Although one woman may notice slight symptoms at this point, many others won't. (This is why a prenatal diet and vitamins are crucial before conceiving.)  If no symptoms or signs are apparent just yet, rest assured that it's very normal.

Tips for this week

Take every day calmly and slowly. If you have missed your period, take a home pregnancy test. You can also call your gynecologist and ask for a blood hCG test. This test will be required after a positive home pregnancy test anyway. Keep in mind, that your doctor may make you wait a bit before testing at this early stage.
