15 Signs That Reveal Your Pregnancy

Ecstatic, shocked, surprised or confused? How did it feel when you discovered your pregnancy? Learning about your pregnancy might be an experience on its own, but every woman might have her story to share about how she figured out she was pregnant. Some don’t realize that they are growing a tiny human inside them for quite some time, while some women know it even before they miss their periods. The moment you come to know of it shall, however, remain special as you look back through your motherhood. Here’s how some bizarre moments might define exactly when you realize you soon are going to be a mom:

  1. You might begin to cry for no reason for something as silly as your hot dog going wrong, for instance.
  1. If your boobs are growing overnight and you feel the weight of your tees a bit too much, it might not necessarily mean that you are putting on weight. Watch out for a baby-bump soon.
  1. If you are particularly prone to having hunches through dreams, then you might as well dream yourself carrying a bump or your subconscious mind might imagine a funny situation like carrying your bump around.
  1. You might be running miles as part of your exercise regimen, but this time, you crash much sooner than usual and like never before.
  1. Sometimes your husband would have his hunches about your pregnancy than you would! Imagine he comes home with a surprise, and you are so overwhelmed that you cry out like you were never so emotional in your life. And he tells you from your behavior that you sure are pregnant.
  1. Sometimes you take a test just for the heck of it, and good Heavens, you incidentally turn out positive to the pregnancy test!
  1. Your friends might be making wild guesses that you are pregnant. Or they might simply have their hunches about you. You thought there was no way you were, but you take a pregnancy test just to prove them wrong. But the test turns out positive proving you wrong instead!
  1. It could be just one of those nights when you have to pee every half hour!
  1. You are at work, and the smell or talk of any foods (including your fav foods) make you want to throw up! And you do so frequently at work too (no wonder you would be running to the washroom to hug the toilet seat).
  1. You might ask your husband to cook whatever he prepares the best (I know most women love the scrambled eggs their husbands make), but if you get a decent Italian platter made by him, you might still throw up!
  1. You want to eat sour. You hover around the kitchen to lay your hands on anything sour you want to get but feel weird to cook something that tastes citrus (more often than not, you end up munching on tamarind). If you are not the kind of person who likes pickles, you suddenly crave for pickles and some added salt.
  1. For those women who are normally cold, they might suddenly want to swap warm clothes for a tank top and shorts!
  1. You might become a voracious and an unlikely fast-eater.
  1. You get car-sick often these days. Or you just need more leg-space. But there will be something about the car that you would keep grudging about.
  1. Sometimes it’s not humans, but your dog that already knows of an imminent addition to the family. Your dog might act strangely. It would love to caress your tummy by its paw, for instance. Don’t be surprised if it also loves to scrutinize your tummy a bit. It sure knows the smell of someone in there already!
