Gastro-intestinal symptoms such as
constipation, diarrhea and abdominal
cramps are not signs of pregnancy.
Constipation can occur during late
pregnancy but not during the early
pregnancy. Diarrhea and cramps could be
signs of an intestinal infection.
Vaginal discharge might be present during
pregnancy but first a vaginal infection
must be excluded.
Missing the menstrual period is the first
serious sign of pregnancy, although not
always secure. A home pregnancy test is
the best, most efficient way you can check
if you are pregnant, or not. Then, you can
confirm the test again at a gynecologist's
office using a more accurate blood based
test, and ultrasound confirmation of the
fetus.
