In modern medical science, pregnancy countdown is taken
start from the first day of the last menstruation. Therefore, on the first
week of pregnancy, as such, it is not yet. But at this time
the egg matures, which is prepared for fertilization.
The uniqueness of the female body is that the preparation for
possible pregnancy begins in the first days of each
menstrual cycle. At this time, the blood concentration increases
female sex hormone – progesterone. In order for the egg cell
fully matured need to spend two weeks, so this phase
and is called the first week of pregnancy. After all, it is in the specified
period formed the prototype of the unborn child.
Roughly twelfth to fourteenth day matured
the egg leaves the ovary and goes to the fallopian tube, where
meets with sperm. It is at the top of the masterbatch.
the tube and its fertilization takes place. In the process of connecting men
and female cells all information about the future man is already laid in
existing genetic material that consists of just one
ovum and single spermatozoon. Regardless
of what sex the child will be, he will inherit half of all
genetic characteristics from the mother and half from the father.

First week of pregnancy – changes in the body
Considering that the first week is still not a pregnancy, then
it is natural that a woman in this period no special
changes yet does not feel. However, the uterus has already received a signal
informing her that there was no conception in the previous month and
now the next layer of the endometrium gradually exfoliates that
manifested in the form of menstrual bleeding. Instead of old
the inner layer is formed new, which is created in order
to feed the future fetus. Thus menstruation provides
constant updating of the internal functional layer of the female
the uterus, signals the absence of pregnancy and stimulates
the formation of new blood elements. In connection with contraction of uterine
muscles during menstruation often pulls the abdomen. But,
despite the pain, given the possible occurrence of pregnancy, all

pass and feel better.
