5 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms

At 5 weeks, pregnancy is still in its early stages, but some significant changes are happening inside your body. These changes often result in a variety of symptoms. While every woman’s experience is different, here are some common symptoms that you may experience:

Missed Period

One of the first signs of pregnancy is a missed period. At 5 weeks, it’s likely that your period is late by a week or two.

Early Morning Sickness

Some women start experiencing morning sickness at this stage. It’s not just limited to mornings – it can happen at any time during the day or night.

Enhanced Sense of Smell

Many pregnant women report a heightened sense of smell. Certain smells, even ones you used to enjoy, might now result in nausea or a strong dislike.

Breast Tenderness

Your breasts may become tender and swollen due to hormonal changes. This discomfort is similar to what you might feel before your period, but it’s usually more intense.

Frequent Urination

The increase in blood flow to your kidneys will make you urinate more often. This symptom will continue throughout your pregnancy.

These are just a few symptoms you might experience at 5 weeks. Remember, every woman and every pregnancy is different. You might experience all, some, or none of these symptoms.
