women with pseudocyesis have many of the same symptoms as those who are actually pregnant including: stopping of menstrual period. swollen belly. enlarged and tender breasts changes in the nipples and possibly milk production. feeling of fetal movements. nausea and vomiting. weight gain. these symptoms can last for just a few weeks for nine months or even for several years. a very small percentage of patients with false pregnancy will arrive at the doctor's office or hospital with what feels like labor pains but they will not deliver a baby.
