Symptoms of Pregnancy in First Week

What are the symptoms of pregnancy in first week?

Even before you miss your periods, you may sometimes get some early signs of pregnancy. But many early signs of pregnancy can sometimes feel similar to premenstrual symptoms too.

When do the early signs of pregnancy start? 

Do you remember when you had your past periods? This date is considered week 1 of pregnancy – yes, even if you were not pregnant at this date. Then week 2 of pregnancy is the next week from your period and so on. So do women get the symptoms of pregnancy in first week? 

Even before you miss your periods, you may sometimes get some early signs of pregnancy. For some women, early symptoms of pregnancy start to show up in the first few weeks after conception. However, other women may just experience no pregnancy symptoms at all. It’s only when they take a pregnancy test at home that they come to know about their pregnancy. 

Many early signs of pregnancy can sometimes feel similar to premenstrual symptoms too. So the best way to find out about your pregnancy is to take a pregnancy test at home. However, if you are willing to wait for a missed period (the earliest sign of pregnancy) to take the test, the following list is for you. These are also the symptoms of pregnancy in first month. 

These are some of the early signs of pregnancy (pregnancy symptoms week 1) before a missed period: 

  • Painful breasts: this could be a sign that you’re pregnant, but it could also just be because you’re going through puberty.
  • Feeling low on energy 
  • Sensitivity to smell 
  • Rise in your basal metabolic temperature (normal body temperature) 
  • Tiredness: this could be a sign that you’re pregnant – though obviously there could be other causes!
  • Nausea: if you’ve been feeling sick for a few days, especially in the morning, it’s a good idea to do a pregnancy test.
  • Your period doesn’t start.
  • You only have a very small amount of bleeding. Sometimes you can have a little bleeding when you’re pregnant.
  • Headaches 
  • Constipation 
  • Feeling lightheaded or dizzy – as if you are fainting 
  • Mood sings 
  • Aversion to some foods
  • Frequent urination 

How soon can you get early signs of pregnancy? 

Before you miss your periods, you may notice some symptoms like sensitivity to smell and tender breasts. These symptoms may appear in some women as soon as a few days after conception. 

However, many women may get other early symptoms of pregnancy like spotting or nausea almost one week after the sperm meets egg. After two weeks of conceiving many women may also have pregnancy symptoms like tender breasts and frequent urination. That said, early pregnancy symptoms appear at various times in different women. So these early signs of pregnancy are no way of detecting a pregnancy. 

If you have had unprotected sex and worried about pregnancy, please take a home pregnancy test at the earliest.

Priyanka bete this is not conclusive sign of any sort for pregnancy. Symptoms don’t come so soon anyway. It’s perhaps fear and nervousness more than anything else. Take a home pregnancy test at the earliest... and NEVER have sex without a condom. Ok?

I had intercourse with my boy friend on Oct 10 and oct 22 i got my periods regular in regular cycle hereafter any chances to get pregnancy.
If you are still having periods after unsafe sex, then there are virtually no chances of being pregnant. But just to be on the safe side, it would be wise to take a home pregnancy test. Please use condom next time. https://lovematters.in/hi/pregnancy/unsure-about-being-pregnant/unsafe-sex-missed-period-am-i-pregnant https://lovematters.in/hi/pregnancy/home-pregnancy-tests-dos-and-donts If you would like to join in on a further discussion on this topic, join our discussion board, ‘Just Ask’ https://lovematters.in/en/forum

Priya bete there are some emergency pills like Unwanted 72, I Pill etc.,these pills are supposed to be used in EMERGENCY only- under 72 hours of unsafe sex, But not for everyday use when you don't use protection because these affect the menstrual cycle of a woman.

