I know how stressful it is to worry if even a small product could harm the baby. Simple water-based lubricants are safe, but if you're too worried, just ask your doctor once to ease your mind.

Mild backaches and light stretching pain in the sides are normal. Sharp or constant pain is not.

I remember crying before my first appointment thinking something might be wrong, but it was so simple and normal. They just ask standard questions, calculate your due date, and write some basic vitamins like folic acid. Just go with an open mind, you will feel so relieved after meeting your gynac.

Yes dear, figs are excellent for pregnant women, especially if you have mild constipation. Just soak 1 or 2 pieces of dried anjeer in water overnight and have them first thing in the morning. It works like magic and gives good iron too.

Don't break your head trying to calculate months manually, it gets confusing because months have different days. Just download a good pregnancy app, input your LMP date, and it does the calculation for you instantly.
