It is basically 9 months and one week. If people ask you at home, just say 9 months completed! Don't confuse yourself too much with exact days, just keep your hospital bag ready by week 37 and stay relaxed.

Extreme fatigue is a classic early symptom, but please mention it to your gynac on your first visit. Sometimes low iron or thyroid issues can also cause excessive sleepiness, so a basic blood check is good.

For most women, food aversions wrap up by the 14th week as the second trimester kicks in. Till then, don't force yourself to cook or eat heavy meals if you can't stand the smell. Just stick to basic dry toast or simple dal rice to keep your energy up for work.

Mata rani sab theek karengi par dawai aur doctor ki salah sabse pehle hai. BP high ho toh seedha gynac ko dikhana chahiye. Aap bhagwan pe bharosa rakho, thoda deep breathing karo aur doc se mil lo jake.

I read online that low Vitamin D can cause low birth weight and even preeclampsia, which completely freaked me out! I immediately asked my doctor to test my levels and yes, they were quite low. Please get your levels checked early on so you can start supplements safely and don't have to worry like I did.
