Signs to Become Aware of in Pregnancy
Everyone knows the most common symptoms when one is pregnant and they are like nausea, missed period, urinary frequency, vomiting and many more. But are you sure that these symptoms are only for pregnancy? Cannot they mislead one?
Well, one needs to know when exactly all the usual pregnancy symptoms become abnormal pregnancy symptoms.
Missed Period
When this happens, one can think that they are pregnant but when they take the urine test it keeps coming out with negative results. In fact, there can be a lot of reasons for missed periods apart from pregnancy. One should see the doctor if they have missed pregnancy for more than 2 weeks since they have had last intercourse and still the urine test is negative. Then the doctor can go for a blood serum test which can give a proper and accurate reading of the hormone levels. If that also remains negative then there can be some other reasons for missed periods.
Nausea and Vomiting
This is a very common factor in early pregnancy. In fact, more than 60 percent of women face this during pregnancy but that too in varying degrees. This symptom mainly occurs in the first 2 weeks of pregnancy and reaches its peak in the 9th week. Then it is completely gone by the 18th week. But if one is suffering too much due to this issue and is not being able to keep any kind of food or fluid in their stomach then they definitely need to see a doctor because this is a bit abnormal. It can lead to sudden weight loss and dehydration. There can also be some ultrasounds done to check if the status of the baby is right or not. In the case of molar pregnancy or in the case of twins one can also face some more nausea and vomiting. But if nausea and vomiting begin after 10 weeks of pregnancy along with some pain and fever then one needs to go for a proper check up with the gynecologist. There can also be something happening apart from pregnancy then.
Urinary frequency
When one is pregnant they always feel to urinate frequently. But the increased frequency can also be caused by the change of the structure and function of both the bladder and the kidney. One urinates more at night. But if one feels pain whole urinating then they need to call a doctor immediately. There can be UTI infections as well if one is suffering from back pain, fever, and chills. If UTI is not treated in time then it can lead to kidney infection and it can also affect the baby inside.
Fatigue
One feels very tired sometimes when they are pregnant. This happens especially in the first trimester. But if it keeps happening in the second trimester as well then it can be due to an infection or anemia.
Anything that happens in excess can become signs of abnormal pregnancy and one needs to take the help of a doctor in order to solve that.
