Oh, I absolutely crave fresh green coriander chutney with my hot parathas these days! Normal dhaniya used in everyday cooking is totally safe and adds so much flavor when you have tasteless tongue. Just ensure the leaves are washed thoroughly to remove any dirt!

When my period got late, my mother-in-law told me to test quietly in the morning before anyone woke up. I used the standard Prega News kit with the first urine of the day and got a clear positive. It was such a happy moment for the whole family.

The beta hCG blood test is super precise. I used to track my ovulation on my app, and when my period was delayed by 3 days, the blood test confirmed the exact numbers. You can even track how the hCG doubles every 48 hours to be sure, it's very helpful!

My pregnancy app tracker constantly reminded me to sleep on my left side! I bought a C-shaped pregnancy pillow and it was a total game changer for side sleeping. You should definitely try it.

I felt so overwhelmed when we found out! For me, we came to know during our very first ultrasound scan around the 8th week. Hearing those two tiny heartbeats was the most emotional moment of my life, I actually cried in the clinic.
