I wish I had felt hungry! I had terrible morning sickness and couldn't keep anything down in the early days. If your body is asking for food, please eat in small, frequent portions so you don't feel bloated later.

With twin pregnancy, everything was double the discomfort! Yes, lube is safe, just make sure it's water-based. Anything that makes life easier during these months is a win.

Meri saas always counts by lunar months and gets confused with the weekly calculations the docs do! But ghar pe sab kehte hain check-up is best. It's better to just go with whatever your gynecologist writes on your file.

I used to panic that my husband would get frustrated because my libido crashed completely in the first trimester. It is a very normal phase due to pure exhaustion and nausea. Once she feels more energetic in the second trimester, things usually get back to normal naturally.

I also felt my body was burning up in the beginning and I got so anxious that I had a fever! But it was just the progesterone hormone doing its work. Try to stay calm, it's a very common symptom.
