I've heard so much about these legendary pregnancy mood swings from my married friends! Honestly, it sounds so exhausting but completely valid with all the hormonal changes. I am preparing myself mentally for this roller coaster once I conceive!

Normally, tests might not show accurate results so early. But if you have heavy bleeding or severe pain, please don't ignore it and check with your doctor immediately. For now, try sipping some warm ginger tea and rest.

My mother used to suggest drinking warm ginger tea or resting for headaches instead of pills. Combiflam is usually not recommended in pregnancy. Please trust your gynac and ask them for a safe prescription.

Beta, baby's skin color is decided by nature and genetics, so we cannot change it. But to keep your own skin glowing and healthy during these months, you can apply a gentle homemade ubtan of besan and milk cream. Avoid any strong chemical fairness creams as they are not safe during pregnancy.

I see this question a lot here, and my best advice is to stick to natural things. Hot ginger-tulsi tea and warm water gargles work wonders. If you get a high fever along with it, then don't wait and consult your doctor immediately.
