Pregnancy & Parenting Fertile phaseFertility

Fertilisation (fertilization in American usage of English) is the meeting between an egg and a spermatozoon. The egg is able to be impregnated during 24 hours from when it leaves the follicle.

 


In IVF (in vitro fertilisation) your eggs are fertilised with your partner's sperm in a laboratory then placed back in your womb.

In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a major treatment in infertility in which egg cells are fertilised by sperms outside the womb by artificial means and resultant embryo is then put into the womb for further maturation.

Conception (fertilisation of the egg) normally occurs in the outer end of the tube and the fertilised egg then moves down the tube to the uterus.

On the 5th day after fertilisation, most of the cells in the morula start to move to one side, creating a bunched up group of cells on one side and a sac of fluid (that the baby will float in).

Your due date is not calculated from your fertile times or from when you had sex, as there are several days around ovulation when fertilisation could have taken place.

Fraternal siblings result from the fertilisation and implantation of more than one egg, so fraternal siblings are not genetically identical. Multiple eggs are released or there is more than one ovulation.

Breasts start to react to the fertilisation of the egg because of hormones, before your first period is missed. Your body assumes you're going to be breastfeeding.
