Most Common Pregnancy Questions and Doubts For Pregnant Women

There are many doubts and questions in the minds of pregnant ladies, especially the first timers. For all of those who are going through this period, this article will help you with the answers to most of your pregnancy related queries and doubts.

The first and the most common question asked by pregnant ladies is if it is normal to have a period (menses) while they are pregnant? The answer to this doubt is that the regular menses does not occur during pregnancy but bleeding during early pregnancy may signify that there is a failed miscarriage. If you experience any kind of bleeding, you should contact your Gynec immediately.

The reliability of home pregnancy tests as compared to blood pregnancy tests has always been a cause of concern for all pregnant ladies. But the matter of the fact is that both the tests are done to check one hormone which is called human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Home pregnancy tests are around 97% accurate when done correctly. Thus it is very important to follow the instructions which appear on the kit, to complete the test correctly and to get an accurate result.

The next question that is often asked by pregnant ladies is if it is normal to secrete milk from the breast prior to delivery. The answer to this question is that Colostrum or the pre milk is secreted in the later phase of the pregnancy. However, it can happen in an earlier stage too. But one must understand that not all women experience this, and it is normal both ways. If you are leaking, you might use nursing pads to protect your clothing. Nursing pads are available in all reputable pharmacies or drug stores.

Two questions that arise in the minds of most pregnant women is if pregnancy symptoms start a week after intercourse (unprotected) and if the urine changes color if one is pregnant?

Answer to the first question is that symptoms are not generally noticeable until around the 5th week of conception, although some women do say they feel symptoms within two weeks. The most reliable symptom is a missed period, so practically it is not possible to feel symptoms just one week after sex. It takes about two weeks for the female body to produce hormones that make you feel those symptoms.

And the answer to the next question is that the change in urine color means that either you are not drinking enough water or that your urinary tract is infected. If you are pregnant, you need more water than usual and this is one reason why urinary tract infections are also very common among pregnant women. If your urine has changed to a very dark yellow, you need to speak to your doctor as soon as possible. However if your urine a bright yellow color, it is actually due to the B-complex in the vitamins.

It is best to clear all doubts as soon as they arise, as some times misconceptions can lead to complications, which in turn can lead to miscarriage.
