My nani keeps saying you can tell from the pulse near the navel. Sounds like a desi totka but im curious haan. Does anyone actually know how this is done?
Why get into complicated pulse counting when you can easily get a Prega News kit at any local pharmacy? It's cheap, fast, and actually works. Just test with morning urine.
My dadi used to say old ladies could tell pregnancy by looking at the pulse, but my mother insisted on modern ways. It's much safer to just use a proper test kit from the medical store to be absolutely sure.
Pulse rate can fluctuate due to thyroid or stress too, so it's not a reliable pregnancy test. My doctor always insisted on scientific tests. If your period is late, do a urine test and schedule a doctor's visit.
I know how desperately we want to find out early, and the suspense can make us try all kinds of methods. But please don't stress over pulse tracking, it's not accurate. Waiting to take a proper urine test is much better for peace of mind.
My pulse was racing just from the anxiety of wondering if i'm pregnant! Jokes apart, your heart does pump more blood, but checking pulse won't give you a double line. Just buy a standard pregnancy kit from the chemist.
Honestly, tracking your pulse is not a reliable way at all. Don't waste your time guessing when a simple 50-rupee home test kit can give you a clear answer in 5 minutes.
Blood flow and heart rate change, but trying to diagnose pregnancy by pulse isn't accurate. It's better to focus on healthy eating from the start and take a reliable home test to confirm.
With my PCOS, my body already played so many tricks on me, so i never trusted these traditional pulse methods. Your resting heart rate can go up a bit in pregnancy, but it's not a sure sign. Please rely on a home test or blood test instead.
