I'm really worried and curious about something that happened recently. Is it possible to feel early pregnancy symptoms like stomach pain, nausea, and fatigue just two days after having intercourse? I know it's super early, but I've been feeling off and can't help but wonder if these could be signs of pregnancy. Can such symptoms show up that quickly, or am I just imagining things?

I'm an expecting mom and I'm really hoping to have a healthy baby. I've been trying my best to eat nutritious foods and drink plenty of healthy juices. I'm curious if there's any truth to the idea that you can follow a special diet during pregnancy to help ensure a fair-skinned baby. Can you help clarify if there's anything specific I should be doing or eating?
