Can nausea be a sign of pregnancy?

Question

My period is a week late and since 2 days I keep feeling slightly nauseous specially in morning. Haven't tested yet, thoda scared bhi hu. Can this nausea actually mean im pregnant or am I overthinking?

Rekha Jog · Answer

Yes, nausea is often how we find out! Just get a simple test card from the local chemist and check tomorrow morning to be sure.

Tulsi Sehgal · Answer

Yes, it is a very classic sign. However, don't just guess based on symptoms; buy a home test kit and check with your first morning urine tomorrow.

Yes, absolutely! That was my very first symptom even before I missed my period. Did anyone else here feel nauseous so early on?

My mother actually guessed my pregnancy just by seeing me feel sick in the kitchen! Nausea is a very common early sign for many of us.

It can indeed be an early sign of pregnancy. Please wait for your missed period date and take a gentle home test. Take good care of your health.
