Pseudocyesis also referred to as pseudopregnancy or false pregnancy is a condition in which a non-pregnant woman believes that she is pregnant, even though there is no physical evidence of pregnancy, she often experience real pregnancy symptoms. Women who are most at risk to experience false symptoms are:

-*- Women who have suffered a miscarriage or who have lost a child

-*- Women in their late thirties or early forties, who have been trying to conceive for many years and who may have fertility problems.

The Causes!

Experts believe that emotional conflict is the principal cause. It is thought that an intense desire to become pregnant, or an intense fear of becoming pregnant, can create internal conflicts and changes in the endocrine system, which may explain some of the symptoms of pseudocyesis, and which are similar to the symptoms of true pregnancy and are often hard to distinguish from it but you should pay attention to them.

Her is Four of these principal false pregnancy symptoms you should know:

Missed Period

This is the most common symptom, if your period doesn't arrive on time there is a chance that you are pregnant, but if you are not regular and don't keep track of your cycle this could be a false symptoms.

Tender Breasts

This is an early signs of pregnancy, sensitive, sore breasts, but his can also be a sign of your period.

Morning Sickness

This is one of the early pregnancy symptoms; I think it's the hormonal change that contributes to the feeling of sleepiness.

Widening of the Abdomen

You may feel bloated, the abdomen expands in the same manner as it does during pregnancy, this can be caused by buildup of gas, fat, feces, and urinary retention.

The Solution

You can use a home pregnancy test, which can give you a false pregnancy positive results, so, if you need a more accurate way to detect an early pregnancy symptoms you can use the clinical blood test which is more accurate.

But I hope if you are experiencing early pregnancy symptoms, they are true and soon you will be mom :D, Good Luck