Pooja bete symptoms don’t come so soon anyway, if you want to check - do a home test - after 10 days of the sex. If your result comes positive then go see your doctor - she can do a exam and find out... and along with you can even show her your PCOS matters... Yes? Go ahead bete and let us know what has finally emerged. Best of luck Beta!

heloo maam, during inital years i used to have irregular period but ever since lockdown my period were extremely regular. but in december i had my period after a 40 day gap instead of the usual 30 day gap. I had my last period on 17th december and a guy fingered me on 29th december.....i have never had sex.But today its 27th of jan and i still havent had any signs of period. is there a little chance that i might be pregnant??
Dimple bete it's not possible to get pregnant through fingering or masturbation. It'd necessary for the male's sperm to reach the ovum in the female body for which vaginal sex is required. https://lovematters.in/hi/making-love/ways-to-make-love/women-masturbating https://lovematters.in/hi/making-love/virginity/will-i-break-her-hymen-if-i-finger-her And periods are irregular when they start, but if it is irregular every month, please again consult a specialist or a registered doctor soon.

Ranu bete relax! Seemingly there is no chance of pregnancy in this situation and there is no chance of pregnancy through oral sex also.

No Reena bete - these are not conclusive signs of any sort for pregnancy. Symptoms don’t come so soon anyway. It’s perhaps anything else - please consult a registered doctor for these problems. And if you want to be sure about pregnancy - do a home test - after 10 days of the unsafe sex. https://lovematters.in/hi/pregnancy/home-pregnancy-tests-dos-and-donts https://lovematters.in/en/pregnancy/being-pregnant/pregnancy-side-effects If you would like to join in on a further discussion on this topic, join our discussion board, "Just Ask” https://lovematters.in/en/forum
My frnd had unsafe sex on 17th day in the last month... She had 25 days periods since 4 months..she didn't get my periods this month even it's been 30 days nearly.. Is there any chance to get pregnant
Dear Varsa bete , First I suggest to check the situation - do a home test - as earlier as possible... and NEVER have sex without a condom.

HI, while we were having roll play (no sexual intercorse of whatsoever) after my first ejaculation i went and washed my penis, the second time however after my ejaculation( cumming) i didnt wash my penis instead i just used a big towel to clean the sperm/cum and after that i rubbed her vagina with my penis a couple of times, is there any chances of my gf getting pregnant?? when we discussed about it she mentioned she's having disorder in her period timings and this is the 12th day after this happening and she said she saw a tiny blood clot kind of mark on her panties resembling to the kind of marks that shows up while she's having periods but still we are confused and tensed, please help me out!!
Virtually there is no chance in this situation, because for pregnancy, it is important that the male sperm to go into the vagina of the woman and fertilize her ovum - which can only be done by sexual intercourse. So don't worry - but to assure yourself - do a home pregnancy test and calm yourself down. Sometimes trauma upsets our cycle too.. https://lovematters.in/hi/pregnancy/home-pregnancy-tests-dos-and-donts If you would like to join in on a further discussion on this topic, join our discussion board, ‘Just Ask’ https://lovematters.in/en/forum
Hello ma'am, i and my partner had unprotected intercourse 4-5days ago. She had pill named Unwanted72 instantly after intercourse. Today after 4-5 days, she feels bitter taste on toung and very light stomachache. Is there any chances of her getting pregnant??
Dear bete Unwanted 72 pills are very trustworthy, so pregnancy chances are not the same after taking it, but if you have any doubts, take a home pregnancy test and make sure of the situation. These pills are not supposed to be used in place of contraceptives because these affect the menstrual cycle of a woman. PLEASE do not use these carelessly. Please use a condom from today onward, for her and for you.

I had unprotected sex on 13th April and I had an Ipill within an hour. To be on a safer side I took Unwanted 72 the next day .How much time should I wait for my next period cycle to come? Also are there any chances of getting pregnant as I didn't have any side effects of the pill.
Simran bete two emergency contraceptive pills within 24 hours?? Do you know these pills affect the menstrual cycle of a woman... PLEASE do not use these carelessly. Since you have take two pills, it's not surprising for periods to be irregular. Wait for some more days and then Consult a specialist or a registered doctor. Please use a condom from today onward bete. And these pills are very trustworthy, so pregnancy chances are not the same after taking it, but if you have any doubts, take a home pregnancy test and make sure of the situation.
