Pregnancy means that you are in an important episode of your life. Where racing hormones can cause mood swings from joyfulness to bleakness at the same time. The heebie- jeebie feeling of becoming parent and the disturbing change in the body shape can become really difficult at times. No matter how positive you are but the discord in your feelings at the time of pregnancy is something very normal.

The first thing that has to be repeatedly reminded is to accept your pregnancy; it may sound axiomatic but yes! Initially it is a delicate picture of adorable trine until your body starts showing it off. Its actually good to have those conflicting feeling, it means that u have started to tune in with the responsibilities of the situation. The reasonable fear of taking care of a delicate and sweet child, the worry of withstanding the pain, the anticipated embarrassment etc. are really normal just remember one thing that the doctor and the attendants are aware of it and they have done this before also! So nothing to worry about.

Pregnancy occurs due to the fusion of sperm nucleus and oocyte nucleus it can be commonly understood as fusion of male and female gamete. In medical terms the process is called as fertilization, whereas in commonly it is known by conception. The fertilization occurs due to the sexual intercourse activity which results in spontaneous pregnancy. Pregnancy is marked by failure in menstruation. The probability of conceiving is different in different phases of menstrual cycle. The least fertile period being the proliferative phase which is counted from the last day of menstruation till one week and the highly fertile period being the ovulatory phase.

During the follicular phase that happens to be just before the ovulatory phase the female egg gets matured the luteinizing hormone causes the weakening of follicle walls thus releasing the secondary oocyte. This phase is fertile because the egg is released from the ovary and can easily be fertilized by sperms. Sperms can survive from 72 hrs up till 1 week in the female vaginal tract.

The conception is commencement of actual pregnancy. Pregnancy is for 266 days from the date of conception. The conception date is counted from the first day of last menstrual periods (LMP). Error can occur in calculating the due date because of some wrack-ups, for e.g. implantation bleeding, this is actually petite than the normal menstrual flow and can sometime be noticed as spotting. This bleeding can be mistaken as normal periods also. There can be various reasons for this. A pregnancy test at home or consultation from a doctor is recommended in such cases.

This also helps in maintaining distances with stress of due date approaching. Error can occur in calculating due date due to some wrack-ups for e.g. implantation bleeding.
