Ask them if 'forgetting where you put your keys' is normal, because pregnancy brain is real! On a serious note, do ask about safe sleeping positions and what exercises you can do.

Honestly, I used to eat apples and bananas like crazy because my brain was too tired to chop anything else! Seb, kela, and anar are amazing during pregnancy. Just make sure you wash them really well, and please don't eat papaya or pineapple because my gynac strictly told me to avoid those.

Trust me, skip the kitchen science experiments unless you want to mess up your countertops! Just buy a proper test kit, it's cheap and saves so much tension.

I totally understand your hesitation in asking this, I was also terrified of doing anything that might hurt the baby. Honestly, it is completely normal and safe at 15 weeks if your pregnancy is low-risk. Just listen to your body and don't stress.

I had a weird metallic taste in my mouth and started feeling slightly nauseous very early on. If you start feeling sick, try sucking on a small piece of ginger or lemon, it really helps.
