What Are The Early Signs And Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

I have all signs of pregnancy. I was one week late for my period. Yesterday should have been the end of my period and I started to spot very light red blood. Not enough for a pad. Something happened today. Could I still be pregnant even though I am spotting?

Hi,
I understand your concern.
Pregnancy test ( home test after 8 days delay in periods ) or USG scan of uterus( after 5 weeks )are the confirmatory tests for pregnancy.
You have just spotting after 8 days delay in periods .. This can be a sign in weak pregnancy so you should go for home pregnancy test ( with precaution.. not to mix vaginal blood in urine sample ).. to diagnose / exclude pregnancy.
In case it 's +ve.. a hormone supplement ( with a gynecologist's advise ) should be started right away6.
Thanks.
