To start with, a mare will not act differently. Your only signs will be when she doesn't come in heat at her normal time. Then, about 6 months along (give or takea bit), the mare should start to show. About then, or maybe more like 8 or 9, sometimes not until the 11 month, they may start to show resistance when you are riding. After all, but then, they are carrying about 100pounds or more of foal, and then with you and the tack on them, it can accumulate into some heavy pressure.

Then, within a week or two before birth is when the mare really starts acting different. a usually very social horse may become standoffish, away from the other horses and/or people. Or, a usually standoffish horse may start hanging out with other horses and/or people. Their eating habits may change and they may develop some vices, like biting and offering to kick. While this is normal, it should not be tolerated.

if you suspect your horse to be pregnant, call a vet as soon as possible. There are many changes you need to make when taking care of a pregnant horse. A horse could show no changes when they are pregnant until they are in labor. When in labor the horse will pace around, breath heavy, etc. If your horse is acting like this weather they are pregnant or not, you should call a vet.
