im about 7 weeks along and this is our first. both of us are a little scared that it might harm the baby or cause something. is it actually safe this early? pls share your experience.
I felt scared it might harm the baby in early weeks. My doctor reassured me it's fine if everything is normal. Honestly the bigger issue for me was nausea killing all the mood, haha.
Generally yes if your pregnancy is uncomplicated. If you notice any spotting or cramps after, mention it at your next visit. When in doubt, your gynac's clearance is the safest.
I'll be honest, after my loss my doctor asked us to be careful in the first trimester for my peace of mind. Every case is different so please just ask your own gynac, there's no harm in checking.
In a normal healthy pregnancy it's usually safe right through, including early days. But if you've had bleeding, a previous miscarriage or your doc said no, then hold off and ask her.
