For instance, heartburn is a pretty common pregnancy symptom, but one that can be managed through proper hydration, eating more small meals, and avoiding spicy or acidic foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tracking the occurrence of certain symptoms against your other data can help you determine the best course of action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Symptoms to never ignore<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to monitoring and managing your expected pregnancy symptoms, tracking can also help you pick up on the symptoms that may denote a bit of trouble. Heavy vaginal bleeding, as an example, is something that should always necessitate a call to your healthcare provider, so tracking your symptoms closely will let you know when it might be time to seek help. Severe headaches, serious swelling, vision changes, high blood pressure, decreased fetal movement, leaking fluid, or significant abdominal pain are also reasons to call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Reviewed by the Ovia Health Clinical Team<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"\/guide\/10084\/serious-pregnancy-symptoms\">Serious pregnancy symptoms you should never ignore<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"\/guide\/10057\/about-smart-tracking\">About smart tracking with Ovia<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mayo Clinic Staff. &#8220;Symptoms of pregnancy &#8211; What happens right away.&#8221; <em>Mayo Clinic.<\/em> Mayo Clinic, 7\/12\/2013.
