Implantation

75 Comments

Implantation typically occurs 6 to 10 days after ovulation, or day 20 to 24 of a menstrual cycle. However, it can happen a few days earlier or later. In an average, 28-day cycle, ovulation occurs on day 14 (the first day of a period is considered day 1 in a cycle). Once fertilization occurs, the egg stays in the fallopian tube for 3 days before entering the uterus and begins to implant to the uterine lining.

Implantation is usually a quite gentle process, with very few symptoms that can be felt or noticed. Most symptoms are usually detected or diagnosed as implantation once a pregnancy has been confirmed; that is, once you realize you’re pregnant, certain symptoms you might have noticed a few days prior will match up to those common to implantation.

That said, following are some typical signs of implantation.

Just because you may have felt some of these symptoms, you may not necessarily be pregnant. Only a positive pregnancy test or a blood test performed by your doctor can confirm that pregnancy has occurred.

On the other hand, don’t despair if you haven’t felt or noticed any of these signs of implantation. Very few women actually notice implantation, and not feeling implantation does not mean that you are not pregnant. If you think you might be pregnant, be sure to make an appointment with your doctor to confirm a pregnancy.

Bentleigh, you and i are in the same boat. like exact same boat, same days. i have mydays on my phone and had sex on the 5th. i'm supposed to start my period today as well, but i haven't seen any signs. i took a pregnancy test this morning though and it was negative. i feel pregnant though. i have been extremely exhausted, i sleep all day till i have to work, then i come home, shower and sleep again. my boobs have grown atleast a cup size, i can't even wear a wire bra anymore. my stomach looks swollen and i was spotting around the time of implantation. i have felt nauseated around certain things, like fast food, some cologne, flowery smells and cigarette smoke (i just quit so idk if that's why or if it is a sign) this is my 3rd pregnancy if i am pregnant, but the other 2 ended in miscarriage. i'm just going to wait a few days and take another test. i'm trusting my instincts, and have started eating healthier. i quit smoking the day i had unprotected sex, just because i knew there would be a chance i could get pregnant. all we can do is wait it out. :/ good luck!
