3.Morning Sickness

This pregnancy symptom is well known, and it is related to the nausea symptom. It can be caused by a variety of factors. Your body is craving food and you have not eaten all night so your tummy feels queasy.

4. Extreme fatigue:

One of the earliest pregnancy signs for some women may be fatigue and exhaustion. You may start going to bed sooner, or find it harder than usual to get out of bed in the morning. If you are working, by noon you may feel like you need to lie down. Exercising seems like too much effort. A simple activity like shopping may leave you feeling wiped out and lightheaded.

5. Nausea and vomiting

One of these pregnancy signs of queasiness, nausea and vomiting can take you by surprise when you least expect it.

6. Frequent urination:

An early symptom of pregnancy that others may notice you experiencing is frequent trips to the restroom. Your family or friends may comment that you seem to be going off to the ladies room quite often lately. One cause of this pregnancy symptom is that the swelling uterus can put pressure on your bladder.

7. Constipation:

This pregnancy symptom is caused by the swelling of the uterus and pushing against the stomach and other organs as it grows. Also, increasing levels of hormones may slow down digestion and bowel functions to allow the body to absorb as much vitamins, minerals and nutrients as possible from foods.

8. Raised basal body temperature:

One of the pregnancy symptoms is that you feel a liitle higher body temperature than usual . You may  feel a little bit warm lately coming down with a cold or something. Take your temperature and see if it is higher than it normally would be.
