I am also trying to prepare my body right now, and thoda shy feel hota hai discussing this. I have started taking folic acid after asking my doctor, and I am trying to eat more homemade food.

Aap iske liye apne gynac se suggestion lijiye, pregnancy me self-medicate karna safe nahi hai.

Don't waste money on buying Otrivin or getting tests done for a simple cold. Just use a steam inhaler at home and put normal saline drops which cost hardly 20-30 rupees and are completely safe. Always consult your government hospital doctor or gynac if it doesn't go away.

I panicked so much when I had to fly in my 6th week! But my gynac reassured me it's totally normal, just don't rush and take your seat comfortably.

Honestly, don't waste time on home tricks like salt or toothpaste tests, they are not reliable at all. Just buy a simple 50-rupee Prega News kit from the local chemist, it gives the most accurate result in 2 minutes.
