My father used to make me do gentle ankle rotations, and my mother would rub warm mustard oil on my calves. It made a huge difference.

It means the doctor can feel the baby's position or your fundal height with their hands on your tummy. I remember my gynac doing this to check the baby's head position before my C-section. It is a completely routine thing.

Oh god, yes! The bloating and breast tenderness are exactly the same. Don't stress too much trying to spot the difference, just wait for your period date and take a test.

It is very natural to feel warmer because of the hormonal changes and progesterone support. I remember feeling so anxious about my body heat during my IVF two-week wait. Please stay hydrated and rest as much as you can, you are doing great.

Pregnancy happens when a husband and wife have relations during the woman's most fertile days of the month. My mother always said to keep a peaceful environment at home during this time so that things happen smoothly. Take care of your health and stay happy.
