Early Pregnancy Signs and Symptoms Answer A2394 Posted: 02-23-07 13:22pm
If her period is late, she could be
pregnant but it has to be confirmed with a
pregnancy test. Lack of a menstrual period
is the first, albeit insecure, sign of
early pregnancy. The other symptoms such
as nausea and vomiting in the morning,
cramps and fatigue are even less reliabel
signs of pregnancy. Your partner can take
a home pregnancy test now. If the test is
positive, she can go to a gynecologist for
an ultrasound check of the fetus.
