Do you
think you’re pregnant? Well thinking is
not really enough as you have to be sure.
And the only way to determine your
pregnancy is to pop along to your doctor
or do yourself a home pregnancy test.
Whatever gave you the idea in the first
place you are pregnant is no doubt
because you have seen a change in
yourself in some way or other, or seeing
unusual changes to your body? The
earliest and most reliable sign of
pregnancy, for women who
have  a regular monthly cycle,
is a missed period; however this does not
necessarily mean you are pregnant because
other factors can also cause bleeding to
stop. Stress normally being one of them,
but more times than not it does indicate
pregnancy. Any confusion on the matter
should be checked out with your GP because
the first couple of months into a
pregnancy are the most
critical.
Other signs of
pregnancy may include Feeling sick (nausea):
you may feel sick, or even vomit not
necessarily in the morning, but at any time
throughout the day. Changes in your breasts:
often they become bigger and feel tender to
touch, rather as they may do before a period.
They may tingle at times. The veins may show up
more and the nipples may darken and
protrude.
The need to frequently
urinate: you may find that you have to get up
in the middle of the night to relieve yourself.
Constipation. An increased vaginal discharge
without any soreness or irritation. Feeling
Lethargic. Having a strange taste in your
mouth: metallic. Going off certain things like
tea or coffee, tobacco or fatty food. Later
into pregnancy we then have them unusual
cravings to tend with. Some women don’t even
need these signs. They just naturally know that
they are pregnant.

Pregnancy tests can be carried
out on a sample of urine from the first day of
a missed period, that is, about a fortnight
after conception. You can collect urine at any
time of the day. Use a clean, soap-free,
well-rinsed container to collect it. You should
visit your local clinic for information where
you can also get a pregnancy test done for
free.
The vast majority of chemists
offer this service too (pregnancy testing.) You
can also buy a do-it-yourself pregnancy testing
kit from the chemist which is affectively
precise in pregnancy predictions. A positive
pregnancy result is almost nearly always 100%
correct. A negative result is less reliable.
Give yourself a time to adjust to the idea of
being pregnant. Even though you may feel
anxious and uncertain now, this does not mean
that you won’t come to enjoy your pregnancy or
to welcome the idea of a baby on the way.
Discuss your feelings with your maternity team
who will help you to adjust to your pregnancy.
if you are uncertain or indecisive about things
in relation to you being pregnant, then open up
and speak out. This way you will get the
answers to your worries. But do begin to think
about your antenatal care (that is, the care
you’ll receive leading up to the birth) and
where you would like to have your
baby.
