Every person and every pregnancy is different. Some women (very few) never miss a period or gain weight or any other signs just a gut feeling. Other women like myself with my first pregnancy 15 years ago are sick through all of it. Then when I was pregnant again just last year at this time (son is now 5 months old) I had no sickness just constant sleepiness for the first 3 months. Maybe the years made a difference or maybe I just enjoyed my last pregnancy more...all I do know is no 2 people are alike so no 2 pregnancies will be the same 100%!

The first trimester she will probably feel premenstrual, as her body is flushed with hormones.  Cranky, emotional, and the like.  She may have morning sickness.  Many women also feel fatigued.  There may be bloating and constipation as the hormones cause the intestines to move slower to maximize nutritional absorption.  Breast tenderness is common. Frequent urination. \nAnd there will be some anxiety and ambivilence, especially if this is the first baby.\nThe second trimester:  most women find the morning sickness is less, or completely gone.  Movement of the fetus can usually be felt by the mother in the 20th week or so.  The energy begins to return.   She gets that "pregnant glow".  She will start to gain weight faster.   Her swollen abdomen becomes apparent to other people.  She may start to feel Braxton-Hicks contractions.  She starts to wear maternity clothes.\nThe third trimester:  It is obvious to everyone that she is pregnant.  She will gain 1/2-1 lb a week.  She may have heartburn and gas.  She will need to eat frequent, small meals.  Her feet may swell.  Fatigue returns.  Some women have a light clear, vaginal discharge.  The active fetus may keep her awake.  She can't wait to give birth.  She starts nesting.

Depends on the person.  With me, my mother never had morning sickness.  With my sister, she had it a week before the doctor would even give a pregnancy test.  Most ladies have it during only the first trimester or so.  The hormones settle down some after that.  But some have it throughout all nine months.  If you have twins or more, it's more likely for morning sickness to last all nine months, too, for some reason.

It's normal to sometimes spot during pregnancy, but check out the site below on the different types of spotting.   Regardless of your symptoms, call your doctor and let them know.  They know your health history and tell you for sure if it's anything you need to worry about.

Typical early sign of being pregnant is missing or delayed period. Depends on women, some will experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception, some may not experience it at all for couple weeks. Other than missing period, typical signs of pregnancy are as follows: Swollen or Enlarged Breasts, Nausea or unusual noticeable morning sickness, backaches, headaches, frequent urination, cravings for food, and fatigue. On some cases, you may not even have those symptoms. Best way would be get pregnancy tests. I would suggest get 2 of them from the store and test it. One for the during morning, other for the night or next day morning. If positive, consult with doctor verify(although most of the time tests are accurate, it's not 100%).

Obviously the first sign is the absence of your period.  For most, but not all, morning sickness, mood swings, and breast tenderness are soon to follow.

Preganancy test is the best way to find out early. If you are concerned about cost. You check the Yellow Pages for your nearest Planned Parenthood. They will test for free or a low fee.\n\nOther early physical signs: Your breast and nipples become larger and more sensitive. If it is your first pregnancy your nipples generally become darker. You may find yourself tiring more easily and needing midday naps. \n\nBut if you feel you are pregnant, you really should get a test to know for sure. It is always best for you and your baby to start prenatal care as soon as possible

They are reasonably accurate but even a positive result needs to be checked by the doctor. See your doctor for a blood test to check everything out. Those symptoms can also be related to stress, espeially if you think you're pregnant!

While you might still have your period when you are pregnant, my thoughts are that maybe your period would shorten up a lot more than that if not stop completely.  Unless, if your period was really, really light then you might really be pregnant.\n\nIf your breasts are tender that could be a huge sign.  Because they will start preparing to grow and the glands will begin making breast milk for when the baby arrives.\n\nTune in to your motherly instincts.  Put your hand on your tummy and just sit and listen, if you feel like there is anything at all there that wasn't there before, then you are probably pregnant.  I knew I was pregnant when I could feel something doing flip flops in my tummy, (well that's how it felt anyway) and I was only a month along.

