Pregnancy Week 3 is when the magic often happens — conception!

After ovulation, a sperm may successfully fertilize the egg, forming a brand-new bundle of cells called a zygote. This tiny cluster immediately begins dividing and traveling down the fallopian tube toward the uterus, where it will (hopefully) implant and start developing into an embryo.

You likely won’t feel any different yet, but behind the scenes, life is beginning in the most incredible way. It’s still too early for a positive pregnancy test, but exciting changes are already underway!
