What Are the Early Pregnancy Symptoms?

If your period is late and you’re feeling a little funky, you could be pregnant. But a late period can be caused by different health issues. Some other early pregnancy symptoms include tender breasts and fatigue. 
Your best bet is to take a pregnancy test. A New Generation offers free lab-quality pregnancy testing. A nurse will determine your eligibility for a free ultrasound if your test is positive.

Other Early Pregnancy Symptoms

Every woman’s pregnancy, just like every woman, is unique. Some women experience pregnancy symptoms immediately, while others don’t experience any for several weeks.

Here are a few symptoms you might experience:

• A missed period

• Nausea with or without vomiting

• Fatigue

• Frequent urination

• Breast tenderness

• Moodiness

Why Would I Follow Up With an Ultrasound?

A positive pregnancy test indicates the possibility of being pregnant. An ultrasound confirms if the pregnancy is viable (developing with a detectable heartbeat). 

Experts estimate as many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. Because it takes your body time to return to its pre-pregnancy hormone levels, it is possible to get a positive pregnancy test result days or even weeks after a miscarriage.

• An ultrasound also reveals how far along you are in your pregnancy. Many women are surprised to find they’ve been pregnant longer than they suspected. 
  
• Plus, you learn the location of your pregnancy. Although rare, some pregnancies form outside the uterus, which is a dangerous, life-threatening health issue.
