Baby:
Implantation will occur this week! The egg and the sperm have met in your fallopian tube and will begin the 4-7 day journey to the uterus. Cell division begins immediately and continues throughout this journey. Once in the uterus, it is generally about 72 hours before implantation occurs. Once it has implanted your baby is called a blastocyst and is about 0.1-0.2 mm in diameter.
Dad:
You're probably blissfully unaware of what is going on at this point. Or you might be anxiously awaiting the results of the pregnancy test. Either way continue with good habits previously started or work towards forming new habits.
