Pregnancy Symptoms
Before you may even suspect you are pregnant, your body will
be undergoing significant changes which are designed to support your developing
embryo? Surges of pregnancy hormones such as estrogen, progesterone and HCG
(human chorionic gonadotropin), will all synchronize to create a nourishing,
protected environment for your newly fertilized and implanted egg.
When will I feel
anything?
Most women don’t start to experience early pregnancy
symptoms until around week 6 of their pregnancy, however there is a large
variation between individuals. Some women are so acutely tuned into their
bodies that they know almost from the moment of conception, that something is
going on. If you have been trying to conceive, you are more likely to be alert
for changes in your body. Couples undergoing fertility, for example, are often
acutely aware of early pregnancy indicators.
If you have been trying to conceive, you are probably aware
of not building up your hopes too much. The inevitable disappointment which
comes from having a negative pregnancy test or getting a period is a familiar
experience for many women. Remember, if you have been using hormone based
contraception, it can take up to 12 months for conception to occur after
ceasing it.
But I don’t feel any
different
Don’t worry if you don’t experience all or many of these
pregnancy symptoms. Some women will sail through the early stages with little
or no measurable change to how they usually feel. This does not mean they are
less pregnant or more at risk than women who have every pregnancy symptom it is
possible to have.
