Pregnancy is a very important period in the life of any woman. This is a great event. And the earlier the expectant mother learns that she originated another life, the better for her and her baby. 
At an early time it is difficult to determine pregnancy on your own. Often, even the gynecologist does not say with confidence that you are expecting a baby, before holding the required tests. 
For the first time a woman starts to think about a possible pregnancy, with regular menstrual delay, however, there are other signs which might confirm or disprove your guess.
Let’s consider the most evident early signs of potential pregnancy:
 
-> Delayed menstruation
As it was mentioned above, the absence of menstruation is one of the first major signs of pregnancy. Menstruation will not be throughout the pregnancy, but don’t rely only on this by mistake. It may occur for other reasons. For example, menstruation is absent in certain diseases: vitamin deficiency, hormonal balance irregularities, and diseases of nervous soil infections.

-> Increased appetite, change in the taste of food
Suddenly you notice that you have started eating more than usual- products do not stay long in refrigerator. This is another sign of pregnancy – in fact now you need to feed two people. This may change tastes – something that previously you were eating with a great desire now may lead to disgust, and on the contrary, many dishes you did not like before, noticeably become tastier. The body of a pregnant woman defines itself, what is not enough to form a baby and that she should eat to obtain the desired vitamins. 

-> Nausea during pregnancy
Nausea, and sometimes vomiting (in the mornings, as a rule, it is particularly strong) also indicates the occurrence of pregnancy. In order to protect the embryo, women begin to restructure, become more sensitive to the impurities and toxins in food, which we usually do not notice. As a rule, sickness manifests itself in the first months of the date of conception, when the emerging child is too vulnerable, and cannot cope with any toxins entering him/her from mother. 

-> Changing Mood
A pregnant woman’s nervous system often changes. For example, there is a sudden irritability, frequent mood changes, like crying for no reason, there is depression, drowsiness. These are rather frequent symptoms of pregnancy. A woman may have a feeling of fear, inexplicable anxiety; she may suddenly get upset because of some trifles, or shout without any reason. In such moments, the woman is extremely difficult to control herself, but this is normal while pregnancy. 

-> Frequent toilet visits 
Throughout the duration of a pregnancy women often have urge to urination. The lower part of abdomen fills with blood, which supplies the growing uterus and other organs. They have enough pressure on the bladder. Besides the metabolism is accelerated, the amount of fluid in the body is increased, the kidneys work more active.

-> Breast and mammary glands growth
Almost immediately from the moment of conception changes in the mammary glands are starting. Breasts become bigger; sometimes there is a local voltage and low pain. These are the changes of mammary glands, and preparing for milk producing.

If you notice these signs, visit a gynecologist. The doctor will check and send you to make an ultrasound, ask to pass the necessary tests and then either confirm your guess or no, possibly, send to other doctors. If the pregnancy is confirmed, the physician will determine the approximate time and help to make a calendar.

Before visiting a doctor, you can also get tested for pregnancy. These tests are sold in pharmacies. They are fairly easy to use and quite reliable, but for reliability we recommend to pass the test several times.
