A missed menstrual cycle is most surely associated with an early sign of pregnancy. When a woman misses her menstrual period, she gets an indication that she is pregnant. This can be confirmed at home by readily available Home Pregnancy Test kits in medical shops.

One of these early symptoms is sore and swollen breasts with a tingling sensation. Second one is a light cramping in the lower abdomen which occurs during implantation.

Another common symptom is spotting. It is a short, light period or just a few drops of period like fluid, which, in fact, is implantation bleeding. But, if you are already pregnant, even a few weeks, and you observe spotting, you must immediately inform and take advice from your doctor. It may indicate some problem in the pregnancy, to the extent of a miscarriage.

Heartburn and nausea are also some early signs of pregnancy. Nausea generally happens in morning, thus is termed as morning sickness in pregnant women. It is due to hormonal changes early in this period. Heartburn too is due to hormonal changes. In the months 5 to 9, it is due to the growing baby which puts pressure on the mother's digestive organs. The key to take care of these problems is having frequent small meals and doing light exercise, as advised by your doctor during this period.
