Fetal Weight Standard

During week 1 of pregnancy, you are not actually pregnant yet in biological terms. Obstetrical dating counts gestational age starting from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). Your body is preparing the uterine lining for ovulation and subsequent fertilization.

Hormone levels such as Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) rise, triggering the maturation of ovarian follicles. One dominant follicle will soon release a viable ovum ready for conception.

Frequently Asked Questions About 1 Weeks Pregnant

Obstetricians worldwide standardize gestational age from the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) because the exact hour of ovulation and fertilization is difficult to pinpoint, whereas the onset of menstruation is an easily identifiable calendar benchmark. Naegele's rule relies on this 280-day framework.
