But other symptoms may be signs of more serious trouble. These include:

  • Severe nausea and vomiting.
  • Bleeding from the vagina.
  • Severe abdominal pain.
  • A temperature of more than 99.5 Fahrenheit.
  • Leaking of amniotic fluid from the vagina.
  • Strong, regular contractions before the due date.
