Ways to Spot Early Pregnancy Signs Step 1 Keep track of your menstrual cycle. While other factors can impact menstruation, a missed period is one sign of pregnancy. Step 2 If you are queasy, especially in the morning, or if certain smells or tastes make you feel nauseous, these can be indications of morning sickness. Not all women experience this symptom, however. Step 3 Consider any spotting since your last period as a possible early sign of pregnancy. When the embryo implants into the uterus, it may or may not result in spotting in some women. Cramping is also an early pregnancy sign and may be associated with implantation. Step 4 Experiencing a loss of appetite or changes in appetite, such as food cravings, can be a pregnancy symptom. Step 5 Evaluate your energy. Pregnancy can cause a shift in some new mom's energy levels, so be aware of any fatigue. Step 6 Soreness, tenderness and/or swollen breasts may also be an early pregnancy clue. Step 7 Increased urination is another possible sign of pregnancy, so frequent trips to the restroom may be caused by more than an increase in drinking fluids. Step 8 Some women gain weight early in their pregnancy, so if you see a sudden increase on the scale, pregnancy is one possible reason. Keep in mind that no two pregnancies are the same, and that women have varying pregnancy symptoms.
