In my first pregnancy, I kept waiting to feel nauseous because everyone talked about it, but I felt absolutely nothing. It made me so nervous, but my first ultrasound showed a perfectly healthy baby!

You can either book a beta-hCG test directly through apps like Tata 1mg or visit a lab. However, it is always better to consult your gynac first so they can write the prescription and guide you on what the specific hormone levels mean for your pregnancy week.

Agree with others, focus on fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, and definitely start your folic acid.

Totally agree with the home-cooked food advice. Having fresh curd daily really helped me manage my acidity throughout the nine months.

Actually, when I asked my hospital desk about these government schemes, they were super helpful. Even premium hospitals have a dedicated helpdesk or desk staff who know exactly how to guide you for PMMVY or state schemes. Just ask your gynac's coordinator on your next visit, they will give u the exact steps.