Pregnancy symptoms include extreme fatigue, breast tenderness, nausea, with or without vomiting, constipation, gas, and/or bloating, abdominal cramps, frequent urination, food cravings or aversion, mood swing, and increased vaginal discharge.  If you feel you may be pregnant, your best bet would be to wait 2 weeks after a missed period, and see your doctor for a blood pregnancy test as these are more accurate.

Implantation Bleeding:\nImplantation bleeding can be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. About 6-12 days after conception, the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. Some women will experience spotting as well as some cramping. \n\nOther Explanations: Actual menstruation, altered menstruation, changes in birth control pill, infection, or abrasion from intercourse.\n\nDelay/Difference in Menstruation:\nA delayed or missed menstruation is the most common pregnancy symptom leading a woman to test for pregnancy. When you become pregnant, your next period should be missed. Many women can bleed while they are pregnant, but typically the bleeding will be shorter or lighter than a normal period. This symptom is commonly explained by other reasons. If you have been sexually active and have missed a period, it is recommended that you take a test: Order my pregnancy test\n\nOther Explanations: Excessive weight gain/loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, ceasing to take the birth control pill, or breast-feeding.\n\nSwollen/Tender Breasts:\nSwollen or tender breasts is a pregnancy symptom which may begin as early as 1-2 weeks after conception. Women may notice changes in their breasts; they may be tender to the touch, sore, or swollen. \n\nOther Explanations: Hormonal imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation (PMS) can also cause your breasts to be swollen or tender.\n\nFatigue/Tiredness:\nFeeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception. \n\nOther Explanations: Stress, exhaustion, depression, common cold or flu, or other illnesses can also leave you feeling tired or fatigued.\n\nNausea/Morning Sickness:\nThis well-known pregnancy symptom will often show up between 2-8 weeks after conception. Some women are fortunate to not deal with morning sickness at all, while others will feel nauseous throughout most of their pregnancy. \n\nOther Explanations: Food poisoning, stress, or other stomach disorders can also cause you to feel queasy.\n\nBackaches:\nLower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy. \n\nOther Explanations: Impending menstruation, stress, other back problems, and physical or mental strains.\n\nHeadaches:\nThe sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy. \n\nOther Explanations: Dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, impending menstruation, eye strain, or other ailments can be the source of frequent or chronic headaches.\n\nFrequent Urination:\nAround 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom. \n\nOther Explanations: Urinary tract infection, diabetes, increasing liquid intake, or taking excessive diuretics.\n\nDarkening of Areolas:\nIf you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker. \n\nOther Explanations: Hormonal imbalance unrelated to pregnancy or may be a leftover effect from a previous pregnancy.\n\nFood Cravings:\nWhile you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women will feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy. \n\nOther Explanations: Poor diet, lack of a certain nutrient, stress, depression, or impending menstruation.

Not all home test kits are accurate.  I took one after knew I was pregnant (done at a doctors office) and it said negative. The only true way to know for sure is through a blood serum test.  You show the classic symptoms of pregnancy, and I am pretty sure thats what you will find out tomorrow.

Sounds like someone is pregnant! If you missed your last period or skipped on the pill, slipped up and had sex and thought nothing happened then yeah you might be experiencing morning sickness. If this pretty much answers your question go see your gyno a.s.a.p.

What is normal for one person's pregnancy, isn't always normal for another.  Yes, you can still have morning sickness at 12 weeks.  Actually, you can have it throughout your entire pregnancy, unfortunately, although it isn't common.\nI'm sure it will end soon for you.\nGood luck with your prgnancy, and new baby.

This is very normal in early pregnancy.  To help, eat smaller meals and if you do feel nauseated, eat some dry crackers.  Don't drink any water if you feel sick to your stomach, as this makes it worse.  If you are vomiting any more than 3 times/day, make an appointment with the obstetrician.
