Pregnancy can be a really tough time for some women. It depends from person to person upon various factors including but not limited to body weight, height, pre-existing medical conditions, family history of any illness, etc. Although it is known to be one of the toughest and most challenging times of a woman’s life, a majority of them have only said good things about it. 

Know your body’s signs and symptoms

Symptoms may change from slight to severe just in a matter of weeks, like from 2-weeks pregnancy symptoms to one month itself. The symptoms that women report during this time may be divided into two broad kinds: some general and some-case-specific symptoms. Let us take a look at some of the 2 weeks of pregnancy symptoms:

The common and general symptoms include-

• Missed period- one of the most guaranteed symptoms of pregnancy is a missed period. If you have missed your period for the month, then you may want to get a home pregnancy test kit after a few days. It’s important to wait for a few days after the usual last date for the HCG hormone to reflect in the urine. 
• Swollen and Tender breasts- your body is preparing for carrying a child and so, changes in the breasts are very common. You may feel a slight heaviness in your breasts because it is preparing for lactation. 
• Increased frequency of urination- the slow pressure that is created in the uterus puts pressure on the bladder, causing an increase in the frequency of urination. 
• Nausea or vomiting- early morning sickness is observed in 3 out of 5 pregnant women. 
• Moodiness- hormonal imbalance causes changes in moods.
• Increased fatigue- a constant increase and decrease in various hormones causes fatigue in the muscles. 
• Cervical changes- the mucus in your cervix may start to appear and feel different. 

Some case-specific symptoms that you may see are-

• Very light spotting
• Headaches
• Increased sense of smell
• Changes in natural body odour
• Gentle aches in the lower abdomen
• Irregular basal body temperature
• Increased sexual feelings

When you are 3 weeks pregnant, the signs and symptoms are generally almost the same but more frequent and probably more visible. Although there is no guarantee that all of you may experience it, it is better to keep checking for the different things you feel in your body during these times. The 3-weeks pregnancy symptoms may not occur very distinctly in everyone; some may not even have them at all! The woman’s body is a magical place that makes everyone in awe at different stages in life!

Let know take a detailed look into the commonly seen 3 weeks of pregnancy symptoms in women- 

• Nausea or early morning sickness
• Slight bleeding
• Changes in your breast
• Feeling bloated
• Cramps
• Sore breasts
• High basal body temperature
