Do's and don ts during 1st trimester of pregnancy?
Just found out im pregnant, must be around 5-6 weeks. So happy but also nervous because i dont know what all to be careful about in these early months. Can you ladies share what u did and avoided in first trimester?
Eat, sleep, take your vitamins, and dont stress too much yaar. The first trimester is tiring so go easy on yourself. Skip the alcohol and random meds and you're basically doing great.
Do start your folic acid, eat small frequent meals and rest plenty. Dont take any random medicine, avoid heavy lifting and cut down on raw or street food. Honestly first trimester is mostly about surviving the nausea and not overthinking.
I was so scared of doing something wrong in my first trimester. Did everyone feel this paranoid too? I just kept it simple, ate well, rested and asked my doctor before anything new.
My gynac listed it clearly, do take prenatal vitamins, stay hydrated, sleep well and attend the first scan and blood tests. Dont smoke, no alcohol, avoid self medication and very hot baths. She said gentle movement is good but skip risky activities.
