Generally, if a healthy couple does not take contraceptive measures and has sex during the ovulation period, if the monthly period does not come on time, then it is very likely that they have successfully conceived.

2. Frequent urination: In the first three months of pregnancy, the uterus gradually grows in the pelvic cavity, pressing on the bladder, causing women to have the urge to urinate frequently. In the middle of pregnancy, the uterus will move up to the abdominal cavity, and the phenomenon of frequent urination will improve. But towards the end of pregnancy, frequent urination will reappear.

3. Changes in appetite, vomiting and nausea: Most women will experience nausea and vomiting when they are more than 6 weeks pregnant, usually within a few hours after getting up in the morning. Those with mild symptoms have a decreased appetite, occasional nausea, and vomiting. A few people have obvious symptoms, vomiting whatever they eat, and even if they don’t eat, they will vomit. The vomiting is not limited to the morning, and their sense of smell is particularly sensitive, and smelling disgusting odors will cause vomiting. Some friends may have drastic changes in their appetites. For example, they may suddenly want to eat a food they didn’t like before, or they may suddenly feel nauseous and unwilling to eat a food they used to like.

The temperature at this time is called basal body temperature. Generally, the body temperature is below 36.5 degrees before ovulation. After ovulation, the progesterone level rises and acts on the body temperature center, causing the body temperature to rise by 0.3-0.5 degrees. If the egg cannot be fertilized, progesterone levels will drop after about a week and the body temperature will return to normal; if pregnancy has occurred, progesterone levels will remain high, keeping the body temperature high as well.
