Nidhi Madhavan

Since I just had my baby, I know how demanding parenthood is, so postponing until you are ready is a great choice. My doctor guided me on postpartum family planning during my regular checks. Do book a consultation with your gynac to discuss safe methods.

Hey, listen, don't stress too much about this! So many plus-size women have perfectly healthy pregnancies. Just focus on eating clean, staying active, and let your doctor guide you.

Usually our elders say we shouldn't shift houses or do Griha Pravesh during pregnancy to avoid any stress. But actually, my doctor said it is totally fine as long as you do not do any heavy lifting or stress yourself out. Just make sure you take enough rest and listen to your body.

Basically, avoid anything that your doctor hasn't personally approved, even basic gas or headache tablets! With twins, I had twice the aches, but my doctor's list was my holy book. Better safe than sorry!

I am 37 and pregnant with my first baby right now, currently in my 2nd trimester! I was so anxious about my age initially, but my doctor has been super reassuring. Are there any other first-time moms here who conceived in their late 30s?
