I had severe bleeding due to a subchorionic hematoma and had to be put on immediate progesterone support and bed rest. Trying natural remedies can be extremely dangerous here. Please go to the emergency room or see your doctor immediately.

Our elders often tell us to avoid it entirely out of fear, but medically it's safe. My MIL was very traditional, so I just quietly asked my doctor in the cabin. The doctor said it was perfectly fine since my pregnancy was normal.

I am currently planning my pregnancy and was reading about how crucial iron is. Most docs seem to start it around the second trimester, but I guess it depends on your blood reports. It's always best to ask your gynac for the exact schedule that suits you.

Baby weight doesn't mean you eat junk food or double portions. Eat quality protein—paneer, dals, eggs, and milk. Keep taking your doctor-prescribed vitamins and let the baby grow at their own pace.

Been there twice, so listen closely. Stop straining in the washroom, its not good for u. Eat two bananas daily and switch to whole wheat or oats instead of maida. If nothing works, just ask your gynac for a safe syrup, don't suffer quietly.
