Himani Nair

Ah, that feels like a lifetime ago now that I am in my 3rd trimester and struggling to even put on my shoes! It is done between 11 and 14 weeks. Just a quick blood test and ultrasound, then you can check it off your massive to-do list.

When I was pregnant, my hemoglobin dropped thoda, so I started eating spinach, lentils, and dates regularly. It really helped build my strength for breastfeeding later on. Just be regular with your iron pills as recommended by your gynac.

Listen, don't stress too much about HR. It's just a job! Just tell them you want to resign due to family/health priorities and ask about your pending leaves. Keep it sweet but firm.

Please don't rely on such methods, it can lead to unnecessary hope or worry. I highly recommend doing a proper home test kit once your period is missed, and then consulting a doctor.

I love BBW candles but got a bit scared about the chemicals. Are soy-based candles a much safer alternative during this time?
