The majority of the symptoms that women experience throughout pregnancy are natural, even if they are unpleasant.
Although true issues are uncommon, it's still smart to be prepared. Read on to learn about common pregnancy symptoms you shouldn't ignore and should report to your doctor.
Persistent or severe vomiting
Vomiting, along with nausea, is a common symptom in the first trimester. It's more generally referred to as "morning sickness," but it doesn't always show up in the morning!
If your morning sickness is severe (and it's accompanied by other symptoms like dizziness or bloody vomit), you may have hyperemesis gravidarum, a rare disease that necessitates medical treatment.
If you suffer vomiting after the first trimester, see your doctor to rule out anything serious and get treatment for nausea.
Dizziness or faintness
Early in your second trimester, feeling lightheaded is a common symptom. You may become dizzy later in pregnancy as a result of circulation issues or low blood sugar levels.
Consult your doctor if your dizziness persists; if you feel faint or actually faint; or if your dizziness is accompanied by other symptoms such as blurred vision, vaginal bleeding, headaches, or abdominal discomfort so that a cause can be discovered and addressed.
Vaginal spotting
Spotting, also known as implantation bleeding, is common early in pregnancy.
However, spotting or bleeding may occur as a result of a more dangerous condition, such as ectopic pregnancy, a molar pregnancy, or cervical infection.
If the spotting is severe and is followed by additional symptoms like the stomach or pelvic pain, excessive lightheadedness, or shoulder pain, see your doctor.
Urge to pee or burning sensation while you urinate
It could be an indication of a urinary tract infection(UTI) if you have an increased urge to pee but only a few drops come out, or if you get a burning sensation while urinating.
Fever, chills, and blood-tinged urine are further signs of a UTI. To avoid problems, your doctor will be able to diagnose your symptoms and treat the bacterial infection.
Remember that frequent urination is a common pregnancy symptom in the first trimester and later in pregnancy as your baby grows and presses on your bladder.
