　　2. Nausea and vomiting

　　Starting from about the 5th week of pregnancy, many pregnant women will develop morning sickness . Nausea occurs especially in the morning and evening, and vomiting occurs without any reason. The cause of morning sickness is not clear at present, but data shows that it may be related to chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in the human body. When you are first pregnant, the levels of chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in your body begin to increase. The higher the level of this hormone, the easier it is to feel nauseated.

Implantation bleeding of a fertilized egg appears as a small amount of blood streaks or blood spots, which can be seen several times a day. The bleeding lasts for about three days, and there is no discomfort during menstruation. Implantation bleeding of a fertilized egg needs to be distinguished from menstruation to prevent pregnant women from not knowing that they are pregnant.

Not only does the expanding uterus put pressure on the bladder, but the increase in blood flow also puts pressure on the kidneys, resulting in increased urine.
