Weird signs you are pregnant with a girl

Pregnancy symptoms are different for every woman, and they can even be different from one pregnancy to the next. Symptoms start at different times, too: Some women feel early pregnancy symptoms within a week or two of getting pregnant, while other women may go months with no pregnancy symptoms.

The only way to know you're pregnant for sure is to take a pregnancy test.

"Pregnancy symptoms can be very subjective," says Layan Alrahmani, M.D., a board-certified ob-gyn and maternal-fetal medicine specialist, clinical faculty and assistant professor at Loyola UniversityOpens a new window in Chicago, and member of the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board.

"You can have a healthy pregnancy whether you have symptoms or not."

That said, there are some first signs and symptoms of pregnancy that are common very early on.

They're likely caused by a surge in the pregnancy hormone human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG), as well as rises in estrogen and progesterone.
