My doctor explained that pregnancy hormones relax the urinary tract, making us more prone to UTIs. She advised me to drink at least 3 liters of water daily and wipe from front to back. Also, never hold your pee because it lets bacteria grow.
Having PCOS made my periods highly irregular, so I couldn't rely on a missed period. A beta-hCG blood test and a doctor's ultrasound scan are the only foolproof ways to confirm pregnancy safely.
I used to eat omelets or boiled eggs almost every single day, and now my little toddler is so active and strong! Don't stress too much about the small details. Just enjoy your meals and make sure they are cooked well.
When I registered at my hospital, the staff explained that progesterone keeps the lining intact to nourish the baby, hence no periods. If you have any spotting or bleeding though, call your hospital immediately. They are always there to guide you.
Thyroid is like that one uninvited guest who needs constant monitoring! Just get a quick blood test and let your doctor handle the dose adjustment.
