There are several almost unnoticed first week pregnancy symptoms, although most women experience them. Would you recognize them? If you are currently trying to GET PREGNANT, you are probably looking and hoping for even the slightest pregnancy symptom. Very early pregnancy symptoms experienced within the first seven days of conception could go unnoticed if you are not looking for them, yet most women experience them.

The first early pregnancy symptom that most women miss is a change in their cervical mucus. Once you conceive, your body starts forming the mucus plug. Most women after they ovulate, they experience their cervical mucus has dried up and becomes almost non-existent for several days. However if you have conceived, it is not uncommon for your cervical mucus to remain abundant.

It’s common to experience no symptoms during the first weeks of pregnancy.

Some women experience no symptoms at all during their first week of pregnancy. Remember that it is early, and the body might not even be sure how to react to this change just yet. Do not feel surprised or concerned if there are no symptoms of pregnancy in the first week. This occurrence is common and not a cause for concern.

Implantation bleeding:

Many women mistake this for their period, and later symptoms for the flu or some kind of illness. Implantation bleeding will occur approximately 8 days after conception. It will be shorter and lighter than the average 5 day cycle, and the blood may appear a lighter color. Implantation bleeding is the very first sign of pregnancy, and is caused, as it’s name suggests by the fertilized egg implanting in the uterine wall. Implantation bleeding does not occur in every pregnancy.

Immediate Attention

As mentioned, each and every stage of pregnancy is highly important. The initial stages are even more crucial because of threat of miscarriage is at its peak in these initial weeks of pregnancy. Thus to take appropriate steps right away it is important to know when the pregnancy period begins.

Although, it is fair to say that some people do know that they have become pregnant as soon as the first week. They find it difficult to explain how they know this, however it is thought that it is more about instinct, perhaps even desire than knowing for absolute certain. Yet, the facts do suggest that we do start to feel a little differently after conception, so there might be something in it. For certain, not everyone is like this as there are often people that do not have a single inkling of being pregnant, despite being 3 weeks late for their period.
