I am currently in my second trimester and planning a short road trip, but I am feeling a bit anxious about the bumps. Did anyone else travel by car around this time? My doctor said it's fine, but I still feel nervous!

Please don't take any calcium supplements on your own, always ask your gynac first. I had some issues in my last pregnancy so I am very careful now. Let your doctor check your blood reports and decide what is best.

Haan, mere saath bhi aisa hota tha early weeks mein, bilkul tight lagta tha stomach. Actually, body changes ho rahe hote hain na, isliye normal hai. Par haan, agar bohot tez pain ho ya bleeding dikhe, toh seedha doctor ko phone ghumana, risk nahi lene ka.

For diagnosing this, the doctor usually suggests an NT scan along with a double marker blood test in the first trimester. I remember being quite nervous during those scans, but the doctors are very gentle. Talk to your gynac to guide you through the process.

Most trackers and doctors suggest avoiding strongly scented intimate washes due to pH changes during pregnancy. If you really want to use one, ask your doctor for a mild, lactic acid-based wash. Water is usually more than enough though!
