Healthcare providers use the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) as an important marker to count these weeks of pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>Fertilization doesn&#8217;t occur until next week or the week following, so right now, sperm and egg are still waiting in the wings and <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> is just an idea. If you are trying to conceive (TTC) without assistance, in about another week, one of your eggs, containing half of <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>\u2019s genetic material, will be released from your ovaries and the sperm, containing the other half, will fertilize it and kickstart pregnancy!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What&#8217;s new with you?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Because you haven\u2019t conceived yet, this preconception period is really all about taking good care of yourself to prepare for your pregnancy journey ahead. Getting enough sleep, staying active in whatever form is best for you, eating a nutritious and balanced diet, starting a prenatal vitamin, getting help for the use of substances like alcohol and tobacco (if needed), and generally taking care of your overall health can encourage a quicker conception and a healthier pregnancy.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Reviewed by the Ovia Health Clinical Team, Feb 2024<\/h5>\n<div style=\"color: grey;\">\n<h5>Read more<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/guide\/10398\/early-signs-of-pregnancy-1\">Early signs of pregnancy<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/guide\/10092\/newly-pregnant\">Newly pregnant?
