It’s not unheard of during pregnancy to have certain symptoms one day and different ones the next. Remember that the presence or absence of symptoms isn’t an indication of how healthy your growing baby is. Occasionally, if you have symptoms that appear to be intensified, you may be carrying multiples, although some women only experience mild symptoms, even when carrying more than one baby. If you have any symptoms of pregnancy and you have reason to believe you could be pregnant, it’s a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor.
Sometimes Early Signs of Pregnancy (including a delayed period) can happen for a variety of reasons other than pregnancy including stress, illness, contraceptives, hormonal imbalances, diet or even a recent vacation. Many typical symptoms are also typical of PMS, which can make things even more confusing. This is why a suspected pregnancy needs to be confirmed by a home pregnancy test and then by your doctor. Or better yet, have a blood pregnancy test performed at your doctor’s office.
