the due date as mentioned by the baby doctor.
Check your due date and what's happening within your body week by week. All you need to know is the first day of your last period.
Most women see their private baby doctor to arrange for antenatal care, you can also check into your community hospital if needed.
How I know all these? Cause I have 2 babies and I was heavily involved!
