At 1 week, it's way too early for a scan to show anything at all. While you wait for the right time, just focus on keeping your body active with basic light walking if your doctor allows. Don't stress too much about early scans, just maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Listen, don't confuse weeks with months. Pregnancy is 40 weeks, counted right from your last period's start date. So if your last period started 5 weeks ago, you are considered 5 weeks pregnant today, simple as that.

Oh, I panicked so much thinking why am I feeling so lazy and tired all the time in the beginning. But my doctor assured me it's just the progesterone doing its work, and it actually got much better in the second trimester, so relax, it's very normal!

Do it first thing in the morning! I remember testing while craving hot samosas, and when it came positive, my celebrations started with food, haha. Just follow the package instructions carefully.

Having gone through a long IVF journey, I know that just having a healthy baby is the biggest blessing. In India, gender determination is legally banned, so we can never know during pregnancy. Let's focus on sending positive vibes to your little one's growth.
