Take a Deep Breath
An unplanned pregnancy may feel overwhelming, and you likely have many questions. This is a normal reaction; know you aren’t the first woman to experience this journey. Your emotions are valid, and you are more capable than you know.
We know how frightening this can be and promise you aren’t alone.
Confirming Your Pregnancy
First, you’ll want to confirm your pregnancy. You may have already taken an at-home pregnancy test, but it’s essential to take advantage of medical-grade pregnancy testing to be sure you are pregnant. You may receive a false negative if you take an at-home test too early or incorrectly.
Sometimes, certain pregnancy symptoms can actually be attributed to other health conditions. If you are pregnant, you may experience:
- Missed period
- Frequent urination
- Nausea with or without vomiting
- Fatigue
- Tender, swollen breasts
- Moodiness
- Bloating
- Cramping
- Constipation
- Nasal congestion
- Food aversions
Symptoms like a missed period can occur due to stress, weight changes, etc. And some women don’t experience any symptoms during early pregnancy, making it even more crucial to take a test. Get the facts before assuming you’re pregnant, and ensure you discuss your next steps.
