Presumptive, Probable & Positive Signs of Pregnancy | OB Nursing Review

🤰 How can you tell the difference between presumptive, probable, and positive signs of pregnancy? In this Everything OB video, we break down the three categories of pregnancy signs and explain how nurses distinguish subjective symptoms, objective findings, and definitive evidence of pregnancy. We also apply the concepts with practice questions to help you recognize these findings in clinical scenarios. This video is designed for healthcare learners, nursing students, OB/maternity nursing students, new nurses, anyone preparing for the NCLEX, and those wanting to learn more about pregnancy, labor, and birth. 💗 In this video, you'll learn about: • Presumptive signs of pregnancy — subjective signs reported by the patient • Probable signs of pregnancy — objective findings identified by the healthcare provider • Positive signs of pregnancy — findings that confirm the presence of a fetus • Amenorrhea • Breast changes and other early pregnancy symptoms • Quickening — the first fetal movements felt by the mother • Braxton Hicks contractions • Ballottement • Hegar sign • Chadwick sign • Goodell sign • Positive pregnancy tests • How to distinguish subjective vs. objective findings • How to recognize findings that definitively confirm pregnancy • Practice questions to apply what you've learned 🧠 Remember: Not every sign that suggests pregnancy can confirm pregnancy. Understanding which findings are presumptive, probable, or positive is an important part of prenatal nursing assessment. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Introduction 0:14 Understanding Presumptive Signs of Pregnancy 1:23 Probable Signs — Objective Clinical Assessments 3:12 Positive Signs — Confirming the Fetus 4:04 Applying Knowledge — Practice Questions 8:56 Closing 📚 Everything OB provides OB nursing education for healthcare learners, medical and nursing students, new nurses, and nurses learning to care for pregnant patients, laboring patients, postpartum patients, and newborns.
