What are the exact symptoms of pregnancy?

Ok..I am 17 and I am worried that I am pregnant. Is there anyone who knows first hand what exact symptoms are? I am so worried please help

Hi,

Here are the early symptoms of pregnancy:

Food cravings
Headaches
Backaches
Late/Missed Period
Darkened Areolas
Swollen/Tender Breasts
Fatigue

However, many of these symptoms can be attributed to something else, and you shouldn't expect to have accurate pregnancy symptoms until after you miss a period.

Good luck.

To reiterate what prkswll said, there are symptoms of early pregnancy. However, they are very vague. The symptoms of early pregnancy are the same as dozens of other things. So if you have those symptoms, it does not necessarily mean you are pregnant. Also, not all pregnant women have these symptoms.

That means, if you want to know if you are pregnant, you have to take a pregnancy test. You can never rely on symptoms.

Make sure you are using birth control.

simple, you miss your period, you get a pregnancy test, don't leave it any longer than missing one period... no two pregnancies are the same, some don't even know they are pregnant, my mother had periods for 5 months and was 5months pregnant... if you suspect you are pregnant due to unprotected sex or for any reason then get a test... thats the full proof way of knowing.
