My hospital coordinator told me that home urine tests are most accurate after a missed period. If you get a positive, just call your clinic and they will guide you on the next steps and blood tests.

I remember being so anxious during my time, counting every single day! Now that my little one is running around, I realize how fast time flies. Yes, blood tests can detect it about a week after conception, so stay calm.

I am planning a pregnancy soon and honestly the list of scans feels so overwhelming! Dating scan, NT, Anomaly... do we really have to do all of these? It's good to know which ones are absolutely mandatory.

Bleeding can happen sometimes, like light spotting during implantation, but it's not something to ignore. With twins, I was on high alert for everything! Honestly, any bleeding should be reported to your doctor immediately just to be safe.

I'm in my 5th month and just caught a bad cold, and I'm honestly so worried about whether the constant sneezing will affect the baby. Did anyone else experience this during their second trimester? I'm just doing steam inhalation for now but the anxiety is real.
