I am about 6wks prego and I had morning sickness for about 4-5days and now I just feel queezy. I am likeing foods I didn’t before and not likeing my usually favorites. I am peeing like crazy and I am hungrey all of the time, plus my pre-prego jeans I can’t even zip up. I can’t see the doctor until Wed morning. This is my fourth pregnancy. My morning sickness has gotten better with every pregnany so far. No it’s not a sign at all your baby should be fine. Morning sickness is very common early in a pregnancy. It tends to go away later in pregnancy, and it’s almost always gone by the second trimester (the fourth month). But there isn’t a set time for it to stop because each woman is different, and each pregnancy is different.

- It is difficult to tell if you are really pregnant or if you are getting sick. Sometimes when you are going to start your period, you may have some of the same signs that you have in early pregnancy. You may want to make an appointment with your doctor or health care professional to confirm if you are or are not. The early pregnancy tests are a good indicator, but they can also be wrong.
- You may be very tired. The higher level of progesterone in your system makes you sleepy. Changes in your blood sugar and blood pressure may be taking a toll on your body sapping your energy away.
- You might feel nauseated. You may have morning sickness, which may or may not be in the morning. You may feel nauseated enough to vomit, or it may just be unsettling to your stomach. The queasy feeling can happen as early as two weeks after conception.
- If your breasts are tender and swollen, that is a good sign that you may be pregnant. Just two weeks after conception the hormone changes can make your breasts tingly and sore. You may notice that you are filling your bra out a little more than usual.
- You may not have missed your period yet, but when you do, that is usually when most women notice that they may be pregnant. You may notice some spotting or a very light vaginal bleeding. This sometimes happens when the fertilized egg implants in the uterus. This is about 10 to 14 days after the egg is fertilized. You may experience some cramping along with this. The cramping should not be any worse than menstrual cramps. If they are worse than your normal cramps, last more than a day or two, or become increasingly worse, seek medical attention. You may have an ectopic pregnancy and will need immediate care. This is when the fertilized egg implants in tissue other than the uterine wall. This is a dangerous situation and can cause damage.
- You might have increased headaches. Changes in your hormones and blood circulation may cause headaches. Be careful of taking any medication if you think you may be pregnant. Talk to your doctor or medical professional to see what is safe and how much you can take.
- You also might be feeling faint or dizzy. Again, changes in your blood pressure, hormones and blood sugar may cause you to feel faint or dizzy in early pregnancy. Be sure to sit down until the feeling passes. Drink enough water. Even though you are very early in your pregnancy, your body is already trying to make more blood to accommodate the pregnancy. Water is very important in this process.
- You may have an aversion to foods or smells you liked before. Some women find the smell of eggs, coffee or fried foods make them nauseous. You may also be more sensitive or dislike other non food smells. When I became pregnant, I couldn’t stand the smell of the after shave my husband used. I had loved it before and was OK with it again after the first 3 months.
- You may find yourself more moody than usual. You may notice that you are crying over the smallest things or a commercial on TV. You may find yourself happy one minute and upset the next. Your hormones are having a party and you are the guest of honor. This should subside after your first trimester.
- If you have been taking your temperature every day to track your ovulation, you will notice that your basal temperature (the temperature when you first wake up in the morning) is staying slightly elevated. This is a good sign that you may be pregnant. It is also a sign that you may be getting sick and have a slight fever. If it persists for a few days and doesn’t turn into a cold or flu, then you may want to take the test and confirm.

My wife for the last 2 days has woken up nauseated. We have a 2 year old, and this is par for the course based on her last time being pregnant. However, we have not taken a test, and her last cycle ended just about 3 weeks ago? Could this be morning sickness? Yeah, it certainly could be! I started feeling sick at night (I’m 13 weeks and still I get “morning sickness” at night), about 1-1.5 weeks before my period was supposed to start. I’d recommend waiting about a week and then having her take a test, but it certainly sounds like she might be pregnant! Especially if the nausea is not accompanied by any other symptoms of a stomach bug and if it goes away later in the day.
