Signs And Symptoms of Pregnancy

Frequent Urination

Many women urinate more frequently during pregnancy. [6] Pregnancy causes the kidneys to process more fluids than it usually does. This makes the kidneys fill your bladder with urine more often, increasing the urge to urinate.

Bloating

Pregnancy may also cause you to feel bloated. [7] This is similar to how you feel at the beginning of a period and is possibly due to hormonal changes that affect the digestive system.

Conclusion

You may or not experience any of the symptoms listed here during your pregnancy. Experiencing them is also not always a confirmation of pregnancy. Some underlying health problems can mimic the signs of pregnancy. Do a pregnancy test if you suspect you are pregnant.
