Are due to hormones: Common early pregnancy symptoms include some nausea (with or without vomiting), some fatigue (feeling less energetic), a sharper or stronger sense of smell, mild soreness and swelling of the breasts, and maybe some food aversions or cravings. These symptoms are due to quickly rising hormone levels.

B6 and Doxylamine: Besides "grazing" on small amounts of food throughout the day, ginger, or using sea bands; the combination of doxylamine (an antihistamine) and vitamin B6 can be helpful at reducing nausea of pregnancy. If this fails there are prescription medications that area safe and helpful.

Ectopic pregnancy: A pregnancy that begins and implants in other than the uterus is called an ectopic pregnancy. When implantation is in the fallopian tube and is called a tubal pregnancy. Symptoms early similar to a normal pregnancy and the test for pregnancy will be positive. Pregnancy cannot proceed normally and vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, cramping pain in pelvic area, fainting may occur. Call doc asap.

Ectopic pregnancies are DANGEROUS and the earlier detected the better the outcome. Always see your doctor as early as possible when you think you are pregnant and report any abnormalities promptly to stay safe.
