Let's be practical, you can't detect pregnancy in the first week as conception itself happens later. Don't waste time overanalyzing every minor body change. Just wait for your period date, and if it's missed by a day or two, do a quick home test in the morning.

Haha, I am in my 9th month now and honestly, the sleepiness that started in week 5 has still not left me! Get used to of taking sweet naps because you will need them.

Since I had thyroid, I had to keep my diet very clean and under check. Homemade golgappas are great because you can use boiled sprouts or chana for filling. Just ensure you discuss your overall diet during your regular doctor checkups.

I used to feel nauseous starting from week 5, and the smell of raw onion was my absolute enemy! I could only tolerate cold things like vanilla ice cream or aam panna. If you feel like vomiting, try sucking on a lemon candy, it worked like magic for me.

Honestly, 2nd week me safe side rehna hi best hai. Scale down your workout and don't do complex sunsalutations right now. Keep it light with simple walking, much easier to fit in a busy schedule too.
