Your Pregnancy At Weeks 1-3

Overview
What you may experience
Physical Changes
14 days before the end of your cycle, your ovaries will produce about 20 eggs (ova). The eggs will begin to ripen and occupy follicles. One of these fluid-filled sacs (follicles) will mature and rupture, releasing an egg that will travel down the fallopian tube and will await fertilization. You are most fertile at this time.
Emotional Feelings
If this is your first attempt at pregnancy, you are filled with a variety of different emotions. Excitement, hope, apprehension and anxiety are usually at the top of the list. If this is not your first try or if you have had miscarriages, anxiety is the number one emotion. As hard as it is to let go, try very to keep your stress and anxiety level at a minimum. We all know that our bodies do not work well under stress. Try to keep in mind that you only have about a 20% chance of getting pregnant each month. If after one year of unprotected intercourse, you have not achieved pregnancy, don't give up. There are many options and choices from Infertility Specialists to Acupuncture.
