[Questions?]

I have a FEW questions about being pregnant. Some people say that they just "know" when they're pregnant? How can you just "know"? And another thing, I have most of the signs of being prego. But at the same time, the more that I read the signs the more that I think that they all also lead up to PMS. But the only thing about it is that I haven't had a period in the past 2 or 3 months... Which wouldn't be a problem normally because my period is messed up and never on a regular schedule anyway. But I've never been 3 months late before, or even 3 for that matter... And I hear that when your pregnant that you also have a lot of headaches. Well I don't have headaches THAT often, but I have been having a few... ALSO, It says that your a lot more thirsty and a lot more bathroom breaks in the first trimester, is this true? And my last question is, I have been FEELING sick in the mornings, but I haven't actually GOTTEN sick yet... Would you consider that morning sickness also?

Thanx for your help.

Some people say that they just "know" when they're pregnant? How can you just "know"?

Well, something just feels different. Your boobs might be tender, you might feel nauseated, and stuff like that.

And I hear that when your pregnant that you also have a lot of headaches

This is common, but not true for every woman. This can be due to the extra blood and fluids in your body during pregnancy, or the hormones.

ALSO, It says that your a lot more thirsty and a lot more bathroom breaks in the first trimester, is this true?

Yes and yes. you are more thirsty because of hormones and the fact that your body is producing baby. you pee a lot because your bladder is being pressed on by your uterus and because you are probably drinking more.

And my last question is, I have been FEELING sick in the mornings, but I haven't actually GOTTEN sick yet... Would you consider that morning sickness also?

Not every women gets morning sickness, yet some women get sick several times a day.

Bottom line: If you are unsure, take a test, or go to the doctor to rule out any other reasons you haven't had a period.

Hope that helps.
