Hi,
I understand your concern.
* Lac of appetite, dizziness, mild head aches & in creased thirst are known effects early weeks of pregnancy due to Raised pregnancy hormones/changes in blood circulation in pregnancy..It slowly reduces as maternal body gets used to it.
The symptoms are added up by original general condition of mother.factors like anemia/ lac of food digestion, tendensy to catch cold affect.
- In case the symptoms are exaggerated/ long lasting attention should be given in improvement of the general condition by improving appetite, diet, dietary supplements.- which is usually advised by a gynecologist during routine pregnancy check ups..
* Increased water intake is also a sign of pregnancy, because body needs more water these days. You can drink ample of liquids including milk,juices, soups & waters. It's good to drink water .except after 7 pm ,as it may interfere with your sleep.
Thanks.
