Implantation and Early Pregnancy Symptoms: How Early Can You Take a Pregnancy Test?

Video Overview & Insights

**Learn more about my new fertility course to enhance your natural fertility and optimize your lifestyle**

SO if my progesterone shows heightened stabilized numbers then it’s more likely to be due to HcG and therefore I can take an educated guess that I’m actually pregnant?? I track with Mira so my pdg is trackable per mlg

Dr. Natalie Crawford, MD, board certified OBGYN and REI, discusses one of the top questions she gets asked as a fertility doctor: what are the early signs of a pregnancy? In this video she reviews hormone changes in the luteal phase, the importance of progesterone, what exactly is the two week wait (TWW), and what happens as an embryo implants? All your implantation symptoms discussed in detail!

This might be TMI, but I’ve had a LOT of discharge the past couple of days. It’s been about a week since my husband & I tried to get pregnant, and the discharge is yellow, thick & white. Is that an early sign of pregnancy? Also my lower back has been hurting a lot since last week & it hasn’t gone away.

I really appreciate any help/advice if anyone can please answer I’d be so grateful! Good luck to everyone trying to get pregnant❤

Questions answered:

When does implantation occur?

46 years old, 6 weeks PO from my bilateral TR... I was left with 7cm on each side, I know GOD will do is big one!!

— @valshespeakspodcast

How early after implantation can you take a pregnancy test?

What are the early signs of pregnancy?

My husband and I just started trying! Wish us luck, we will out within 2 weeks if the first try was successful 🎉

— @magaroni59

What symptoms can you expect with early pregnancy?

What is the first sign of implantation?

This video was actually useless. You barely spoke about symptoms and how early to expect them. The drawing looking like a 5th grader did it the night before the project was due. So frustrating for moms.

— @juiicii1

What is the two week wait (TWW)?

What does progesterone do in the luteal phase?

I got a positive test at 7DPO and a digital positive at 9DPO and then when I was about 4 weeks pregnant I got a dye stealer.
I’m going to be getting my first scan in a few days to see what’s in there and to get a dating scan 😅
This is my 3rd pregnancy, I never have any issues with getting pregnant.

COME SAY HI!!!

My second time listening to it. I have faith and hope. I truly believe that there’s nothing impossible for God. I put my trust in him and I know that he will make this happen. He will give us the gift to become parents. I’ll have a good and smooth pregnancy and we’ll have a healthy child. In the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen 🙏🏻

Here I am around 10/11 DPO, 5th round of IUI (last cycle was chemical). I’ve been testing for the past 2 days but negative and now scared to test again. I’m also on progesterone suppository so not sure if my fatigue and cramping is a side effect of the medication or implantation.

I used to always imagine symptoms when I wasn't pregnant. When I DID get pregnant, almost no symptoms and I had cramps EXACTLY like before getting my period, and spotting once. Only symptom- 2-3 nights when I had trouble getting back to sleep... now I'm week 6 and only today I feel the tender-heavy breasts. So girls, don't worry if you don't have symptoms right from the start :)

I can’t wait to share my testimony.
I’m 43 years old. I’ve been through 4 failed IVFs, 3 miscarriages, and 1 ectopic pregnancy.
Sometimes you wonder if it will ever really happen for you. But reading and seeing the testimonies of others reminds me that miracles still happen every day.

Today I am 1 DPO, and I’m choosing hope. I believe my day is coming soon. 🤍

I felt a little like I was getting my period, and released a tiny amount of brown blood. I thought I was out! Life finds a way

I got my last period on December 6th and got this January own by 6th but today is 8th and it has stopped flowing and my breast is still tender although I tested on the 5th and got a negative test, is it possible that i might still be pregnant… Did I get an implantation bleeding or my period since it didn’t last as long as my regular period or heavy as my regular period

Pregnancy is 40 weeks because everything the Bible revolved around the number 40. It’s very interesting

@roseg1333

I had fatigue and mood swings the week before these dull cramps came. I thought for sure those were implantion cramps but I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative? A few more days went by then I had nausea and vomiting. Took a pregnancy test after that, still came back negative.. 2 days later my period came.
I have never been so confused in my life. It isn't normal for me to have cramping before I bleed. Ugh I believe I just went through a miscarriage but the negative tests really confused me 😢
I appreciate you explaining the implantion period. It helped me understand what happened this past week

@Elennar29

I just found out today I’m expecting, still in shock really I don’t know how to really feel. It’s been a long time I’ve been trying it’s kinda like my mind got so used to believing it would never happen I’m just like is this real is this really happening

I am two weeks late and noticed colustrum the other day. I had colostrum four months into my first pregnancy. I have so many symptoms. Cramping. Bloating. Sense of smell increased. Exhaustion. No period. And colustrum. My breasts are killing me. Taken several tests and they are all negative. I'm so confused.

I found out last night because I was having a really good day yesterday. All of my clients were good. But for some reason I was so irritable. And I cried at work. I was also so hangry. I took tests when I got home with the triple check first response and they all came back positive. I was 11 dpo.

I'm worried I'm on nexplanon and ive always had issues with my period since then. I'm not having any pregnancy symptoms and I've been under alot of stress. I keep worrying because I'm in no place to have a kid but I'm just scared I'm having the normal issues like I always do slight cramps b4 my period I even saw a bit of blood but the year I've had this in my arm it's always the same with my period so idk what I can do to calm my nerves besides taking a test

After ovulation and sex, when the embryo is trying to implant, what can I do to make sure it happens? I feel like I must be doing something wrong
