Due to the fact that the first day of the last menstrual period is considered the beginning of pregnancy, in the 1st week of pregnancy you only have a period. During the 2nd week, ovulation occurs (day 14, in the case of a longer cycle it is later), during which fertilization can occur. The egg must be embedded in the thickened lining of the uterus. It is the nesting of the egg that brings with it the first symptoms of pregnancy . The very first signs of pregnancy are basically the symptoms of regular menstruation. Therefore, women can confuse them with premenstrual syndrome.

Implantation spasms , implantation bleeding , bloating or constipation may occur. Mild spotting or discharge, pain in the lower abdomen or painful cramps, sensitive and enlarged breasts or fatigue are typical.

You can already take a pregnancy test during the first week, but it is necessary to choose one with high sensitivity so that it can record the increasing values of the pregnancy hormone hCG. Its result may not be accurate, to be sure, it should be done again at the time when your period should have ended.
