I know, weird topic Embarassed - but I read that constipation is a early sign of pregnancy ... I konw also now to believe everything I read, so I'm coming here. ALong with the nausea, I have definitly had problems in this area. Is this a normal "early" sign too?

I cant test until I miss my period (If I do) next week ... just curious.

Thanks

It can be a symptom ALONG WITH OTHER SYMPTOMS. Like a missed period?

You can be constipated without being pregnant. You can be pregnant and never be constipated. Sorry hun, the only way you will know for sure is if you take a test. There is no pregnancy sign like that, that is a for sure indicator of pregnancy....almost everything that can happen with a pregnancy can also be due to something else....even a missed period. Thank goodness for HPTs lol.

yeah i understand that but wasnt the question asking if it was a sign of early pregnancy...? i think so. and if you told a doctor your signs of pregnancy and you mentioned that he would tell you it was.
