It is weeks 1 to 13 for the first, 14 to 27 for the second, and 28 to 40 for the third trimester. I remember tracking each phase so carefully, and now my baby is already on breastmilk! Enjoy every week because the time flies by.

I used a pregnancy app to track my daily steps and do 15-minute low-impact workouts. It kept me motivated and active throughout. Just ensure you log your energy levels and don't overdo it on low-energy days!

Yes absolutely, diabetes doesn't stop men from making babies! My husband is diabetic and look at us, we ended up with twins, lol. But yes, keeping his sugar levels in control with a good diet and exercise definitely helps improve sperm quality.

During IVF, every single tablet is so crucial and we only stop when the doctor explicitly tells us. Generally, folic acid is taken through the first trimester, but please consult your specialist before making any changes.

Folic acid is the building block for baby's cells. I made sure to take it daily along with my light walking routine which the doctor allowed. Keeping your body active and getting the right nutrients is the best combination.
