With twins, my doctor put a strict no-sex rule very early to avoid preterm labor. If you are carrying multiples or have a high-risk pregnancy, definitely ask your gynac first.

When I missed my period, I told my mom and she lovingly advised me to wait a couple of days before taking the home test. It was such a special moment when we finally saw those two lines. Try to wait for your missed period date.

Since I had PCOS, I was extremely cautious about everything I consumed. Eno has high sodium content which can cause swelling or blood pressure issues, especially in the 8th month. It’s really better to ask your gynac for a safe antacid gel instead of having Eno.

Generally, short and smooth car trips are fine, but long journeys or bumpy train rides should be avoided in the first month. It is always best to check with your doctor first to ensure everything is stable.

Practically speaking, testing 10 days before is just a waste of money and time. The HCG levels are too low to detect. Save your energy, focus on work, and test on the day of your missed period.
