Just found out im pregnant, still feels unreal. This is my first time so i really dont know what all i should be careful about from now. Food, work, travel.. pls share what u did in the starting.
Start folic acid right away, eat home cooked balanced food, avoid raw and street stuff, and rest enough. Book your first gynac visit and get the basic blood tests done. That's the foundation, rest doc will guide.
Stay calm and positive, the mind matters more than people think. Eat well, take your folic acid, and trust your doctor for the rest. Sending you good wishes for this journey.
I used a pregnancy app to track my weeks and appointments, super handy for remembering tests. Folic acid daily, good sleep, and ask before taking ANY medicine. Small habits add up.
My mother said eat warm fresh food and rest well, and she wasn't wrong. I added the folic acid my doctor gave. Keep stress low and go for your checkups regularly, that combination really helped me.
Main things are folic acid, staying hydrated, avoiding alcohol and smoking around you, and not self medicating. Everything else like exercise or diet, let your doctor tailor it to you in the first visit.
Take it easy, don't lift heavy things, eat properly and sleep on time. Avoid crash diets and random medicines. And see your gynac early so you start on the right track. You'll be fine.
