My girlfriend and her husband are trying to become pregnant. She recently had an appointment with her gynecologist who gave her a list of symptoms she should be on the lookout for that will signal that she is pregnant. They are a missed period, tender and swollen breasts, a feeling of fatigue, increased urination, backache and nausea. The doctor explained to her that some of these symptoms could show up as early as two weeks into her pregnancy and some might not show up for six to eight weeks and that some may not show up at all. Every woman is different. She advised my friend if she had any one of these early pregnancy symptoms she should have a pregnancy test.
