       0 Days Post Ovulation
       Ovulation occurs and fertilization follows. Egg meets sperm
       (typically within the fallopian tubes) within 6-12 hours of
       ovulation. A zygote is formed.
       1-2 Days Post Ovulation
       Cell division (cleavage) starts 24-30 hours after fertilization;
       2 cells become 4 cells, become 8 cells. As cell division occurs,
       the embryo starts to move through the fallopian tube towards the
       uterus.
       3 Days Post Ovulation
       [/u][/b]While still in the fallopian tube, the embryo is solid
       ball containing 12 to 16 cells and is called a morula. The
       embryo is encased in a protective coating called the zona
       pellucida that prevents it from sticking. The morula reaches the
       uterus approximately 2-3 days after fertilization.
       4 Days Post Ovulation
       The morula is 16 to 32 cells and reaches the uterine cavity
       around the 3.5 to 4th day. Here the morula starts to develop
       into an early blastocyst. A fluid-filled inner cavity develops
       and surface cells form the trophoblast (which will become the
       placenta) and the inner cell mass becomes the fetus.
       5 Days Post Ovulation
       The blastocyst is formed and remains free-floating. The
       protective shell around the blastocyst, known as the zona
       pellucida, starts to dissolve after arriving in the uterus in
       anticipation of implantation. This generally occurs within 72
       hours of arriving in the uterus.
       6 Days Post Ovulation
       The blastocyst makes contact with the uterine lining.
       [u]7 Days Post Ovulation
       The blastocyst starts to burrow into the uterine lining. This is
       also called adhesion and is marked by increased interaction
       between the blastocyst and the uterine lining.
       ❗Implantation cramps are possible. Most likely to occur
       days 7-9.❗
       8 Days Post Ovulation
       The early placenta starts producing human chorionic
       gonadotrophin (hCG) hormone. This hormone can be identified in
       the blood and urine of the mother as a positive pregnancy test
       as early as 8 to 9 days. Earlier detection depends on the amount
       of hCG present and the sensitivity of the testing method. With a
       very sensitive detection method (most likely blood test), a
       pregnancy test can be positive at this stage.
       ❗Implantation cramps are possible. Most likely to occur
       days 7-9.❗
       9 Days Post Ovulation
       The blastocyst has burrowed into the uterine lining.
       ❗Implantation cramps are possible. Most likely to occur
       days 7-9.❗
       ❗Implantation bleeding is possible. ❗
       10-11 Days Post Ovulation
       As the placenta develops and releases increasing quantities of
       hCG hormone, the chances of the pregnancy test detecting
       pregnancy get better.
       12 Days Post Ovulation
       A coagulation plug forms to close the area where the blastocyst
       entered the endometrium. Implantation is now complete.
       14 Days Post Ovulation
       Levels of hCG are high enough to be detected by a home pregnancy
       test. However, a negative home pregnancy test may be a false
       negative. Though hCG may possibly be detected in the mother's
       blood from day 8 onward, it is usually tested for about 2 weeks
       after the day of fertilization.
       Implantation bleeding may occur anytime from day 9 onward when
       the developing placenta encroaches upon the mother's blood
       circulation, but if it occurs, generally coincides with the time
       of expected menstruation.
       15 - 21 Days Post Ovulation
       The fetus starts developing in length and a body cavity starts
       forming. The placenta gets better defined. The heart, brain, and
       intestines slowly start taking form.
       22 - 28 Days Post Ovulation
       The heart has its basic form and now starts beating. This can be
       seen on an ultrasound examination.
