Earliest Possible Signs of Pregnancy

My website visitors often ask me to what are the earliest possible signs of pregnancy?

Are you trying to get pregnant and examining every twinge and flutter and gas bubble? I did the same thing! The signs of early pregnancy can be misleading because they often are very similar to PMS. They typically occur after you've missed your period, so you may not notice these symptoms until about two or more weeks after conception.

For me personally this was a telltale sign of early pregnancy. Almost immediately after conception my breasts were killing me!

I managed to negotiate Fridays off work during my first pregnancy because I was sooo tired!

Sometimes you can experience a little implantation bleeding, which seems like spotting.

When I was pregnant with Trey, I thought I had the flu!

This is one of the most interesting earliest possible signs of pregnancy. When I was pregnant with Hana, I woke up one morning, walked out onto the patio and said, "Something's on fire!" and sure enough, there was a building on fire twenty blocks away! Seriously, my husband couldn't detect it at all. You have super powers of smell when you're pregnant.

These go along with an enhanced sense of smell. You taste things more strongly and therefore can also suddenly not tolerate certain foods that you used to enjoy.

In other words, you need to pee a lot.

Self explantory, isn't it? Although sometimes you still have some bleeding so you might think you are not pregnant.

If you were successful at getting pregnant, your temperature stays elevated. For more information on this, click on this link.
