Pregnancy Week 1Very Early Symptoms of PregnancyPregnancy Week 1: this is the very start of the pregnancy journey. Even though there may be few actual signs of pregnancy , some women are sufficiently tuned in to their natural cycle to notice certain key changes, the more so if they are keen to conceive a baby.Creating a baby should be a joyful process - and mostly it is - but sometimes the symptoms of conception are elusive - or easily imagined.
Monitoring their own fertility is something millions of women have become used to, whether it's through checking the cervical mucous (otherwise known as knicker-gazing) or by monitoring their basal body temperature. If you are one of these women, then spotting pregnancy week 1 may be easier for you than for most. Fertility Monitoring Methods1) Physical Clues to Ovulation.a) Mild pain or a cramping sensation on either the left or the right side of the lower abdomen. This is something that many women notice around the time of ovulation. Ranging from a dull ache to quite a severe cramping feeling, this may occur just before, at the time of or just after ovulation. b) Changes in the cervical mucous. These happen at the time of ovulation: the mucous typically becomes more slippery and stretchy, rather like egg white. c) A rise in the basal body temperature. This is a more scientific way to detect ovulation and involves checking your temperature on a daily basis. Normal body temperature is between 96.0 and 97.5 degrees Fahrenheit. This means that if you're trying to conceive, you need to keep accurate records for several months in order to spot that vital time just before ovulation when conception can occur. Once you see the temperature spike you've passed the time of maximum fertility and once conception has taken place, your temperature will remain elevated. Technically, this is pregnancy week 1. If you're not pregnant, it will fall back to normal again. 2) The Art of Basal Body Temperature Recording Knowing you're in the 1st week of pregnancy, then, could be spotted from noting that instead of your temperature going back to normal after your usual ovulation, it stays elevated. If this is combined with the non-appearance of your usual egg-white-consistency cervical mucous, and/or you didn't get the usual dull ache or cramp associated with ovulation...then all three together could add up to a baby! Are there any other 1 week pregnant signs? During the first 2 weeks of pregnancy your hormone levels fluctuate very rapidly, but it is still far too early to take a pregnancy test. The clues to very early pregnancy are subtle and easy to confuse - or imagine - but the more tuned in and sensitive you are to your normal menstrual cycle (even if 'normal' for you is a bit erratic, as long as you know it well you're in with a chance!) - then the more likely it is you can notice such very early signs of pregnancy.
