I read a lot of medical articles about this, and my gynac confirmed that by week 17, the baby is about 5 inches long. They are developing a layer of protective fat under their skin, and their heart is now regulated by the brain, beating at around 140-150 beats per minute.
Try chewing some saunf or dry ginger candies when u feel sick, it really works. But if you are vomiting too much and not even able to keep water down, please call your gynac immediately. Extreme dehydration is not good for baby.
Listen, the main rule is no pressure on your stomach, so the missionary position is a big no. Side-lying or being on top are much safer options to try. Also, just make sure your doctor hasn't advised complete bed rest or mentioned any issues like a low-lying placenta.
Honestly, just talk to your baby and caress your belly. When I was resting post my C-section, I realized how much my baby recognized my voice from when he was inside. Staying calm and talking to them works wonders.
Honestly, trying to lose a pregnancy naturally at home is highly unsafe and can cause severe medical complications like heavy bleeding. Please do not try any home methods. You must visit a gynecologist immediately to guide you safely.
