Have you been waiting for your period and wondering about pregnancy?
Some little hints and symptoms can point to pregnancy. However, the only way to know if you’re pregnant with certainty is by taking a pregnancy test. Visit Sumter Pregnancy Center for a no-cost and confidential pregnancy test appointment.
Here are seven signs that could indicate it’s time to take a pregnancy test.
#1. You feel nauseous.
Nausea with or without vomiting is a common pregnancy symptom. It can range from slight to severe and can happen at any time of the day or night.
#2. Certain foods or smells no longer appeal to you.
Maybe the smell of your favorite candle makes you feel sick now. Or, coffee smells terrible, and you never want to see a green vegetable again. Food aversions and sensitivities to smells are pregnancy symptoms.
#3. Your breasts feel tender or sore.
Similar to your monthly period, your breasts could feel swollen, tender, and sore. Your areolas might also darken and enlarge.
#4. You’re exhausted.
Suddenly, you may feel more tired and sleepy than usual. You may want to take naps or rest a little longer than normal.
#5. You can’t stop running to the restroom.
You might have to use the restroom more often than usual to empty your bladder. Your body processes more fluid during pregnancy, leading to frequent bathroom trips.
#6. You feel emotional and even have mood swings.
Maybe you feel happy one second and find yourself weeping the next. You can feel very emotional during pregnancy, and mood swings are common.
#7. You missed your period.
A missed period is the most obvious sign you might be pregnant. Take a pregnancy test the day after your missed period. If it’s negative but you still feel pregnant, take another test a few days later. It takes time for your hormones to rise to detectable levels.
