Oh I just had my baby last month! We usually count from the first day of your last period, not the conception date. That's what my hospital counted too, it's called LMP. But honestly the doctor's dating scan is the ultimate real measure.

Just drown yourself in water (not literally!) and cut back on those salty chips. But seriously, do give a quick call to your doc to make sure your BP is fine.

Oh, I actually had a mild urine infection last month and it was so uncomfortable! The doctor said pregnancy hormones relax the urinary tract, making it easier for bacteria to grow. Has anyone else here had to deal with UTIs during their second trimester?

I know exactly how scary it feels, but trust your doctor. I was on Duphaston till 12 weeks while puking my guts out every single day. Once the doctor checked the ultrasound and saw the placenta was fully ready, they safely stopped it.

Beta, nowadays medical science has progressed so much, so you should talk to a doctor about treatments like IUI. Along with that, pay attention to your diet, have ghar ka healthy food, and keep your mind calm. Taking care of your health from the start helps a lot.
