S a rule, it is not a difficult matter to determinewhether a woman is pregnant, although cases haveoccurred in which mistakes were made. Physicianshave operated on a supposed abdominal tumor only to find a pregnant uterus. There are certain symptoms, however, which are us-ually present in a woman who is with child. But they mayoccur in conditions other than pregnancy, and they maybe absent, though the woman be in a family way. Thephysician is the only person who is competent to decide. The Commonest Symptoms of Pregnancy.—The mostcommon symptoms of pregnancy experienced by the motherare (i) cessation of menstruation, (2) morning sickness,(3) changes in the size, shape and appearance of the ab-domen, (4) changes in the breasts, and (5) quickening.

These, too,occur in other conditions and cannot be regarded asdiagnostic. CHANGES IN THE BREASTS.
