Some “experienced” women come to know right away that they have become pregnant. Some may not even know till a couple of months have passed, especially if they have not been expecting to get pregnant and if they have become accidentally!
There are several tests and symptoms to find out if you are pregnant.
Am I Pregnant?
Missed Period: If you have been expecting the pregnancy, a missed period or only a slight staining around the time you get a regular period, may be a sign of prenancy. It might the time to conduct a home pregnancy test. However, some women may have enough bleeding that they may not even think they missed a period.
Home Pregnancy Test: This is the easiest way to find out if you are pregnant. In order to get the best results, please follow the instructions on the kit very carefully. This test is normally done after about two weeks of conception or after the date of your next scheduled period. The home pregnancy test kits detect the presence of HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in the urine and change colors accordingly. HCG is present both in the blood and urine once pregnancy has established.
Visit the Doctor: The doctor may perform a blood test and ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy.
The above are the tests that can confirm within the first 2-3 weeks. Obviously, more tell tale signs of pregnancy start occuring as time passes by!
