We are planning for a baby and i realised i dont actually understand the whole process properly. Just want to know in simple words how it all begins. Anyone can explain?
Basically egg and sperm meet and fuse, thats fertilization, then implantation happens after. Are you studying about it or just curious about how it all starts?
Simply put, its the moment the egg and sperm combine to start a new life. After that it implants in the womb and grows into the baby. Thats the very first step of pregnancy.
I was reading about this too while planning. From what I understood, fertilization is egg plus sperm joining, and then it settles in the uterus. It made the whole process feel less confusing.
Fertilization is when the sperm meets and joins the egg, usually in the fallopian tube. That fertilised egg then travels and implants in the uterus, and thats when pregnancy actually begins. My doctor explained it nicely with a diagram.
