Most of the symptoms are also symptoms of PMS, unfortunately. For example, many pregnant women have felt light cramping and spotting for a couple of days in early pregnancy.
Nausea / Vomitting
Cravings
Appetite changes (increase / decrease)
Frequent urination
Irritability
Fatigue
Breast tenderness
Hot / cold flashes
Mood swings
Diarrhea / constipation
Lightheadedness
Dizziness
Heartburn
Bloating
Lower back discomfort
Sensitivities to smells
Body temperature increase
Weight gain (if very overweight, unexlained weightloss may also be a symptom)
A positive pregnancy test ;)
Your doctor will probably take a urine sample. They may also draw a small amount of blood if they feel it's necessary (but usually they only do urine unless you request the bloodwork for a pregnancy test result).
They will ask when your last period was. When you had intercourse. How many people you've slept with.

im a 17 year old with a 15 month old.
My symptoms were nausea, vomiting, constipation, mood swings / very emotional, painful breasts, slight weight gain, acne, and increased appetite. I didnt find out until I was 2.5 months along.
youll just have a test, then the doctor will talk with you about your options. its completely confidential.
If you plan on carrying the baby, you go to the doctor every 1-2 months, and the visits will get closer together. Youll get ultrasounds, maybe a papsmear, and other tests throughout your pregnancy.
Good luck.
