I had to be very careful with my diet due to thyroid issues. Always check with your doctor during your regular follow-ups about what fruits are safe for you.

Honestly, I was sleeping during office meetings in my first few weeks! Progesterone spikes completely drain your energy. It is totally normal, so just cut yourself some slack and nap whenever you get time.

I had quite a bit of dark skin around my neck and face while pregnant, but it gradually lightened after I started breastfeeding. Just use a gentle moisturizer and stay hydrated. Your skin is doing a lot of work right now, be kind to it.

With my history of pregnancy loss, I was terrified of any stomach pain in the beginning. While mild stretching is normal, any intense pain or bleeding requires immediate medical attention. Please consult your doctor to be safe.

Absolutely, sleep as much as your body demands. In the first trimester, progesterone levels shoot up which makes you super tired. Don't fight it, just take quick naps whenever possible.
