Every women had different symptoms of pregnancy. For me, I never felt any symptoms on my first and 1rst month of pregnancy. I was 1 month and 3 weeks delayed on my monthly period, before I found out that I was pregnant. Some of my symptoms after two months was the one I color shaded.

This would be helpful hint to all women who was delayed on their regular monthly period. If you have one of this symptoms, you could be pregnant.
