No matter the circumstances, it is essential for you to get checked whenever your period suddenly stops.
Spotting
One of the early signs of pregnancy discharge that women might notice is light spotting or bleeding. This kind of spotting is known as implantation bleeding, which normally occurs about 10 to 14 days after conceiving. Implantation bleeding happens when the fertilized egg attaches itself to the lining of the uterus.
Tender Breasts
Tender, swollen breasts occur as early as one to two weeks after conception. It happens due to hormonal changes like the increase of estrogen hormones. When you are pregnant, you might feel that tingly, full sensation in your breasts that may make it painful to touch. But eventually, this will subside after the first trimester.
Darkening of the Areolas
Not all women can notice changes in their bodies during pregnancy, like the darkening of their areolas. Aside from making your breasts tender, hormonal changes can also make your skin cells produce more pigment, making your areolas look darker.
These hormonal changes also make your areolas appear larger and bumpier. The bumps that will show up on your areolas are oil-producing glands called Montgomery’s tubercles, which are responsible for lubricating your nipples during pregnancy and lactation.
Nausea or Morning Sickness
Morning sickness or nausea is one of the most common early signs of pregnancy, aside from a missed period. The cause of this is still not clear, however, researchers suggest that it might be due to the presence of elevated hCG in the woman’s body.
Women would most likely experience this symptom after a month of conception. You may experience morning sickness with or without vomiting that can happen in the daytime or nighttime. Even if morning sickness is a common sign of pregnancy, not all women may experience it.
