Every woman has a different appearance when she’s pregnant, but there are definite changes. Not the biggest sign, a swollen belly, is very easy to spot, but there are other more subtle or even unexpected physical indications. Keep reading to find out what other telltale signs you can look out for in order to know if the woman you know is pregnant.

1]She will have to make adjustments at her job;
Even though many women return to work after giving birth, it may be difficult for her to keep up with her responsibilities. She may need to work from home on occasion or take time off from her job because of morning sickness and other pregnancy symptoms. Workplace flexibility policies can help women plan around their physical needs, whether they choose to return to work full-time or stay at home. The company will want to make sure that its employees are happy and productive. If she isn’t feeling well, she won’t be able to do her best work. It’s important that she feel comfortable taking time off when necessary.

  1. Her hormones make her more affectionate
    Just like we tell men that women are often more affectionate when they’re ovulating, so are women. Hormones can play havoc with your emotions, and one of those side effects is making you need to be close to someone even if you don’t want to be. When you see her spending more time cuddling than usual or being really touchy-feely, it might not just be her hormones — it could also mean she’s expecting! In general, some pregnancy symptoms include: nausea, fatigue, sore breasts, frequent urination and vaginal discharge. If these symptoms persist for more than two weeks after conception (or before), it’s possible something else may be going on besides pregnancy. The good news is that in most cases, there’s no harm in asking your doctor about these symptoms — many times they’re related to other issues entirely.

  2. She wants you to know she’s pregnant
    Women often have to deal with some pretty annoying social pressures when they’re expecting. Some say there’s an unwritten rule that you must get your friends, family and co-workers up to speed on your growing belly before you start showing. This means more than just sharing your news in passing; some women feel obligated to get everyone up to speed by letting them know how pregnant they are at every turn. If you find yourself wondering why your friend keeps asking if she looks fat or why she seems to be telling anyone who will listen about her little problem, then it might be time for a little chat. And don’t worry — you won’t hurt her feelings; most women are relieved to finally share their secret!

  3. She starts planning early

  4. Other women point it out first
    The obvious signs are often what you notice first. Your pregnant friend or coworker will probably be getting sick and tired more frequently than she normally does. She may also feel moody, gain weight, have swollen breasts and notice changes in her body that she didn’t know were possible. These are just some of many common physical signs of pregnancy, but there are also emotional signs to watch out for! It can sometimes be difficult to detect these early signs, so try asking your friends if they think their co-worker might be expecting. They may say something that helps you make sense of things!

  5. The smell of chocolate makes her crave sweets

  6. She will want all kinds of foods, not just sweet things
    Most women experience food cravings during pregnancy. It’s not uncommon for them to want strange combinations of foods and to crave things that they normally wouldn’t, like pizza or potato chips. This does not mean that you should go out and buy up all of these foods for her — if she really wants it, she can make it herself. The point here is just to let her know that there are options available if she gets a craving. If you do decide to buy some of these foods, be sure to keep them in a place where your partner will see them but your children won’t have access to them. She may also be more interested in eating larger portions than usual; try offering small snacks throughout the day rather than large meals at night so that she doesn’t feel too full after dinner time comes around.

  7. When she isn’t feeling well, she becomes very picky about what she eats
    A common sign that a woman is pregnant is food cravings and changes in appetite. A pregnant woman may start experiencing morning sickness which can lead to her feeling nauseous throughout her day, even when she hasn’t eaten. This can cause her to develop certain food preferences such as for example becoming very selective about what she eats or doesn’t eat. She will be more likely to become sick from smells, food additives or other triggers that might not have bothered her before. The first trimester of pregnancy is considered to be one of the most vulnerable times for a baby and it can take up to 12 weeks for many women to feel better again. Morning sickness usually lasts until week 12 of pregnancy but some women continue to experience nausea until they deliver their baby. When you notice your friend isn’t eating much at all or has an aversion towards specific foods, it could be because she is trying to avoid anything that makes her feel ill while carrying a child. If you are concerned that your friend is pregnant, talk to her about how she feels. If she admits to being nauseous or having been vomiting, then there is a good chance that she is expecting. If you think someone close to you might be pregnant, here are 8 signs to look out for…..
