What is considered early pregnancy?

I think I might be pregnant, and I'm very early on, so I'm trying to be careful. What exactly is considered early pregnancy in terms of weeks or symptoms?

Early pregnancy is the first trimester, which is from week 1 to week 12. Since I manage diabetes, my doctor told me that monitoring blood sugar closely during these first 12 weeks is extremely critical for baby's development.

The first three months are what we call early pregnancy. In my experience, this is the time to rest as much as possible and not worry about minor morning sickness. It is a beautiful phase, just take care of your health.

Early pregnancy typically spans from conception to the 12th week of gestation. Do not follow random online home remedies for morning sickness or cramping. Always verify any symptom or supplement directly with your OB-GYN.

It refers to the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. During this early stage, focusing on folate-rich vegetarian foods like spinach, lentils, and oranges is highly beneficial. Avoid raw sprouts and wash your vegetables thoroughly.

Early pregnancy is the first trimester, basically up to 12 weeks. I spent those weeks constantly googling every minor cramp and symptom! Try to avoid doing that, just stay in touch with your gynecologist and rest.
