My amma only understands Tamil and she keeps asking me what im feeling. I want to explain the early symptoms to her properly in Tamil. If anyone can share the words it would help a lot.
I'm also planning my pregnancy and was looking up 'Garbha arikurigala' online. Finding this information in Tamil makes it so much easier to discuss with my MIL and family, na. Which websites or apps do you guys recommend for Tamil content?
Actually, the most common ones are 'asorvu' which means fatigue, and 'vaandhi' which is vomiting. You can find very sweet and simple videos on Tamil parenting channels. I watched them during my first trimester and they were so encouraging!
My doctor explained that the key early signs are 'Vandhi' which is nausea, and 'Madhavidai Thallipodhal' meaning missed periods. In Tamil, these are referred to as 'Garbha Arikurigal'. You can read detailed regional health blogs or ask your doctor to explain in Tamil if you find English terms confusing.
Listen, simply search for 'pregnancy symptoms in Tamil' or 'Garpini Arikurigal' on Google, you will get simple lists. Mostly it is just missed periods, breast pain, and morning tiredness. No need to get confused, just do a home test once your period is late.
Please be very careful and don't just rely on internet translations for symptoms. For early signs or 'karpathin arikurigal', please talk to a Tamil-speaking gynac if possible. Having had a painful loss before, I always suggest consulting a doctor who can guide you clearly in your own language.
Don't worry too much! If you want to know about early symptoms in Tamil, search for 'Garpini Arikurigal' on YouTube, there are very helpful videos. I used to panic at every small cramp, but watching those regional videos really calmed me down.
