Not every pregnant woman experiences pregnancy symptoms as early as 2 weeks. However, some symptoms occur in enough women that they are used to confirm whether conception has happened. Knowing what these pregnancy signs are is important so that prenatal care can start early.

    Positive Pregnancy Test

  1. A positive pregnancy test can be the only sign a pregnant woman has at 2 weeks.
  2. Implantation Bleeding

  3. Implantation bleeding, bleeding caused by the egg burrowing into the uterus, is a pregnancy sign that is confusing to women because implantation occurs around the same time as a period and can feel like menstrual cramps.
  4. Missed Period

  5. A missed period occurs when conception has occurred and is usually what prompts a pregnancy test.
  6. Increased Fatigue

  7. Increased fatigue is a pregnancy symptom that signals that the body is busy adapting to the conception.
  8. Breast Tenderness

  9. Breast tenderness is caused by the hormonal changes that the pregnancy triggers.
