Changes in Your Body after Conceiving
Once the implantation is successful, human chorionic gonadotropin or hCG is secreted by the forming placenta. This is the hormone that is responsible for all the changes in the body after getting pregnant. The hCG hormone helps in preparing the body to sustain the pregnancy. Below listed are some of the changes the body can undergo:
Implantation Bleeding or Pain
During conception, you may feel a short and stabbing pain in your belly. Some may even experience slight bleeding or spotting which is totally normal.
Tender Breasts
The hormones produced during pregnancy prepare your breasts to produce milk post delivery. This can make your breasts feel fuller, firmer and tender.
Frequent Urination
Frequent urination during pregnancy is often caused by pregnancy hormones, an increase in the amount and speed of blood circulating through your body. Hormonal changes make your blood flow to your kidneys more quickly, filling your bladder more often – which causes more frequent urination during pregnancy.
Fatigue
Since the levels of progesterone hormone soar up high during pregnancy, you may feel sleepy and tired most of the time.
Swollen Feet
Your growing uterus places pressure on the veins, blocking the return of blood from your heart to the feet which can cause swelling
Heartburn
The muscle-relaxing hormones and growing uterus cause heartburn and other indigestion issues during pregnancy.
Most of these changes are normal and there is nothing to worry about. However, your doctor will be able to give you a better picture.
