Symptoms of Pregnancy

How soon will symptoms of pregnancy show up? Is it possible to get them onl a week after having sex?

if conception happened on the day of O then it would be possible in about a week. when i was pregnant i had symptoms from about 2 weeks after conception. some women don't have any though. if you are thinking you are pregnant DO NOT go on symptoms as a sign as they can be in your head, this has happened to me many times!!!if you have symptoms there must be hcg in your blood so a hpt should show positive! i know its hard waiting till your periods due but it saves alot of money and upset. from now on i only test if af is late not before.

It is highly highly unlikely to experience symptoms of pg within one week of having sex.  This is because it takes 6-10 days for the fertilized egg to travel down your fallopian tube and implant in your uterus and then more time beyond that to produce enough hcg for your system to be reacting to.

Take a test when your period is due, using first morning urine.

Good luck; I remember you from a couple months ago talking about starting a family.  :-)

YES YES YES - You most defintely CAN feel symptoms a week after having sex.  I did with my DD - My DH and I had sex and I was tired, dry heaving in the sink and had heartburn within the week - I knew a couple weeks before I was due for AF that she wan't coming.
