I panicked when I accidentally ate raw cabbage salad early on, thinking it would harm the baby, but my doctor reassured me it's fine. She just told me to avoid raw sprouts and ensure all veggies are washed well. You'll be absolutely fine, don't worry!

Have patience and keep your heart positive. The best time is a few days after your missed period date. Pray, take care of your health, and test when your mind is calm.

The standard way is to add 280 days to the first day of your last period. However, the EDD given during your first trimester dating ultrasound is usually the most accurate. Definitely consult your doctor, they will confirm the exact date.

I remember being terrified of eating the wrong thing when I was pregnant! Just avoid the main culprits like raw papaya, Chinese food with MSG, and unpasteurized dairy. You'll get through this phase easily, just eat fresh and hot food.

Yaar, if onions weren't safe, half of India wouldn't be here because our basic tadka starts with onions! Eat them happily, just keep some mint handy for the pregnancy breath, haha.
