Haan dear, most home kits can detect it on the day of your missed period. If you get a faint line, just repeat the test after two days with the first morning urine.

Yes, it is perfectly fine and safe! My husband and I had a normal active life during pregnancy and I had a healthy normal delivery too. Just keep things gentle and focus on your comfort levels.

I felt so confused about this during my first pregnancy! I conceived just a few days after my period got over because my ovulation happened early that month. It was such an emotional surprise for us when we saw the two lines!

Yes, excess sugar can lead to gestational diabetes and high birth weight for the baby. You don't need to cut it out completely, but keep your portions in check. Moderation is key.

Personally, I had a high BMI when I got pregnant and was really scared. My doctor just kept a closer eye on my sugar and BP levels throughout the months, and luckily everything went smoothly for me. It really depends on how you manage your daily food and activity.
