Take An Online Pregnancy Test For Free
To take an online pregnancy test, you'll need to answer some
questions. These questions are related to signs that indicate
pregnancy. To take an online pregnancy test, answer the
questions below. Please note - it will take about a week for the
fertilized egg to implant in the uterus after conception. Once
implantation happens, you can begin to experience one or more of
the signs that indicate you are pregnant. Are you experiencing
any of these signs:
1. Light Spotting? Spotting can happen when implantation occurs
before your next period begins. Light bleeding from implantation
tends to be pinkish or brownish.
2. Urinating More Often? Frequent urination is one of the early
signs of pregnancy. Many women experience more frequent
urination about 7-12 days after the temperature rise at
ovulation.
3. Elevated Body Temperature? A slight increase in body
temperature at ovulation is normal. Your basal body temperature
staying elevated after ovulation is completed and remaining
elevated for the next two weeks can be one of the early signs of
pregnancy.
4. Missing a Menstrual Period? A missed period is one of the
obvious pregnancy signs when you take an online pregnancy test.
However, you can miss periods for other reasons such as illness,
stress and reactions to foods or medications. 5. Tiredness? A
lack of energy as a pregnancy sign may be hard to distinguish
from other kinds of exhaustion. Feeling tired is related to the
change in hormones in the body, which usually disappears as the
body adjusts to new hormone levels during pregnancy.
6. Feelings of Nausea? Feeling nauseated can happen any time,
day or night, although 'morning sickness' is the name given to
feeling nauseated
when pregnant. Only about half of pregnant
women will experience nausea.
7. Tender Nipples and Breasts? When you take an online pregnancy
test, answering yes to this question can indicate pregnancy.
These feelings of tenderness go away as the body becomes
accustomed to new hormone levels. 8. Darker Areolas? If the area
around the nipples becomes darker, this can be a pregnancy
indicator. It can happen as early as one week after conception.
The bumps on the areolas may also look more prominent.
If you are answering 'Yes' to one or more of the questions above
as you take an online pregnancy test, you should confirm
pregnancy by using one of the better home pregnancy tests. There
are major differences in the reliability of the home tests for
pregnancy. A blood pregnancy test can be accurate as early as 8
to 10 days after conception, and a urine pregnancy test can be
accurate as early as 10 to 14 days following conception. If you
feel you are pregnant but your pregnancy test result is
negative, do the test again in a week or so and see your
physician.
Becoming pregnant and enjoying a successful pregnancy is a
complex but wonderful experience. Learn as much as you can about
fertility, pregnancy and your health so your new baby will have
the very best beginning to life that is possible. Copyright 2005
